Kamala chugs beer with Stephen Colbert as she lectures hurricane victims and lashes 'loser' Trump over misinformation

Kamala Harris continued her media blitz by letting her hair down and chugging a beer with Stephen Colbert on CBS' 'The Late Show' Tuesday night.

Progressive darling Colbert, who briefly ended a vacation week to do an all-new episode with Harris amid a week of reruns, pitched the idea to Harris by stating that 2024 was a 'vibes election.'

'Elections, I think, are won on vibes,' he said. 'Because one of the old saws is they just want somebody they can have a beer with. So... would you like to have a beer with me so I can tell people what that's like?'

Colbert then pulled out a couple of cans of Miller High Life, which the vice president had apparently requested. 

Harris, apparently delighted, confessed the last time she'd had a beer was at a baseball game with her husband Doug Emhoff.

After taking a sip and toasting with Colbert, she proudly announced Miller High Life's decades-old slogan: 'The champagne of beers!'

Harris again referred to Donald Trump as a 'loser' who has said 'he wants to be a dictator on day one' on Howard Stern earlier Tuesday.  

'Understand what dictators do,' she added. 'They jail journalists, they put people who are protesting in the street in jail.' 

Harris slammed Trump for refusing to accept the results of the 2020 election by saying what some of the people at her rallies had been saying. 

'When you've lost millions of jobs, you lost manufacturing, you lost automotive plans, what does that make you? A loser,' she said.

Harris then laughed and said: 'This is what happens when I drink beer!' 

Trump spokesperson Steven Cheung responded with a social media post, not finding it amusing.

'Kamala drinks a beer to show Americans how relatable she is, but she ends up looking like an out-of-touch elitist trying to gaslight everyone into thinking she's one of them,' he wrote.

'Regular people don't allow murderers, rapists, and terrorists across the border-- like Kamala has done.'

She later went on a lengthy rant about Trump sending COVID tests to Vladimir Putin during the pandemic.

'He thinks Vladimir Putin is his friend! What about the American people? Shouldn't they be your first friend?' 

Earlier in the chat, she lectured Republicans for spreading 'misinformation' about the state of FEMA in the reaction to Hurricane Helene. 

'First of all, to all of those folks in North Carolina and Georgia, please know that people on the ground with FEMA are there to help you, you are entitled to it. There's a lot of information and I beseech you, I beg you not to listen to it.'

Harris is continuing her media tour Tuesday with three more interviews for national audiences, with Election Day now just four weeks away.

The Democratic presidential nominee appeared in New York with the women of 'The View,' spoke with radio host Howard Stern, and taped a show with late-night comedian Colbert. 

The trio of appearances comes after Harris granted interviews to CBS´ '60 Minutes,' which aired Monday night, and Anderson Cooper´s podcast, which was released Sunday.

The blitz comes after Harris has largely avoided interviews since replacing President Joe Biden at the top of the Democratic ticket. 

Long past the midway point of her unexpected presidential campaign and with voting already underway, Harris is still introducing herself to Americans who will determine her fate in this year´s presidential election.

Harris came out to raucous applause and chants of her first name, with the vice president pleased that everyone had pronounced it correctly.

She claimed that the 'whirlwind campaign' she's run in the past few months hasn't felt particularly short.

'The one thing I can report back from the field is people are exhausted by that old, tired playbook of Donald Trump's and even if they voted for him in the past they've had enough of the rhetoric. It's like, let's chart a new way forward,' she said.

'A lot of Americans are ready for a new generation of leadership that is about solutions and common sense and that is what I am offering.'

She also joked that her amused reaction to Trump's performance at their debate weeks ago was, essentially, 'WTF?'

'It starts with a W, there's a letter in between and the last letter is F,' she said, while giving her trademark cackle. 

Harris returned to many of her talking points about an 'opportunity economy' when pressed by Colbert on how she would be a change from the administration she's currently a part of. 

'I'm obviously not Joe Biden. That would be one change. I think it's important to say with 28 days to go, I'm not Donald Trump,' Harris said.

'It is about, frankly, I love the American people and I believe in our country. I love that it is our character and nature to be an ambitious people. We have aspirations, we have dreams, we have incredible work ethic. I just believe that we can create and build on the success we've achieved,' she added.

She also spoke about her shared commonalities with Tim Walz, calling him 'like the people I grew up with' and said he would be a 'great vice president.'

Harris also said that war in the Middle East has 'got to end' and that there needs to be a deal where Israel ceases fire while Hamas gives up the remaining hostages. 

She hedged on a question about swing state Pennsylvania when asked if she preferred the Philadelphia Eagles or the Pittsburgh Steelers, opting for her hometown San Francisco 49ers.
