Democrat Spins Her Profane Rant Against Staffer Into Campaign Ad
A new campaign video from former Democratic Rep. Katie Porter jokes about her record of profanely berating staff members, with the California gubernatorial hopeful saying it made her more relatable to the public.
Porter said she referenced the moment in her campaign video because it showed Californians that she was someone who took “responsibility” for her former actions and could laugh at herself. Last year, a video resurfaced showing Porter in 2021 yelling at a staff member to “get out of my f***ing shot” when making a video message for the Biden administration.
Porter’s new ad, which features her support for abolishing ICE and calls to “Dump Trump,” concludes with her asking supporters lined up behind her to “please get out of my shot.”
“I think it’s important to show Californians who I really am. I’m someone who’s not like most politicians,” Porter said in an interview with Nexstar Media Group. “I push a shopping cart, fill a minivan. You see that in the ad, but you’ll also see somebody who’s taken responsibility again and again in this race, and is also able to laugh at herself and show that she’s grown. And I think that is a mark of leadership, and I want to show people that.”
