Kamala’s coronation is a blow for US democracy
The Telegraph ^ | Aug 19 | Tim Stanley

Posted on 08/19/2024 10:34:21 AM PDT by RandFan

This week, the Democratic Party will nominate for president a woman who hasn’t won a single primary. I’ve elected not to attend the convention in Chicago. Since Joe Biden pulled out, it’s become a toothless coronation – and if there are protests, I can’t report on them. To do that, one needs pre-approved press credentials from the terrifying Chicago Police Department, which seems to regard half a dozen kids with placards and a camera as a nascent riot.

The diminution of American democracy continues. Three months ago, we were told Joe was fit and well: anyone who said otherwise was a liar. Then he bombed at the debate. The elite realised Trump might win, so now we were told Biden was gravely ill – and horribly selfish for refusing to stand aside. A coalition of hacks and politicians humiliated the poor man off the ticket, a surrender they quickly labelled “historic” and “brave.”

It was Kamala Harris’ turn for a makeover. Yesterday, she was an idiot; today she is the second coming of Lincoln, with quirks that once made her absurd – that crazy laugh, her random use of unrelated words – rebranded as a breath of fresh air. And it seems to be working. She’s climbing fast through the polls

He's right a coronation and a stitch up.

She's "accepting" the nomination from the smoke filled backroom. No primary or contest.

It's surely enough to disqualify her? Shame on the media for going along with this process and outcome...

It's disgusting! And what does it say about the cackler? And her party?

I’d like for anyone to name a democrat that was voted in in primaries and not appointed

The United States is a Republic, not a democracy, but regardless, Kamala Harris was not elected by her party as a candidate.

They all seem happy to go along with it (from the Obama’s and Clintons)

The media is sanitizing it and not mentioning the fact that she’s being selected not elected.

Anyone else find it unedifying?

Hopefully it comes back to haunt them ...

I think it will. Usually the candidate who goes through a contest is more tested and battle hardened.

That would give Trump the edge in November.

And she’s a low-IQ spouter of word-salad!

If kamala wins, obama remains the real “president”! The USA cannot afford 4 more years of obama.

Vote Trump/Vance!

And so is the Democrat cheat machine, the cheat machine that neither the GOP elite or the media care to question.

This election is going to go down to the wire. So we can’t take anything for granted. If your car breaks down on Election Day, call a friend or thumb a ride.

She’s climbing fast through the polls

Depends on which polling data one is looking at.

Since we are not a democracy, no worries.
