Many conservatives undoubtedly regard House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries as primarily a clownish figure, and for good reasons.
Like other clownish Democrats, however, even Jeffries’ moments of unintentional comedy reveal something unflattering.
In a clip posted to the social media platform X, Jeffries — to his credit, at least — treated a young child’s pointed question during a news conference as a lighthearted moment, an occasion for shared laughter, only to then turn around and give a presumably serious answer worthy of mockery.
“Why do voters view Democrats so poorly?” the child asked on what C-SPAN called “Take Your Kid to Work Day.”
Happily, the question drew laughs from the adults in the room, includingJeffries.
“Did your dad give you that question?” the House minority leader joked, referring to CNN’s Manu Raju.
Moments later, Jeffries began to answer the question seriously, only to be drowned out by continued laughter.
“I’m gonna have words with you after this,” Jeffries joked, wagging his finger at Raju.
To that point, the New York Democrat had handled himself well enough.
From there, however,Jeffriesdelivered a pablum-filled response that should remind conservative readers why they do not take him seriously in the first place.
