U.S. — Earlier this week, Kamala Harris agreed to participate in a two-hour X Spaces conversation with the beloved Sesame Street character Elmo.

The Harris campaign hoped the event would both quiet the persistent suspicion about the Vice President not answering questions and one-up the X Spaces conversation Donald Trump had with Elon Musk.

“Elmo loves Kamala! Elmo is excited to talk to Kamala!” Kamala Harris told reporters. “Kamala loves Elmo, too! HAHAHAHAHA!”

The Harris team announced the event earlier this week and said they hoped the conversation would clear up some questions about her policy proposals and campaign platforms. They also hoped the presence of Elmo would calm nervous voters and remind them about the simplicity and childlike nature of Kamala’s campaign.

“Who doesn’t love Elmo?!” Harris staffer Kristi Barker told reporters. “We feel like this live, unscripted conversation will show the Vice President’s versatility in answering questions on the spot on wide-ranging topics like what her favorite color is, if she knows the sound the letter ‘L’ makes, and if she likes spaghetti with meatballs or macaroni and cheese more. It’s going to be great!”

At publishing time, Kamala’s team had already canceled the event, citing concerns that the conversation may expose the Vice President to looking less intelligent than her interviewer.

Watch how a D.E.I. consultant magically turns a video game into… well, something else entirely.
