Social media users criticized Vice President Kamala Harris’s particularly tone-deaf tweet on Tuesday given motorists were stranded overnight on Virginia's I-95 in the frigid weather.
“Because of the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, America is moving again," she tweeted. "That's what infrastructure is all about: getting people moving."
The tweet came as people, including Democrat Sen. Tim Kaine, spent more than a day stuck on the highway due to a storm that brought nearly a foot of snow to the area.
Why, why oh why would anyone think this tweet is a good idea at the same time I-95 is trending for a 12 hour+ 30-50 mile standstill?

This was sent out while hundreds were stranded on the I-95 overnight…some for more than 30 hours. https://t.co/UcP2KFEoIX
