High-energy Kamala works out every day. Don’t you think it’s time for a president under 65 who can lift a glass of water and walk down a ramp?

While she’s super busy helping to run the country, the 59-year-old has made it clear that staying health is a priority for her. So, what does Harris do for wellness? Here’s everything she’s publicly shared about her routine.

Exercise is super important to Harris, and she’ll work up a sweat, even when she’s wiped.

“I work out every morning, regardless of how much sleep I’ve had,” she told former President Barack Obama in a 2020 interview. “It’s just the best way to start the day.”

      i think in the context of replacing her predecessor for health reasons it’s at least a little relevant

      This is political because:

      • Both parties have been messaging about age and overall fitness of the candidates, especially Biden, for the last year (technically approaching 6 years, 9 if you count Bernie’s run-up in 2015/16) with increased messaging and pressure over the last month.
      • This is establishing that Kamala Harris is “young”, “fit”, and “mentally sound”.
      • This is messaging she’s capable of doing the job where Biden was precieved he wasn’t due to the above criteria.
      • This is messaging she’s a better candidate in terms of health & wellness over Trump.

      That said, Biden is an avid cyclist and goes on regular bike rides, even at his age and political status (COVID and other passing illnesses aside). However, most people weren’t aware of Biden’s fitness routine and extra-cirruclars.

    I heard Kamala Harris is so comfortable putting felons behind bars that she routinely works out in the toughest prison yards. I mean really rough, lifting the heaviest weights they have. Giant men with rippling muscles run up to her, with tears in their eyes, saying “Ma’am, your gainz are so yuge.” It’s beautiful.

      I don’t know where you’re going with this post, but I do like the idea it inspires of voting in Kamala to allow her to ensure one last convicted felon sees jail time.
