On Monday, users on X reacted to a clip of Barrymore’s interview with Harris where she deployed a play on the vice president’s name, saying, “‘I’ve been thinking that we really all need a tremendous hug in the world right now.”
“But in our country, we need you to be Momala of the country,” she added.
As the audience started to cheer, Harris responded, “Yeah, I mean… yeah, no, I know.”
