About
Listen, I Want You To Do This With Me. Let’s, Let’s Do This Together is a quote from 2024 U.S. Presidential candidate and Vice President Kamala Harris in a viral video of her calling Minnesota Governor Tim Walz to ask him to be her running mate. The video was originally posted to TikTok in August 2024, spawning a two-panel meme template on Twitter / X in the following days. Meme creators used screenshots of the two successive quotes as reaction images and added captions that outlined scenarios in which someone needed to be convinced.
Origin
On August 6th, 2024, U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris posted a TikTok[1] in which she called Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, asking him to be her running mate in the 2024 U.S. Presidential Election. Harris says to Walz, "Listen, I want you to do this with me. Let's, let's do this together." The video received over 3.4 million plays and 583,400 likes in a day (shown below).
@kamalaharris When I called Governor Walz this morning to ask him to join our campaign, I shared my deep level of respect for him and the work we’ve done together. We’re going to unify this country and we’re going to win. Let’s go get this done.
Later on August 6th, X[2] user @seandoherty tweeted the clip of Harris saying, "Listen, I want you to do this with me. Let's, let's do this together," captioning it, "me texting the gays to get margaritas with me at 3:19pm on a Tuesday," receiving over 38,000 likes in two days (shown below).
