Online Backlash: Sexist Joke Targeting Kamala Harris Faces Severe Criticism

Five Guys is gaining attention, but this is unrelated to the burger franchise or their peculiar burgers. Instead, it’s Trump supporters who are creating disturbing memes concerning Vice President Kamala Harris.

Following Trump’s brief visit to McDonald’s, Five Guys has become a topic of discussion for the wrong reasons. The former president’s backers have turned to Twitter, attempting to tarnish the Vice President’s image. One supporter tweeted, “BREAKING: Kamala Harris to visit Five Guys today. It’s uncertain if she’ll stop by a burger place as well.” Another user added, “While Trump is at McDonald’s, just wait for Kamala to go to Five Guys.” These tweets allude to Trump’s offensive comments about Harris, whom he has accused of promiscuity.

Several other crude memes depicted Vice President Harris in a distasteful manner. Despite these repulsive trends, numerous Twitter users expressed their disgust at the memes and the humor. One user sarcastically remarked, “This is exactly how you earn female support in this election. Keep it going.” Another commentator compared the GOP to a “degrading boys club” in response to the appalling tweets about Harris.

I was ready to give you the benefit of the doubt that you might have a serious message. It seems like all the frat boys in America have chosen to let their wild side show. Share with us in the RoTW if you ever decide to act like a serious country again.

A Ridiculous Joke

Some Trump supporters suggested that Harris would actually take a job at Five Guys to “mimic” Trump’s stunt.

No credible sources indicate that Kamala Harris is planning to “work” at a Five Guys. This was simply a sick joke circulating within the MAGA community. However, the line between reality and humor often blurs—particularly when Trump supporters find amusement in what they perceive as factual.

Harris is no stranger to vile memes and misinformation about her. Online trolls have falsely accused her of exchanging sexual favors for political advantages. Additionally, rumors surrounding Harris’s alleged affair with politician Willie Brown have circulated. Even though these rumors were debunked, the harm has already been inflicted. In contrast, Trump faces no scrutiny for his alleged one-night stands or confirmed infidelities. This highlights a glaring sexist double standard that distracts from the real issues that should command public attention.
