Just as the border trip beckons, two more staffers flee Kamala Harris

Kamala Harris has been in politics for 18 years, yet still can't quite figure out how to keep staff.

The departure of two top travel advance-women, just as she's heading for the border in a hastily announced trip to get there before President Trump does, suggests that things are getting very bad indeed.

...

Two top aides who oversee travel for Vice President Kamala Harris are departing, leaving the vice president with her critical support staff in flux as she seeks to ramp up travel ahead of big vaccine and voting rights pushes she is planning through July.

...

why Kamala Harris can't keep staff, she has a record of hiring lousy top people who make things miserable for the lower-level ones (such as a sex-harasser back when she was in Sacramento that she claimed to know nothing about). She also treats staff badly, with sudden pay cuts and layoffs and demands for free volunteers, which has got to be bad for morale. Worst of all, she has a chaotic management style, blaming staffers for her own shortcomings, and not allowing staff to do their jobs because the only staffer who matters is apparently her sister Maya, who appears nowhere in the hierarchy. Who'd want a boss like that?

Obviously, her problem is a failure of leadership even at the staff level, a bad thing in a supposed leader of the U.S. She's created her career by sucking up to powerful men, such as Willie Brown, her former "boyfriend," and

...

So as Harris plans a slew of travel, seems to her staff like a good time to leave. Heckuvajob, Kammie. It's almost as if the staff planned their exit this way as if to send Harris a message.

It’s worked well enough to make her VP and in all likelihood, POTUS. Going strictly by results, it’s a fantastic plan.

My choice would almost always be to work for men. Less drama.

I can’t speak about all past Vice Presidents but can confidently say that she is the worst Vice President in modern history. I mean, did Mrs. Xiden think “if I choose her, they won’t 25th Amendment Joe because she’d step into the Presidency?”

I work for a woman. She’s an awesome boss. Former missileer with the 4th.

“She’ll just laugh it off.”


Your comment is the reason Harris’ travel staff is bailing. No doubt, they believe Harris will giggle her way along the border, wear blinders to avoid the devastation caused by unfettered illegal immigration and, when all else fails, blame President Trump. Who wants to be associated with such a walking disaster? Clearly, not her staff.

I had a competent, fair, even somewhat friendly Senior Chief as my boss at my last Navy gig as a Naval Reserve Recruiter. Of course she was an obvious lesbian, but her professionalism and her interaction with her subordinates was outstanding. However, she is the only woman I have ever had as a boss.
