Terry McAteer: Another side to Kamala Harris
The Union ^ | Nov 5, 2019 | Terry McAteer

Posted on 07/30/2024 6:26:55 AM PDT by Red Badger

[SNIP]

Four short episodes I would like to share of his month-long internship for Kamala Harris:

Senator Harris vocally throws around “F-bombs” and other profanity constantly in her berating of staff and others. The staff is in complete fear of her and she uses her profanity throughout the day.

As Attorney General, Senator Harris instructed her entire staff to stand every morning as she entered the office and say, “Good Morning General.”

Never once during the month-long internship did Harris introduce herself to our son (as he was only in an office with 20 paid employees) and staff was too intimidated by her to introduce him. The only acknowledgment was a form letter of “thanks” signed by Harris given to him on his last day of service.

Gregory was also given instructions to never address Harris nor look her in the eye as that privilege was only allowed to senior staff members.

I don’t know about you but this is not the workplace of someone who respects her staff. For a woman of color to have employees stand when she enters the room smacks of a bygone era that we, as Americans, deplore and find demeaning. Furthermore, that she didn’t show the quality of leadership skills or even being a decent boss — much less the “class” to approach Gregory at least once during the month to say “Hi, I’m Kamala Harris and I want to thank you for volunteering in my office” — is really troubling. Finally, what is up with the “don’t look her in the eye” instruction? I know I wouldn’t want to work in that hostile environment!

Hilary had the same conduct mandated in her presence.

This kind of information is what I call ommision material.

You will never catch Lestor Holt talking about it.

On the other hand, if Trump dropped a single F-bomb to a subordinate, game over man. Game over.

America needs this leader in charge; just as much as it needs a paper asshole.

That is the true mark of a tyrant and a dictator.

It is also the mark of a demon possessed person.

Demons dislike being ‘looked at’ and being seen through the human eyes is one way to tell.

These people, Hillary and Kamala, are not the only ones................

The proof is in the fact that she's had a 92% turnover rate as VP.

Being on the staff of the VP is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. People don't just walk away from that without a very good reason.

She must be a loving and compassionate human being.

THIS is what soccer moms need to know.

“Woman of Color” is an interesting description. I am a person of color even though zi am considered male, Caucasian. I am especially colored if zi have stayed in the sun for too long. I have never been close to being white as I always have bruises, sunburns, or tans.

We learned what we needed to know about Kamala in the Kavanaugh nomination hearings.

“While I have nothing against now-Senator Harris as she is a good orator and has done some fine things while holding elective office, I believe, however, how she treats her staff is as important as an individual’s legislative accomplishments.”

He calls her a “good orator?”!!!

As I mentioned in another thread on this topic yesterday, don’t read too much into McAteer’s mild concession of a few of Harris’ “good qualities.” Understand that the man comes from Democrat party machine-politician family (cf. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/J._Eugene_McAteer ) , so he’s simply making the point here that he’s not saying what he’s saying about Kamala for partisan reasons. He’s saying that she’s a crappy person because she’s a crappy person.

I read yesterday Pence’s staff had over 80% turnover. High pressure, long hours.

That's interesting. Pence was reported to be a good person to work for. Yet Kamala had a bad reputation as a boss going back to her campaign for president and her days in CA.

As you say, the high pressure and long hours may make it difficult to draw conclusions from high VP staff turnover rates.

This will be fun watching Trump dig at her. He is an expert in that area. You have to be at the level of business and success he has achieved.

BUT. I predict Kamala will NEVER debate or even be in the same state as Trump. He will shred her face to face.

The Dems will put it off for as long as possible in order to school Kamalala on every facet of the government besides carpet inspections.................
