I’m sure you remember this viral moment between then-vice president Kamala Harris and GOP Sen. Deb Fischer’s husband. After swearing Sen. Fischer in, VP Harris went to shake her husband, Bruce Fischer’s hand, and he seemed to snub her.

When Fischer approached him, Emhoff reportedly refused to shake Fischer’s hand at the ceremonial tea held at the White House. “Why would you try to shake my hand when you wouldn’t shake my wife’s hand?” he apparently asked.
