Finance expert and famed investor Kevin O’Leary of “Shark Tank” sounded the alarm on Vice President Kamala Harris’ dark rhetoric in the final days of her campaign before the Nov. 5 election and questioned why there is so little information available about some of her economic policies, a situation he described as “nuts.”
“I don’t care what she eats for breakfast. I’m still trying to figure out why she wants to raise taxes at 28%, why she wants to go after unrealized capital gains. What about the $25,000 inflation idea for houses? That’s nuts,” O’Leary told Fox News host Jesse Watters. “All of this policy stuff got lost in this crazy narrative, this circus going on right now. I’m telling you, as an investor, I’m getting freaked out here because there’s no information anymore. It’s just this crazy rhetoric going in the last days.
“I would think she should do the Rogan deal and start talking about what she really means. Price gouging on grocery stores at 3.5% margin? I mean, 88 percent of jobs in America come from companies, not the government. Am I the only guy that cares about this? This is nuts. It’s completely nuts. I’m just throwing my hand up saying she’s got six or seven days left. Please tell me what you want to do because I have no idea. I have no idea what you’re doing. No idea,” he continued.
The two then discussed a Tuesday remark by President Joe Biden who, in an interview, appeared to call former President Donald Trump and all of his supporters “garbage” in response to an insult comedian’s joke about the island of Puerto Rico at Trump’s Madison Square Garden event over the weekend. “This is a Hillary moment. O’Leary, this is what she got roasted for, the deplorable comment. And this is just like a week after Biden said about Trump, we got to lock him up,” Watters said.

“No, it is the deplorables moment again,” O’Leary agreed. “I’m really surprised he said that because when you be, when you’re called human garbage, it motivates you to get off your rear end off the sofa and go and vote. I wouldn’t do that in the 43 counties where people are saying, ‘yeah, it may be raining. I don’t think I’m going to do it.’
“But I just, ‘the president of the United States just called me garbage. I’m a little pissed off about that. I think I’m going to go stand in line and I’m going to vote.’ I think that was a mistake. And I’m sure it’s going to get a ton of social media tomorrow. I mean, I know he wishes he could take that back. He is the president of all that garbage. Remember, he represents everybody, everybody, including the garbage. I mean, that’s crazy. Yeah, that is crazy. He’s crazy,” O’Leary added.
