SARAH VINE: Kamala's biggest mistake was to assume women would vote for her just because of her gender. How utterly entitled and arrogant
Daily Mail UK ^ | November 6, 2024 | Sarah Vine

As Democrats all over the world weep into their kombucha, I’m afraid I have only one thing to say: you brought this on yourselves. I’m sure Kamala Harris is a perfectly nice woman but at no point during this campaign did she demonstrate the strength of character, vision and sheer star power required to win the White House.

Many Americans – certainly most Americans I know – have deep reservations about Donald Trump. They find him distasteful, divisive, deeply dodgy. And indeed, he can be all of those things. But even the staunchest of liberals felt deeply disappointed and let down by this Biden administration and, in particular, its stubborn refusal to acknowledge the current President’s evident shortcomings.

Harris was a poor choice of candidate – but perhaps more significantly she was also an establishment choice on the part of an elite desperate to stay in power, a human box-ticking exercise who, whatever her own personal merits, was always going to stick in the craw of the ordinary American.

She was tense, didactic, finger-wagging and, above all, reductive and politically one-dimensional. She aligned herself with a narrow segment of the electorate, again its own kind of elite, comprised of people obsessed with identity politics and other liberal hobby horses, not realising – or perhaps not wanting to realise – that to win over the whole country you need to sell yourself as a broad church.

She is not a “perfectly nice woman.” Be a journalist and interview her ex staff.

Interview people who claim ruthless prosecution; examine the fact she wants people legally killed up until their day of birth. And how she advocates forcing people of conscience be forced to kill them. And leaving our borders porous as thugs of various descriptions rape murder and rob.

None of this is nice.

The headline describes the entire US “feminist” movement.
It’s a collection of suburban covens.

She thought that because she was a woman, she'd get their votes. Wrong.
She thought that because she said she was black, she'd get their votes. Wrong.
At least she was right about the moron vote.

And Blacks would vote for her because she is Black. Juan Williams says young Black men who want to work in a good economy are racist....can’t make this stuff up.

The fact she came as close as she did to winning, doesn’t give me much comfort.

Also, the Liberals totally and routinely pi#@ed off too many people

All the Liberals’ obvious lies and their utter abuse of power was reaching people who possibly never vote, maybe people who don't even follow politics.

Now there is another strata of voters who got SO pi#@ed off that they went out and voted against her, specifically!

I’m looking forward to the final popular vote count. Where did Joe’s 81 million votes go? Is the popular vote total more or less than 2020. Any difference equals the 2020 election steal.

Another back-handed complimentary article about Trump. I’m sick of all the caveats about him, such as “he’s uncouth & rude & brash but he’s a lovable lug deep down & he’s ours!” The fact is he’s a brilliant strategist who’s an economic genius & a force to be reckoned with. He also understands & caters to regular Americans & we love that we have a voice because of him.

Harris (in my mind) had absolutely nothing going for her in her bid for president, so why would any thinking person, male or female, want to vote for her? If women felt sorry for her, well, that’s no reason to vote for anyone of that category. No matter who you are or who the candidate is, the vote should ALWAYS be for the person who you think can best fill the bill. In this case, I could see only one clear choice for both the president & VP choices.

in all fairness there is a large percentage of women whose list of criteria for public office consists of 1. having a vagina and 2. being a democrat. for some reason not a lot of conservatives vote for just the vagina

It goes deeper than that. She’s not at all black. Sheis “black Irish which is not in any way African and part India native which is also not african. she lied and falsified documents and reports and I’d turn the torch on her

And low class to the end. Even as she was crumbling it looked like perhaps a thousand of her supporters waited to hear from her at Howard University last night. Poor deluded fools, she didn’t show up to thank them and give them support. Instead she sent out some lackey to tell them to get lost
