* Yet her tour comes at an intensely difficult time for the Biden administration, amid widespread condemnation of their handling of the fall of Kabul
* When likely voters were asked in a Rasmussen Reports poll if Harris is ready to be U.S. president, 47 per cent said she is 'not at all qualified'
* Harris arrived in Singapore on Sunday for the week-long trip to Asia, which also includes a stop in Vietnam, where she will meet with officials in the region
* She offered reassurances of Washington's commitment to the region and said America takes its role as a global leader 'seriously' amid Afghanistan chaos
Vice President Kamala Harris nervously laughed and dismissed a reporter's inquiry as she headed to Singapore amid Afghanistan chaos.
Harris initially claimed to have had a key role and that she was 'the last person in the room' when Biden chose to follow through with the May 1 deadline to retreat US troops from Afghanistan.

Singapore is about 9% Indian by ethnicity.
Kamala could work out a deal whereby Singapore accepts a few hundred Afghan Hindus. It might not be a good fit due to educational attainment and sub ethnicity (Tamil versus Afghan), but it is not going to be a perfect anywhere. People have to adopt more so the émigré than the host nation. Education can be provided for, however.
Will Kamala bring it up or merely let rip one of her signature cackles?
Who she is?
