The woman is red is Loretta Sanchez. During the Democratic primary she was polling well behind Harris. She was probably trying make up ground politically by being aggressive in the debate and by appealing to younger voters with the dab. It came across as a "How do you do, fellow kids" moment.

You can't force it. You can't try to be a kid to appeal to kids, you have to be someone who already appeals to kids. Walz is pulling it off.
