Thanks! I still think it's a statement by her campaign and not her, but I guess that's splitting hairs.

Technically it's signed Harris Walz.

Technically it has their campaign logo on it. ;) Yeah I know I'm being annoying. Obviously this statement is associated with her and the campaign in an official manner. It just doesn't have the polish I would expect from a politician's official statement. That's all. I'm probably reading too much into it.

I think it's a huge part of the Democrats' collective messaging, which they really sucked at previously. They're very purposely ratcheting up from their Ben Stein levels of excitement, and I think it's resonating with people.

There’s a comment in this thread commending the casual, non-robotic tone of the messaging.

Such a low bar, right?

I think that's an intentional choice by her campaign. I've seen other stuff by KamalaHQ that has the same tone. It's smart. More relatable is better.

Exactly right, KamalaHQ has a very distinct tone. It's probably very intentional on the part of their campaign to use an official account but not one under her name specifically to post these types of things.
