Doug Emhoff, the husband of former Vice President Kamala Harris, had a tense conversation with Bruce Fischer, the husband of Senator Deb Fischer (R-Neb.), about a situation where they felt Harris was slighted.
The argument started because Bruce Fischer wouldn’t shake Kamala’s hand during Deb’s swearing-in event on January 3. Even though the senator shook hands with Kamala after she was sworn in, her husband just said a quick “thank you” and then put his hand in his pocket.
The former vice president noticed Bruce’s worry and comforted him by saying, “It’s okay, I won’t bite.” “I won’t bite, so don’t worry.”
The incident was filmed and went viral, causing people from all party backgrounds to respond. Deb posted pictures of the swearing-in ceremony on social media later, but she did not talk about her husband’s acts in her post.
“We will keep standing strong for our values and take care of our people,” she wrote. “We will keep this country safe.” We will make Nebraska better. We will make sure our children and grandkids have a better future.
According to CNN, the argument started when Doug asked Bruce why a Republican wouldn’t shake the former Vice President’s hand after his wife had ignored him before.
The former second gentleman asked the senator’s husband, “Why did you try to shake my hand but not my wife’s?”
Neither the former vice president nor the Nebraska senator were directly part of the conversation between their husbands. Bruce later said sorry for what happened.
A CNN story says that by the time they got to the car for the Capitol, everyone was feeling calmer, and they had a friendly chat about golf and other topics.
As OK! mentioned before, sources have said that the former second gentleman is being blamed for his wife’s disappointing election loss. After the 2024 presidential race, Kamala was loving and relied on Doug for support. However, sources now say she has changed her attitude towards her caring husband.
They said, “There’s a lot of blame to give when it comes to Kamala, and Doug is also to blame.”
“Doug didn’t help Kamala during the election. In fact, he appeared hypocritical because it was revealed that he got his child’s nanny pregnant while still married to his first wife and had assaulted his ex-girlfriend, all while promoting his ‘I am woman’ stance.”
