I think it is just her dialect, and that criticism of
her in that way is kind of...well...that R word.
I had no problem understanding her!
It is not a common name so people get it wrong sometimes,

Why does that woman insist on mispronouncing Kamala's name?
It's so disrespectful that I just couldn't listen to them. Sorry. Maybe there's some deep dark secret in her family lineage, but I just can't take these women seriously, if they can't even say the name of sitting Vice President of the United States name correctly.

It's her job to get it right.
she's deliberately mispronouncing it as a racist dog whistle, sending us the cue that she's not one of us.

And since Kamala herself pronounces it three different way, there is no one way to 'get it right'.

Her name is "Candace Owens" not "Candice Owens". You might want to get it right if you don't want to be accused of putting out a racist dog whistle.
The feminine given name Candice is a transliteration of the Latin name Candace, which bears numerous connotations, including ‘clarity,’ ‘pure,’ ‘incandescent,’ or ‘glowing white.’ It is derived from the Greek or Meroitic term Kandake or kdke, first used to refer to the queen or queen mother of the ancient African Kingdom of Kush.

her influential boyfriend

Then she went on to occupy office of Vice President of the USA!
She herself pronounces it three different ways.
She is on tape saying it differently each time.
SHe claims to be middle class jamaican black person.
And her family in Jamaica was irish and owned 1000 slaves.
