You have to hand it to Kamala Harris – because she can’t figure out how to take it for herself.
I didn’t think it was possible for her campaign to get any worse, but at this late stage, she’s still setting new records for awfulness. The closeness of the polls is a frightening testament to how effective the politicized mass media has been at brainwashing the public. How else to explain the support for someone being President who can’t answer a simple question and who makes the dumbest campaign decisions I have ever seen, and I’ve been involved in a LOT of political campaigns.
For instance, Kamala is traveling today to Texas, a state she has no chance to win, but it’s about pushing unfettered abortion, so of course, she’s taking time out of her schedule with Election Day less than two weeks away. Texas is the state that’s been most impacted by the disastrous open border policies of Biden and Harris, so with illegal immigration being one of the top voter concerns, why not go down there and remind voters of her border debacle? Texas Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick called it “one of the dumbest political decisions I’ve ever seen.”
No wonder top Texas Republican office holders are demanding that if she’s finally going to visit Texas, it should be to apologize.
Earlier this week, Harris did a townhall on CNN with Anderson Cooper hosting. It was nearly as friendly a venue as “The View” and that was an embarrassing tongue bath. But it went so badly that Matt Margolis at PJ Media called it “a masterclass in self-destruction” and the biggest political disaster since Biden debated Trump. Even Anderson Cooper diplomatically admitted that he didn’t think she “sealed the deal,” although I’m sure that won’t keep him from voting for her, if he hasn’t already.
Like watching “Plan Nine from Outer Space,” it’s hard to pick a favorite bad moment, but one that’s getting a lot of attention was when she was asked what her weaknesses were and she replied with a word salad that never answered the question but somehow worked around to praising herself.
Her campaign is now resorting to relying on celebrities from Lizzo to Beyonce to Michael Keaton to try to drag Kamala over the finish line – because nobody can relate to the problems of struggling working Americans in the Biden-Harris economy like fabulously rich celebrities. This seems to be backfiring bigly. Michael Keaton’s post looked like a hostage video as he told regular people that Trump and Elon Musk didn’t really care about them or want to hang out with them. It was greeted with hundreds of derisive responses from people asking when they could come over to Michael’s house for a beer.
Last night, Barack Obama and Bruce Springsteen tried to gin up some enthusiasm for Kamala at a rally in Georgia, but reports are that the crowd started leaving as soon as Springsteen finished and she started talking. Don Surber has an amusing piece that covers that, along with topics like why Kamala is so bad at retail politics and how she managed to hold a “one-person debate” on CNN and lose.
Not that the crowd were that impressed with Springsteen, either. Bob Hoge at Redstate.com reports that Bruce’s galloping TDS seems to have left him clinically depressed. After a dark and divisive rant about Trump being a “tyrant,” he mumbled through a dreary solo rendition of “Dancing in the Dark,” which includes these lyrics that sound like a description of Kamala’s campaign:
Cheer up, Bruce. If Trump gets elected, maybe you won’t have to declare your multi-million-dollar estate in New Jersey as a farm anymore just to get a tax break. (For those who don’t know that story, here’s a 2015 Billboard article about it.)
