Kamala Harris 'accent' question at briefing

Vice President Kamala Harris raised eyebrows during her Labor Day rally in Detroit, Michigan, unveiling what critics call a new "accent." Harris spent her Monday holiday in the Motor City hoping to shore up blue-collar union workers in the critical battleground state that she wants to keep blue in the November election. "You better thank a union member for the five-day work week," Harris told the crowd with a noticeable shift in her dialect. "You better thank a union member for sick leave. You better thank a union member for paid leave. You better thank a union member for vacation time." The Trump campaign drew attention to her "cringe" accent in another clip where Harris tells a rallygoer "Let's just get through the next 64 days, how about that!?" before letting out a laugh.
