On YouTube, there is a four-minute video that is nothing but Vice President Kamala Harris repeating this empty phrase: “What can be, unburdened by what has been.”
But no matter how many times she utters this idiotic mantra, Harris will, in fact, be heavily burdened by the disaster that has been the Biden administration. Burdened by her own dismal record as vice president. And burdened by the fact that she is so uniquely unqualified to be leader of the free world.

To say Harris is an empty pantsuit is an insult to empty pantsuits.
As we put it in an editorial a year ago:
Biden’s reelection campaign recently described Harris as a ‘powerful and effective messenger.’ Sure. Like when she says ‘As the name suggests, community banks are in the community.’ Or, when she says that ‘present culture is the way we express how we’re feeling about the moment, and we should always find times to express how we feel about the moment.’ Or … well, as Harris might put it, there are endless examples of her vapidity that stretch on without limit because there’s no end to them.
As we put it in an editorial we posted last week and updated over the weekend:
It might seem impossible, but she would be an even worse president than he was.
No matter how much Harris tries to distance herself from Joe Biden, she will carry the burden of answering for his failures. Among them:
The border crisis. One of the few jobs Biden gave her to do was to stem the flow of illegal immigrants. She blathered on about “root causes,” after which 10 million or so illegals crossed the border and her “leadership role” was quietly memory-holed.
The economy. Harris will have to defend Biden’s economic record – inflation, falling real wages, widespread dissatisfaction.
Biden’s mental decline. She will have to explain what she knew and when about Biden’s obvious mental decline, what she did to cover it up, and whether she thinks he’s fit to finish out his term.
Foreign policy. There are wars raging in the Middle East and in Ukraine. Does Harris have any idea what is going on in the world? In our editorial, we said “Imagine her going up against Vladimir Putin or Xi Jinping. As long as they could hold their laughter, they would be able to easily push her into making grave errors. “
Her own record as a “leader.” In her three-and-a-half years as vice president, she’s made it clear to anyone paying attention that she is a terrible, awful, no-good, very bad leader.
Here’s how The Hill put it two years ago:
More than 13 high-profile aides have left the vice president’s office, including her director of speechwriting, Meghan Groob, just last week.
The revolving door has made headlines during Harris’s tenure, creating a narrative of instability in the vice president’s office. But some Democrats worry about larger implications, particularly if President Biden chooses not to run for reelection.
Politico reported that “People are thrown under the bus from the very top, there are short fuses and it’s an abusive environment. … It’s not a healthy environment and people often feel mistreated. It’s not a place where people feel supported but a place where people feel treated like s—.”
A book published at the start of the year by a couple of liberal reporters provides what one reviewer called “a withering assessment” of Harris, quoting one of her own aides saying: “This person should not be president of the United States.”
The Trump campaign has already put together an ad that burdens Harris with what has been, titled “Kamala was in on it.”
Now that Harris is the presumptive nominee – Biden endorsed her, Democrats are already falling in line to back her, and she can access the $90 million in campaign cash Biden has raised – the press will most assuredly be unburdened by what has been.
Fresh off denying Biden’s mental decline for four years, the media will immediately shift gears to portray Harris as a smart, savvy, warm, affectionate, strong, determined leader who would be a history-making president.
God help the country if voters can’t see through this latest con job.

Thank you very much and God bless you.
Maybe we will again see what Trump can be, unburdened by Harris and her kneepads from the past.
Is the media going to demand Harris does press conferences with Q&A or are they going to let her hide like they did with Biden?
Brilliant headline.
Harris is Biden with hair and breasts another unconscionable idiot.
CBS Morning had Gayle King doing a 1 hour campaign commercial for Kamala - they will protect her, no need for her to answer questions.
Harris will be professionally coiffered and choreographed. However if she resumes the alcohol, marijuana, downers and coke, every time she opns her mouth it will be a disaster.
The broad couldn’t stop the illegal alien invasion of America and now the Meth and Fentanyl Eaters are wanting her to run the country. What a bunch of idiots. Real Banana Boater Voters.
Kamala has a thin, rather drab resume.......no claims to fame there.
When Tulsi Gabbard cited Kamala’s incarcerating scores of young black men
for smoking weed, Kamala was forced out of the Democrat presidential primary.
She is stupid and lacking in any semblance of competence.
After a couple of embarrassing moments the Dems will quickly drop her and move on to the next clown.
Burdened by how she got to where she is via her “association” and “vertical ascent” with Willie Brown.
To which I say they're not saying this BS because they have a better argument that they're holding back on ... this is all they have.
A president usually only has to make yes or no decisions.
Zelensky - we need more American money & weapons
Ukrainian experts - $X billion + weapons list
US DoD - pared weapons list
WH staffers - $X billion OK
President - yes, now give me ice cream
Well, that depends (sorry joe) on if it’s today, which isn’t yesterday, because yesterday is in the past. Nor is it tomorrow which is in the future so it isn’t here yet like today is which was the future yesterday but is now today.....😵
I hate reading these articles with her photo on them.
Biden wil be deposed by the 25th ammendment. Kamela qill become President........ the first Female Black President
She will be President but not the nominee
She is out of practice because she has a normally undemanding job.
Willie Brown respected her mind and character.
That speechwriter should be fired. Harris is like a hamster on a wheel running the same line over and over. I had to stop listening to this idiot. I’m now unburdened by what I heard. I guess I’ll go listen to Eric Burdon and the Animals We Gotta Get Out Of This Place and Oh lord please Don’t Let Me Be Misunderstood.
But now, Harris has protection she didn’t have before.
A fawning MSM, both electronic and print, that’ll ignore every foible and faux pas.
A free pass to avoid criticism of her record all under the guise that type of criticism is misogynistic and/or racist. Her campaign will make strong use of that as will her supporters and the MSM.
Open access to Biden’s campaign coffers.
