It was a real snoozefest.
Former Vice President Kamala Harris put a saxophonist to sleep on stage Wednesday during a rant against the Trump administration at an awards dinner.
Overtaken by fatigue, or boredom, the drowsy horn player drifted off right as Harris warned that “people would take to the streets if they tried to cancel elections,” video from the Public Counsel’s William O. Douglas Award Dinner in Beverly Hills, Calif., obtained by TMZ, showed.
The footage, taken by an audience member, showed the musician had his eyes closed and head down for nearly a minute, all while sitting just a few feet from the failed 2024 Democratic presidential nominee onstage.
“They have had an agenda that has been in place for decades to get to this very moment and beyond, which is to make it so difficult for the people to vote that they won’t,” Harris raged, as the saxophonist snored.
She continued, “Because they know the people are not stupid and see the corrupt, incompetent, callous administration that is in the White House right now, and they are so damn scared of losing the midterms.”
The jazz player roused himself awake, it appears, just in time to play Harris off the stage.
The former vice president had received the William O. Douglas Award from the lefty nonprofit law firm and was having an onstage discussion with Emmy-award-winning actress Uzo Aduba.
During the chat, Harris argued that Democrats “need to be ruthless” in countering Republicans.
She also admitted Democratic politicians “dropped the ball in a variety of ways” and urged people to “challenge the status quo and fight the system on behalf of the people.”
