MSNBC's Kasie Hunt: Kamala Appealing to 'Coalition of Ascendant'
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 01/28/2019 7:01:00 AM PST by governsleastgovernsbest

Sounding more like a feminist fan than a "correspondent," Kasie Hunt has enthused over the proliferation of women candidates in the 2020 Dem field.

Appearing on today's Morning Joe, MSNBC correspondent Hunt said it was a "real victory" that the fact that Harris is the third woman [along with Elizabeth Warren and Tulsi Gabbard] to have announced her candidacy is "unremarkable." Sounds like "correspondent" Hunt is cheering for Team Woman.

As for Harris's campaign strategy, if you're a working-class man, don't hold your breath waiting for Kamala to come knocking at your door. Hunt said that Harris is basically writing off that demographic, in favor of appealing to the "coalition of the ascendant."

But if you are Wealthy and have Influence she will be on her knees or her back for you, whichever you prefer.

Sorry Kamal. The road to the White House goes by Hillary Clintoon’s house. Watch out for those FBI SWAT teams.

MSNBC’s Kasie Hunt says Kamala Harris has made a conscious decision to write off white guys and make her campaign about identity politics, AKA “the coalition of the ascendant.”

Ping to Liberal Media Criticism list.

She’s a real creep, how telling when she said that she is for unity but then she made it very clear that she was not talking about the same unity as some other people and that we are not included in her unity. She also spoke of collective purpose when discussing freedom she is a real leftist problem.

By the end of the month the Dem crowd who have announced they are running will be over a couple of dozen. By Summer it will be a cast of thousands.

First, fill the minds of the masses with a bunch of stupefying lies that appeal to their base desires.

The ignorant are easier to lead.

I guess after the Kenyan Usurpation it’s probably a pretty moot point, but is the cameltoe even eligible to be POTUS??

Racist and sexist. Probably stomps puppies at home for fun. Oh, and Kamala is not a NBC. She is ineligible.

Is she aware that Kamala is a “Whore”? Then again, maybe that doesn’t matter to her.

it's just inexplicable that people still have hillary on the brain. most of hillary's 2016 campaign team signed up with KH; even if hillary wanted to run, she'd be down to bill and chelsea for staff.

I hope people will force liberals & feminists to resolve a contradiction. Either
1) There’s no difference between men and women.
* Google was right to fire James Damore.
* Gillette is wrong to attack men since men are not different from women
* The #metoo movement is bogus
* Gender pay gap is a valid issue we should fix and strictly based on bias and discrimination
* There’s no reason to vote for a female simple because of genitalia

or

2) There are differences between men and women.
* Google should apologize to James Damore.
* MANY other individuals and corporations should apologize to many other people
* We need to stop pushing for equality in everything (pay, hiring quotas, ...).
* EEOC and Title IX and college diversity officers need stop insisting that male/female ratios in an organisation match the male/female ratios of the general population. The same with any other government or non-government group that bases arguments on gender ratios.
* There are valid reasons that clubs, scouts, schools, and other organizations only include one gender.
* Gender-based lawsuits need to stop. There’s a reason other than personal bias that the fire department, and police, and army, and so many other jobs (e.g. google developer) have more men than women and other jobs have more women than men. And standards/tests/requirements should not be changed to get a balance that matches the population.

Hillary tried this strategy, and it didn’t work. The key to Trump’s victory was winning white working-class voters in the Midwest. If the Dems write them off again, Trump will be in good shape.
