Vice President Kamala Harris has drawn some comparisons to ‘The Office’ character Michael Scott, played by Steve Carell, so to see if we can confirm who said what, they We have decided to compile some of the more notable quotes.

If you’re a big fan of “The Office,” you can probably pass this test. Even if you’re just a fan, you’ll probably do just fine because he’s an iconic character on an iconic show that’s one of the most-watched shows of all time. However, if you’re vaguely familiar with the show and only know Michael Scott’s character from snippets and memes online, you might have a little trouble deciphering his quote from Kamala’s. The answer is below a series of gifs later in the article. (Stream the Daily Caller documentary “Cleaning Up Kamila” here)

Kamala Harris or Michael Scott?

1. “Do I need to be liked?” Absolutely not. I like to be liked. It’s fun to be liked. Must be liked. But this is different from a compulsive desire to be praised. ”

Michael (must be friends with)largely) Everyone, even co-workers. For him, there are no professional boundaries between colleagues. Kamala is desperate to be liked by the media and everyone in the party. It’s easy to imagine her drinking rosé wine and watching prime-time cable news, craving buzz and recognition from the MSNBC hosts.

2. “You have no idea how high I can fly.”

Kamala has such an inferiority complex that I could see her spouting this lame line in her tweets in response to “The View” and Donald Trump. Michael would also say this to higher-ups at Dunder Mifflin if he was assigned to a position or forced to improve productivity.

3. “It’s time to do what we’ve always done. Every day.”

When Michael needed to inspire his employees, he would stand up in a meeting and say this without any real awareness, thinking this was profound and novel. Kamala did the same at the rally, expecting a big round of applause.

4. “Would you rather be feared or loved?” Easy. both. I want people to be afraid of how much I love them. ”

Kamala is trying to be the candidate of unity, peace, normalcy, decency, good juju and coconuts, but at the same time seems strong enough to stand up to world leaders like Trump, Putin and Xi. It’s lit. She will definitely answer “both” and will answer many times, and so will Michael, who is an incompetent goofball but always wants everyone to respect him.

5. “We can look at the moment in which we are present and contextualize it to understand where we exist within history and this moment in relation to the past as well as the future.” .”

I could see the romantic Michael looking back fondly on his past relationships and saying at the office New Year’s party, Kamala is also screaming at this. That’s because she doesn’t really talk about policy details, instead centering her campaign on vague notions of what the future will look like under her administration.

6. “We have to take this seriously. You are being forced to take it seriously, so we have to take it just as seriously as you.”

Hmm, I’m confused about this. Meanwhile, Kamala sounds like she’s tackling hot-button political issues that affect Gen Z kids, like abortion and gun violence. It also sounds like Michael is trying to force his co-workers to take seriously something that isn’t serious at all, like Dwight’s doomsday plan.

7. “I’ll always be Beyoncé.”

Michael is the kind of guy who listens to Beyoncé in his office, but then again, Kamala just invited the one-of-a-kind pop singer to a gathering in Houston. Also, both of them vastly overestimate their own importance, so it seems appropriate to compare themselves to Beyoncé.

8.”Some would probably say it’s a weakness, but I actually consider it a strength. ”

Both Kamala and Michael have fragile egos. They never admit that they are wrong because they are always right no matter what. Ordinary people have their flaws and weaknesses, but Kamala and Michael have only their strengths and strengths.

9. “Sometimes I start a sentence and don’t even know where it’s going. I just hope I can find it along the way.”

Can’t you just imagine Kamala admitting this in a friendly podcast episode and then following up with her signature laugh? In July and August, her campaign focused on her silly, flirtatious moments. I tried to guess and create a viral coconut meme. They turn this statement into a Gen Z meme. Kamala is only authentic, Kamala is only honest, Kamala is only relatable. But Michael also said this without a trace of irony:

10. “Sometimes people will open the door for you and hold it open for you, and sometimes they won’t. Then you have to kick that damn door down.”

This is Michael trying to justify why he sabotaged one of his employees and threw him under the bus when a corporate mogul visited his Scranton local office. This also means that Kamala exaggerates her middle-class background and leans more towards the feminist corporate “girlboss” side.

11. “So Ukraine is a European country. It exists next to another country called Russia. Russia is a much bigger country. Russia is a powerful country. Russia decided to invade a small country called Ukraine.”

Michael will treat this statement like a highly original analysis, but Dwight will interject with an esoteric fact about Russian history from the 13th century. Kamala probably lacks a deep understanding of relations between Russia and Ukraine, and sometimes enjoys talking to people like an elementary school student. So this also makes sense for her.
