Why was Kamala Harris tapped to handle the border crisis?

When I heard that Kamala Harris was picked by Biden to manage the flood of illegal immigrants, I was literally shocked. While Biden squeaked a win into the White House, more than half the country doesn't want an open border and Harris's views on the matter hardly match theirs.

A former head of ICE said she was the worst possible choice with her stated views supporting sanctuary cities and other policies that would make illegal immigration a defacto non-crime. She literally compared ICE to the KKK during a confirmation hearing and wants free health care and numerous benefits for illegals that even American citizens don't get. So... why?

My theory is that Biden (or far more likely, one of his handlers) fully understand that the border is THE hot-button issue of the year and possibly his presidency. If any less well-known person was tapped, the public would forget whomever it was and simply remember 'Biden failed on the border'. Simply put, Harris is the only person in his administration that people would remember and associate with the disaster and draw heat away from the president.

Even if she makes the situation worse (and she will), Biden will look comparatively better. It's ironic since that was one reason HE was chosen to make Obama seem like a Rhodes scholar in comparison. I ran this theory by a long-time liberal friend of mine. He paused and then said. "It's pretty obvious when you think about it."

So, there you go... Harris is a sacrifice. The only question is does she know it and how will she respond given that?

I believe I read that she won’t be but instead will work with Mexican president to get better control of it.

Harris has been delegated to accomplish ONE thing by the Alinksyites.

She will petition the UN to set up permanent refugee camps along our Southern Borders, after allowing conditions to get completely out of control.

We will never be able to go back to the Trump plan. VICTORY FOR ALINSKY!

The Chinese, Russians, Iranians , North Koreans will contribute vast amounts of money to help out.

Its so great to get all that help!

What could possibly go wrong?

She’ll handle it like she handled Willy Brown.

Harris is a sacrifice.

Normally, a President would be held responsible for his administration's policies and decisions - regardless of whether he delegates responsibility to a VP or someone else. We are not living in normal times. Today, Biden and the democrat party are only responsible for whatever major media and tech oligarchs choose to communicate.

Obama appointed Joe to spearhead the fight against cancer. What did he do? Line his own pockets, and accomplish nothing. Maybe this is Kammy’s entre to the big bucks. No one expects anything of her, and in the end, blame can be laid at Trump’s feet.

For most of youthful life she lived in Canada... So she’s used to ‘crossing’ the border?

She’s handed a job that she can’t possibly do. The globalists will thus be able to dump her for 2024. Nanzi of course hopes sooner so she herself can have a few months as Empress.

(We know Gropey Joe isn’t going to last out the year.)

I don’t think so, I think he must believe she has potential and he’s trying to get her through the learning curve. He’s trying to give her bonafide qualifications since she obviously wants to run for POTUS. Nobody is going to want to vote for some a**hole who points the finger and whines about how unfair everything is every time they have a leadership challenge.

This isn’t a case of the boss shoving a job off on someone without giving them authority, he has given her authority. Everything I’ve seen tells me she is not up to the faith Biden has placed in her. Just look at her reaction, she clearly wants to always be able to run and tattle to daddy. She’s not going to lead.

Because Biden doesn’t want it handled.

She volunteered for this because she thinks it will get her above 1% in the 2024 primaries. that would be an accomplishment for her.

because its the only such issue which has the potential to provide “Electoral Security “ to the UniParty in 2022-2024
that could possibly keep her safe from Pelousy’s eyes on the Oval Office.

Otherwise she might not last as long as Biden in that slot

She’s there to facilitate the border crossers not fix the situation.

Oh yes she will.

I solidify and re-interate by prediction.

Kamala will “solve” the crisis by having UN refugee camps established on the border.

I think you might have missed the “clarification” that came out. She is heading the investigation into “Why” the immigrants are coming—not the activities at the border.

Harris’ people would not allow her to be put in such a position to fail.
