Why Kamala Harris' LAUGH has sparked concerns from Democrats as they rush to turn around dire approval ratings... as AOC praises her and 'the authority that comes with having a uterus'

The Democratic National Committee has conducted focus groups on Vice President Kamala Harris, according to a new CNN report, to understand why voters do not like her.

Some voters in the focus groups said they did not like Harris, specifically citing her laugh for criticism. Others questioned whether Biden even likes her.

Harris' approval rating continues to rest somewhere in the mid-30s, according to polls, a historic low for the modern vice presidency as she spent the first three years in office struggling with bad headlines.

But some Democratic voters said Harris was better than Biden at talking about abortion, guns, student loans, and the Israeli war in Gaza.

Biden aides continue to signal frustration with Harris as she tries to break out on key issues during the presidential campaign.

The White House 'fumed' at Harris and her team, the report notes, after she tried to emphasize her position on 'an immediate ceasefire' in Gaza to the media, even though her position was no different than Biden's.

The report also notes Biden aides were 'annoyed' by the idea that they should lean on Harris more on some issues and were not pleased by reports of Harris holding private meetings with top Democrats to discuss the presidential campaign.

Harris, however, has found new energy by focusing on abortion rights, which Democrats believe is a key advantage as she struggles to work on her political comeback.

The vice president is trying to resell her image as a prosecutor, that she used for her own unsuccessful presidential campaign, telling CNN she finds the prospect of prosecuting Trump on the issue of abortion rights 'liberating.'

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez praised Harris' advocacy on abortion rights, identifying it as a strength for the campaign. 

'There's a certain level of authority that comes with having a uterus and being a woman,' the New York Democrat said in the article.

Unwilling or unable to remove Harris from the presidential ticket, Democrats are trying to rehab her image ahead of the 2024 election. 

Harris' aides believe the solution to fixing Harris is 'exposure' and 'getting her out more,' the report notes.

Harris herself told CNN she was ready to take on any of former President Donald Trump's choice for his running mate.

'I am ready,' she said. 'For whoever has the, fill in the blank, to do it.'
