They say you can’t go home anymore, but the second gentleman Doug Emhoff did it with Good Morning America‘S Michael Strahantraveled to his old home in Matawan, New Jersey, for an interview.
The two had a conversation, released on Fridayat a local diner, and even found his brother. AndyThe initials are still on the flagpole in front of his old house, decades later, when Doug is faced with existential dread about his upcoming 60th birthday. If you’re wondering what to get him, he says, he and his wife Kamala Harris will accept the general gift of the presidency.
Emhoff relied on his credibility in the Garden State and told Strahan, “New Jersey, you know, it’s a matter of loyalty.”
Tony Soprano, are you listening? “It’s about family. It’s about protecting each other. It’s about being strong, not taking any crap.”
Among the trash Emhoff won’t accept is Arkansas. Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders‘ Comments this week that Harris “has nothing to be humble about,” while Sanders’ children do it for her.
“It’s appalling that someone in a position of leadership, like the governor, would say something so disgusting and out of touch,” Emhoff said when asked about the statement, in which Sanders also ignored the fact that Harris is the stepmother of Doug’s children from his previous marriage. Cole And Ella Emhoff. “Not only one, mispronouncing her name, that’s disrespectful. She knows what her name is. And then, two, like you need your own child to be humble.”
“But then, then say as if women should “Be humble,” Emhoff continued, calling the comments “a disgusting thing to say.”
Emhoff continues to build on his achievements both His Wife and His Ex-Wifepraised Harris’ leadership since being named to the top spot on the list as “the coolest, most awesome version of the Kamala Harris we know and that I love,” and dedicated to his ex-wife Kristen Emhoff her flowers for her campaign presence and continuously defended Harris.
“Yeah, we’re very united, you know?” he said of the entire Harris-Emhoff clan. “That’s who we are. And, you know, Kersten is incredible. When you attack Kamala, especially on issues related to motherhood, Kersten just goes out there every time just to speak the truth about who Kamala is as a mother, as a person, as a member of our family, again, who’s always been there for us. And she’ll be there for your family.”
While admitting he misses his job as an entertainment lawyer, Emhoff said he finds satisfaction in his role as second gentleman and has the potential to become first gentleman.
“A man supporting a woman and lifting a woman up, that’s the right thing to do,” he said. “When some women are successful, it’s not like some men somewhere are Are not success. There is this binary thinking where it is either/or. No, it is both. When we elevate women, we elevate the whole society.”
