The KHive fan club showed up in force to cheer on a defeated presidential candidate who, in their eyes, could do no wrong.
NEW YORK — Many Democrats are still mired in a state of low-level depression after Kamala Harris’ devastating defeat in the 2024 election. President Donald Trump has steamrolled Washington, and the party’s favorability has plunged to historic lows, including among Democrats, as the circular firing-squad continues over exactly why the party lost. Harris herself has come in for her share of blame, and in recent weeks, she has tumbled in the 2028 presidential polls; she now stands well behind her longtime frenemy California Gov. Gavin Newsom.
But you wouldn’t know it from the crowd assembled Wednesday at the cavernous Town Hall auditorium in New York City for an 8 p.m. “Conversation with Kamala Harris,” a book talk for the former vice president’s recently-released — and surprisingly sharp-edged — memoir of the campaign trail, 107 Days.
Here, the audience buzzed with excitement at the prospect of seeing Harris up-close, and the mood was festive. The event’s “featured cocktail” was the Madam VP, a tall drink made with gin, cassis, cardamom, honey and lemon. It was priced at $24, a likely reference to the campaign year. The audience members seated around me traded campaign stories, reminiscing. One had spent much of his summer door-knocking; another had been a delegate at the Democratic National Convention. The only indication that all was not well was the intermittent thump of pro-Palestinian demonstrators’ drums just beyond the venue’s doors, which persisted throughout the event. Soon, the mere sight of the failed presidential candidate and her husband, Doug Emhoff, prompted a standing ovation. Beside me, a woman shouted, “That’s my first gentleman!” Another, just behind us, chimed in: “We love you, Dougie!”

Quite a hit piece from Politico.
FR Putinistas need to buy her book to show their support. LOL
Can’t learn much from Professor Harris.
The money laundering campaign continues. I guess 2 billion wasn’t enough.
I have a theory about celebrity. It doesn’t matter if the celebrity is a good person, bad person, a murderer or whatever. AS long as that person has become a celebrity, he/she/it will have a fan base. The fan base does not care what the person is about or why they’re a celebrity. They are attracted to that celebrity the way a moth will orbit a porch light. They can’t help it. Charles Manson apparently had a fan base as do many murderers in prison. Women send photos and letters to someone who would happily kill them. I think that’s what’s going on here. If someone can explain this phenomenon, I’d be grateful.
Right!!! Even Ted Bundy got someone to marry him!
Interesting they ran this hit piece.
Kamala is their #1 for the next presidential election.
She’s a loser and they’re trying to push her aside. Notice the hit pieces on her not picking Buttigig as her running mate.
But how can they not pick such a strong, smart obviously qualified sorta black woman? They’re boxed in by their own identity politics.
Love it!
Live by the sword-die by the sword!
I’m listening to Bill Mahre podcast. Talking with meathead Rob Reiner and I learned of 3 nevers:
1) Never pass a bathroom.
2) Never waste a hard-on.
3) Never trust a fart.
“Many Democrats are still mired in a state of low-level depression”
…that’s what atheism does to a person. No belief system equals constant misery. If she won they’d be depressed about something else.
;^)
I am certainly no expert, but I do not expect the ‘Rats to try to re-run Harris. There are perennial losers, like Sanders or Paul, but the mainline parties, I thought, tend to weed out the losers.
I had expected that this was one of the motivations for the outlandish cheat of 2020. The ‘Rats expected that they could brand Trump as a loser and close him out.
From what I understand the audio book narrated by her is actually AI.
“””I am certainly no expert, but I do not expect the ‘Rats to try to re-run Harris. “”””””””
Once this book tour is over we will never hear of her again.
The democrats do not want to talk about her or Biden.
“””The book should have been titled,
“It wasn’t my fault”. “”””
During the campaign she morphed into being a BLACK woman.
The title should be ....I DINDU NUFFIN
I read that article, and could not imagine a more cringe event and group of insufferable people than her “book tour” venue.
The Q and A session vapid word salad answers and likely response of the crowd clapping like trained seals would make my head explode.
