Seriously? This is who Democrats think can be their secret weapon for the 2022 midterms. Is the bench really that thin? Also, why isn’t Joe Biden at the top of this list? Doesn’t the president have coattails? No. Not right now—and probably not for the foreseeable future. Inflation is spiking, economic growth is slowing, job creation is evaporating, and we’re a mess abroad. Biden’s trust in handling COVID has also dipped. Afghanistan has collapsed and Joe left Americans stranded. There’s not much this administration can tout. The COVID vaccine isn’t one of them. Biden inherited the vaccine from Donald Trump. It’s why he needs these spending bills to pass, which will add to the deficit and make the inflation crisis worse—but he needs something. So, with Joe in limbo, Democrats think Kamala Harris could be their golden ticket.
If that’s the case, then it’s a tacit acknowledgment that they’re screwed. Joe Biden sucks, but you’ll have to dig through another 50 feet of crap to find Kamala Harris. She’s popular with the base, they say (via The Hill):
Democrats expect Vice President Harris to be a major player in revving up the party’s liberal base ahead of next year’s midterm elections.
Harris’s allies believe she will play a significant role, both by fundraising and participating in campaign rallies.
Democrats see Harris as uniquely positioned to drive up turnout among young people and women, who they believe will be critical to Democrats retaining their majorities in Congress. Historical trends suggest that Republicans should have an edge in the midterm elections, and Democrats say a strong turnout will be key for the party to keep power.
“She is very popular with the base. She is particularly strong with women and with young people. Turn out for young people is going to be critical for the midterms and it is uncertain,” said Celinda Lake, a Democratic pollster who advised President Biden’s campaign. “Between turnout and swing independent women, I would think she would be quite aggressive because of her own appeal and popularity.”
The vice president can also use the midterms to boost her own brand, given questions around whether Biden will seek a second term as he says he intends to do.
Well, the Democratic base mostly lives in areas where the party is going to win anyway. Will this translate to the dozen or so competitive House district? Probably not. Harris’ approvals are worse than Biden’s. She’s AWOL on the border and COVID vaccinations. Her office is in a state of civil war, marred by infighting, isolation, and bad staffing. Even Democrats admit that Harris 2024 or 2028 isn’t a winning ticket. Her nervous tick of laughing when pressured is abysmal—and she, like her boss, is simply not able to do the job. Democrats only have a four-seat majority in the House. I doubt Harris can stop the bleeding. There is a lot of time until the 2022 midterms, but this White House seems content with this endless cycle of setting itself on fire.
I can’t imagine Democrats believing Kamala Harris is their ‘secret weapon.’ This is someone who couldn’t get 2% support in the primary, and is widely disliked.
Their strategy so far has been to run against Trump - Gavin Newsom certainly did during the recall - that’s b/c he - or none of the other Democrats - can run against their records.
And they know it.
There aren’t enough propagandists in the world to sell Cackling Kamala, and the media hasn’t enough credibility left to sell ice water in hell.
With the now perfected voting fraud, dems need no one to vote, they will still win.
Saw a news segment recently where young (presumably college age to just beyond) women were asked.."do you approve of VP Harris's job performance and policies?" and the majority of them said "absolutely! She's awesome.." (or something along those lines).
Next question was.."what specific policy or action of hers impresses you the most"?
Crickets. (Usually accompanied by a vacant stare into space..)
These people supporting her can't name ONE thing she's done, or ONE policy she came up. But, hey, she's a woman..and she's black..so, instant approve!! I have people in my own family that feel this exact same way..
Doesn’t matter media only needs a warm, breathing body to cover the vote fraud.
Don’t be surprised. Dems LOVE Harris, with all her baggage and hypocrisy.
Just proves the old saying, “You can’t fix stupid.”
They’d be better off bringing in fat old Hitlery.
I’m not so sure it matters how unpopular she is. Permanent mail-in voting in so many areas now simply guarantees Democratic victories regardless of what scumbag they run for office
The braying Kamel? Good luck with that. A montage of her insane laughter along side the question being asked is a dream political ad.
How quickly we forget history: An unelectable Xiden was chosen to be installed. Because it was rigged.
There is no interest in running a clean campaign. Look at the funding the communists tried to get passed in the NDAA.
How do the Democrats know whether or not something might just come out of the blue, to upset their absurd feckless apple cart? Like a massive terrorist attack, funded with Biden ransom money, and using billions in weaponry meekly ceded to the terrorist Taliban, and thereby shared with their friends the Iranians, ISIS, and Al Qaeda? The don’t know.
The Camel-Hyena doesn’t have the spine or the chops to deal with that one. And that is just one example of potential surprises we might expect in the coming year. Perhaps she will cackle like a condescending communist cretin? Yeah, that’s the ticket!
Yeah, Obamala Harris got so much support in the primaries she had to drop out so as not to embarrass Xo Xi Dung and the other candidates. /s
Kamala Harris got 1% of the popular vote in the primaries. Seems 99% of the Democrat Party is unimpressed with her
Major player = Free blow jobs
“With the now perfected voting fraud, dems need no one to vote, they will still win.”
Opinions are like aholes, everybody has one even a Soros paid fool like you.
Go peddle your gloom and doom hand wringing shit somewhere else...troll.
Harris is apparently extremely popular among dead and duplicate voters.
