NY Times signals Kamala that her White House ambitions are hopeless
American Thinker ^ | 6 Feb, 2023 | Thomas Lifson

In the old days of the USSR, Kremlinologists used to figure out who was in and who was out in the power struggles at the top by looking at the reviewing stand for the May Day military parades. Proximity to the leader was the criterion. With today’s Democrats, an equally shadowy gaggle of power-hungry operatives controlled by hidden hands, we must rely on signals coming from a few semi-official media organs, but preeminently the New York Times.

That’s why a major article in the big circulation Sunday edition of the Times on Kamala Harris is so interesting.

After an introduction with some sympathy for the vice president, feigning balance, came this slap in the face from “dozens” of anonymous party sources “including some who helped put her on the party’s 2020 ticket”:

But the painful reality for Ms. Harris is that in private conversations over the last few months, dozens of Democrats in the White House, on Capitol Hill and around the nation — including some who helped put her on the party’s 2020 ticket — said she had not risen to the challenge of proving herself as a future leader of the party, much less the country. Even some Democrats whom her own advisers referred reporters to for supportive quotes confided privately that they had lost hope in her.

It gets worse.

Through much of the fall, a quiet panic set in among key Democrats about what would happen if President Biden opted not to run for a second term. Most Democrats interviewed, who insisted on anonymity to avoid alienating the White House, said flatly that they did not think Ms. Harris could win the presidency in 2024. Some said the party’s biggest challenge would be finding a way to sideline her without inflaming key Democratic constituencies y.

Well, there are signals useful here in the US. For example, this document that was just posted on Friday on the DOD website:

I don’t understand the problem.

Kamala is another perfect puppet for the Deep State.

She is too stupid to do anything but obey her kleptocrat “advisers”.

Just crank up the propaganda machine “historic first black woman bla bla bla” and you are good to go!

There's nothing we can do.

If Biden croaks, we're stuck with Kamala.

Re: "Most Democrats interviewed...said flatly that they did not think Ms. Harris could win the presidency in 2024..."

They are lying.

It does not matter whom the Democrats nominate.

99% of Democrats would support and vigorously work for Harris if she is the nominee.

Possibly, a small percentage of Left leaning Independents would stay home or vote for the GOP nominee.

Regardless, the Democratic Party currently has a solid majority of the Popular Vote.

No Republican can win a majority of the Popular Vote, even in a fraud-free election.

Trump is the only GOP candidate who might be able to win the Electoral College.

If DeSantis is nominated and runs a perfect campaign, DeSantis might have a small chance to win the Electoral College.

Kamala's presidential ambitions are "hopeless"? That's funny because Biden's were too then along came THE WINNING BALLOTS IN THE WEE HOURS OF THE MORNING ON NOVEMBER 9TH, 2020.

Why did Biden select a VP candidate who had only 2% POPULARITY AMONG DEMONRATS for the 2020 election?

Because he was ASSURED the election would be STOLEN FOR HIM so it really didn't matter who he chose. If the election were TRULY ORGANIC and not STOLEN, he NEVER would've chosen Kamala as his running mate!

Why? They have done everything else possible to degrade women, why not make that dingbat the first woman President? Democrats have no respect for women.
