    Vice President Kamala Harris raised a number of eyebrows after video

    circulated of her recent tour of a semiconductor plant — where she

    asked employees whether or not she could touch something she described

    Harris, ramping up her campaign stops during the final days of the 2024

    presidential election, made a visit to Hemlock Semiconductors in

    Saginaw, Michigan, where she got the chance to see newly harvested

    silicon laid out on a table.

    “Here is, actually, a harvested U-rod,” an employee wearing a hard hat

    informed the Democratic Party’s presidential nominee. “We actually do

    grow it, so this is what it looks like when it comes out of the water

    processing bag —”

    Harris reached out a hand toward the rod, which was covered in plastic,

    and hesitated, asking, “Can I touch it?”

    The response was immediate: “No! Do not touch it!”

    “Do not — I’m glad I asked,” Harris recoiled slightly, laughing. “And I

    won’t touch that.”

    “Please do not touch any of the poly — it is very sharp,” the employee

    repeated. “Those are very sharp.”

    “And shiny,” Harris agreed, still laughing.

    Critics mocked the whole scenario, suggesting it looked more like a

    scene from the show “VEEP” than a real interaction between a

    presidential candidate and a constituent.

    “Veep or VEEP?” conservative communications strategist Steve Guest

    asked, encouraging viewers to watch the exchange play out with the

    sound on.

    Still, others just mocked Harris for even asking to touch something in

    a factory where the employees were clearly taking safety precautions —

    such as wearing hardhats — even while walking on the factory floor.

    “Apparently both @SecondGentleman and @KamalaHarris can’t keep their

    hands off of things they shouldn’t touch,” another posted.
