Charlamagne Tha God, host of The Breakfast Club, voiced strong opinions on Vice President Kamala Harris' campaign tactics after her team reached out to popular influencer Kai Cenat for a potential livestream collaboration. 

This move came shortly after former President Donald Trump's notable appearance with streamer Adin Ross. 

"Hit me and tell me who sent you that text man because whoever on Vice President Kamala Harris' team hit Kai Cenat to do a live stream, they need to be fired," Charlamagne stated, criticizing the decision as a reactive measure to social media pressures rather than a strategic campaign move.

Charlamagne further speculated that unlike Ross, Cenat does not hold a genuine interest in politics, which could misalign with the campaign’s objectives. 

He underscored that while it's crucial for politicians to connect with the electorate where they are, such interactions need to resonate authentically with both the influencer's audience and the political figure’s agenda. 

He suggested alternative platforms like The 85 South Show, which might offer a more fitting audience demographic for Harris.

In related election updates, Vice President Harris announced Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz as her running mate during an event at Temple University, marking their first public appearance together since the announcement.
