Danica Patrick Publicly Scorns Kamala Harris After Unite For America Rally Speech

Former NASCAR driver Danica Patrick has once again taken aim at Vice President Kamala Harris. Drawing from her influential platform built through a historic IndyCar and NASCAR career, alongside her subsequent business and media ventures, Patrick has mocked Vice President Harris in an Instagram Story post.

Patrick’s latest criticism centers around a speech Harris delivered at the Unite for America rally. On her Instagram story, Patrick mocked Harris, stating:

“She repeats herself. Takes long pauses. Never really says anything. But forgot her famous line “unburdened by what has been.”

The former racer is not shy to show her political leanings. Patrick has recently commented, as Newsweek Sports previously reported:

“Here is where I stand with SOME current issues and politics. I am not a liberal. I am somewhere between republican and independent,” she said.

“I think our country should be run by someone that knows business and has integrity. I believe we should be able to speak freely.

“I love this country, and I have lived in other places. I believe when people of different opinions speak face to face, we realize we are more similar than different.

“I don’t believe everything anyone says. I have been very torn over the years if I should give a [crap] about politics or just live the life I want as an example. I have been doing the latter. The reaction today is definitely interesting… since all I said was, I love this country.”

This is also not the first time that Patrick has voiced her opinion on Harris. After Harris’s recent comments on the gun buyback program, the former driver posted to social media:

“Just one of many lies.”

Patrick’s career stands as one of the most groundbreaking in motorsport history. After gaining experience in the UK’s junior single-seater categories, she made her mark in the U.S. racing scene, debuting in the IndyCar Series in 2005. Her defining moment came in 2008 when she secured a historic victory at the Indy Japan 300, becoming the first woman to win an IndyCar race.

Patrick also had great success at the Indianapolis 500, securing a third-place finish in 2009, the best result ever by a female driver at the iconic event. Transitioning to NASCAR, she continued to set records, most notably in 2013 when she became the first woman to secure pole position for the Daytona 500, finishing the race in eighth place.

Throughout her NASCAR career, Patrick consistently pushed the boundaries, claiming more top-ten finishes than any other woman in the series. After stepping away from full-time racing at the end of 2017, she made her final competitive appearances at the 2018 editions of the Daytona 500 and Indianapolis 500.
