Kamala Harris’ husband Douglas Emhoff has been called the greenest flag as he’s played the role of the supportive husband as Kamala fights for the top job. At the Democratic National Convention where Kamala Harris officially accepted the nomination as the party’s presidential candidate, Doug gave a heartwarming speech calling Kama a warrior, a joyful warrior who has been there for the children and will be there for America’s children too.He told his love story, how he was set up on a blind date with Kamala Harris and how he left a voicemail to her at 8.30 am etc.
In his recent interview with MSNBC, he was told that he unwittingly reshaped the perception masculinity. He was asked whether his role as a supportive spouse saw an evolution and whether he plans to play this role as the First Gentleman if Kamala Harris wins the election. “It’s funny. I have started to think a lot about it. I have always been like this. My dad was like this. To me it’s the right thing to do — support women — it’s mutual with Kamala, we support each other, we have each other’s back. I have said many times that when we lift up women whether it’s pay equity, childcare, family leave and all these issues…women should not have less rights. That’s not the American way. It’s also not like that if some women succeed, some dudes there are suffering. It’s not one-to-one relationship. When we lift up women, we lift up families, economy,” Doug said.
He was called the ‘wife guy’ in the interview to which Doug reacted warmly and said he will show it to Kamala whenever she’s upset by him.
MAGA supporters attacked Doug and and reminded that he cheated on his first wife Kerstin Emhoff and made his children’s nanny pregnant. “Fun to watch ‘feminist’ celebrate Doug Emhoff as the perfect ‘wife guy’ after he slept with his daughter’s nanny, got her pregnant, paid for the abortion, and blew up his family,” one post read.
Far-right activist and Kamala Harris-hater Laura Loomer called Doug a “100% scumbug” and wrote, “Apparently getting your daughter’s teacher pregnant and pressuring her to likely have an abortion is masculine. @KamalaHarris’s campaign is still livid over that story I broke. They so badly wanted to pretend that @DouglasEmhoff wasn’t a scumbag. But you are 100% a scumbag if you knock your daughter’s teacher up when you’re married,” Loomer wrote.
Doug earlier admitted to have cheated on his first wife but now Kerstin Emhoff is also a part of the ‘modern family’ as Doug, Kerstin, Kamala shared the parenthood of Ella and Cole.
