Kamala Harris Admits She Was 'Sleep Deprived' When She Chose Tim Walz as Running Mate

Vice President Kamala Harris admitted she was suffering from insomnia when she selected Minnesota Governor Tim Walz as her running mate.

Harris revealed her lack of sleep during a chaotic few weeks in July during the “All The Smoke” podcast with basketball players Matt Barnes and Stephen Jackson.

WokesSpy reports:

“From the time that the president called me and told me he wasn’t running, I mean, it’s just like everything was in speedy, speedy motion, and I was not sleeping so well,” Harris said on the podcast.

“And that one morning I just, I mean, I had, I don’t know, a few hours’ sleep – and I, you know, I like to sleep. I just got up. I was like – so I just went out and got a pork roast and started marinating it.”

“And my family were all going to be in town, so they were very happy about the whole situation, but I just got up and started — everybody’s asleep, I just got up and started cooking,” she continued.

Harris’ lack of sleep also contributed to her “gut” decision to pick Walz as her running mate.

Through cooking, Harris eased her nerves on the morning of Tuesday, Aug. 6 before later announcing the Minnesota Gov. had joined the Democratic ticket.

Perhaps a “sleepy Kamala” nickname is in the works?
