Kamala Harris tried her hand at dating advice, but the internet immediately declined.

The former vice president was dragged for the "terrible" tips she gave during a Tuesday, December 23, appearance on the "Rich Little Brokegirls" podcast, as critics resurrected her husband Doug Emhoff’s infamous cheating scandal.

Harris advised young singles to "choose to be with someone who allows you to laugh at yourself and them" and "someone who you know you like going to the grocery store together [with or] taking a walk together."

Kamala Harris tied the knot Doug Emhoff two months before her 50th birthday.

"There are different phases in your life and you may not know what phase you’re in," Harris — who married Emhoff two months before her 50th birthday in 2014 — explained. "Maybe you’re going to choose that you want to have that kind of Friday night relationship — or you want that Sunday morning relationship."

She continued, "Sometimes you can get both — and sometimes it's oil and water. And that’s OK! Be in those phases where you are having fun!"

Trolling Harris via X, one person mocked: "Her husband was super kind to his nanny."

Kamala Harris was mocked for giving dating advice.

Emhoff denied the allegations — which were notably made at the peak of Harris' 2024 presidential campaign. He also has never confirmed reports that his mistress had gotten pregnant and lost the baby.

"Why would anyone take dating advice from Kamala Harris?" an additional hater questioned, while someone else declared: "This is terrible advice."

Others thought Harris' advice didn't make any sense, with one individual writing, "Serving more word salad," and another adding: "Sounds like a whole lotta hoopla to me."
