In what may have been the most predictable reaction to a late show appearance by a presidential candidate in morning show history, Fox & Friends could barely hide their disgust with Vice President Kamala Harris’s guest appearance on the Late Night Show with Stephen Colbert.

Her sipping of a Miller High Life beer (as part of a bit Colbert came up with) appeared to anger most of the Fox & Friends co-hosts, who objected to the visuals of the vice president having a laugh while a massive new hurricane approaches Florida, a state still reeling from Hurricane Helene.

Brian Kilmeade pivoted from Hurricane Milton coverage to the presidential race, saying, “I wonder if the vice president will cancel her appearance on these lighthearted shows like The View and Stephen Colbert’s Late Night Show? And the answer is she didn’t.”

He then introduced a clip of Harris sipping from a beer with Colbert, commentating: “And here’s a little… I mean, to me, this is… even though you tape in the afternoon, and it’s in New York, and it’s not in Florida; the whole country is watching. And this is what they saw.”

“You know, she wants to be a leader until it’s time for us to have leadership,” opined Lawrence Jones. “For her to go on the Late Night Show, do Howard Stern in the middle of a crisis and not be with the commander-in-chief, it just doesn’t look good.”

Ainsley Earhardt lamented how this would look to victims, perhaps even those trapped in a drain pipe: “If you’re worried about your house… if you just experienced a mudslide that took your husband. Remember, we interviewed the lady, her husband was trapped in the drainpipe? And you see the vice president, person running for president, on a late-night show drinking a beer. It makes it look like you don’t care about what’s happening in North Carolina.”

Steve Doocy made the salient point that “no one orders Miller High Life,” suggesting that Harris only picked the beer because it’s brewed in the swing state of Wisconsin. So, fair point to Big Dooce for that one.

It seems, in the eyes of Fox & Friends, that Harris would have better spent her time shoveling sandbags in Sarasota than an afternoon taping of a late-night show in Manhattan.
