Kamala Harris Is Laughably Desperate, and Her Latest Moves Prove It
RedState ^ | October 15, 2024 | Bonchie

It's incredible how quickly things can change in politics. In August, Vice President Kamala Harris was riding a surge of manufactured "joy," backed by a mountain of positive press and an avalanche of donor cash. Spilling into early September, the polling landscape was still pretty friendly to her, and she was on the verge of building an air of inevitability. Others warned, though, that the sugar high would soon fade.

Harris' fortunes have completely reversed in states like Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. At the same time, the national polling has tightened to the point where the Republican electoral college advantage could sweep Donald Trump into the White House. The vice president is no longer feeling the "joy," and her desperation has become palpable.

What was once a focused if not overly cautious campaign has become a flailing mess.

While there are several problem areas for Harris, none is more concerning than her lack of connection to male voters. Who could have guessed that having Gov. Tim Walz (D-MN) on the ticket wouldn't represent a boon of masculine outreach?

So with less than three weeks before election day, the Harris campaign is throwing everything against the wall. First and foremost, she's trying to get on Joe Rogan's top-rated podcast.

Forget the polls. If Harris, who struggles to do short, pre-taped interviews with left-wing networks like CBS News, wants to go on Rogan, she knows she's crashing and burning. To be it simply, this is not something she'd do if she didn't feel like she was losing. Rogan's show is live and long. Harris would be expected to discuss a wide range of topics, including facing questions she hasn't been asked before, without knowing a friendly group of editors is going to copy and paste her answers to cover up her fumbles.

That's not the only tell, though. Harris also recently rushed out a plan for black men, which included giving "one million forgivable loans" and federally legalizing weed.

It'd be funny if it wasn't so sad. Harris and her party see black men as nothing more than helpless weed addicts in need of a hand-out. Will this move change the calculus that has seen Trump gain ground with one of the Democratic Party's strongest demographics? I would guess not. Again, this all feels incredibly haphazard. You can almost picture Harris' handlers sitting around a table, trying to brainstorm how to appeal to men, with some staffer saying, "What if we promise black guys free money and legal weed?"

With that said, do you want to know the biggest piece of evidence that Harris is floundering? She's now going to appear on Fox News in an interview with Bret Baier.

That would be the same Bret Baier who was going to moderate the debate Harris refused to show up for. She and her campaign have long spurned Fox News, suggesting there's no reason for her to appear on the network. Yet, here she is, coming to do an interview in the waning moments of the presidential race.

What does that tell you? It tells you that she's desperate. I don't know what the final tally will be when all the votes are counted, but I know that Harris thinks that she's going to lose if something doesn't change. How effective will all of this be? I'd speculate not very. Men aren't robots just waiting for the vice president to reprogram them by showing up on Joe Rogan's show. I also think black men aren't so easily swayed by shallow, somewhat insulting promises either.

Is it true Harris has begun dippin’ snuff in hopes of drawing more “white duds with one of them there huntin’ licenses?”

They are only worried about one thing:

They need to her her poll numbers up so the steal looks believable.

That ad with “regular guys” for Harris is the funniest thing I have seen all year. It looks like a parody, but it seems that they were serious. It was guys cos playing straight guys. Lol. If that thing wasn’t a sign of desperation, then what was it?

I think the Dems have some concern that they may not be able to cheat enough to win. Not panic, not desperation, but some concern.

My guess is that Bret Baier will treat her with kid gloves and the Fox “interview” will be touted as a huge success. Fox is owned by liberals, and I don’t trust Baier.

Do they even care if it looks believable? Biden isn’t all that believable.

Would venture to guess most men don’t want a particularly and obviously dumb low IQ wife or girlfriend to be seen with or stuck with. Could be that simple, and that nervous, constant babble from The Cackler doesn’t help either.

They don’t even need the poll numbers up. They’ll just steal the election by blatant and obvious methods. They need to get Harris elected (and prevent Trump) in order to crush all hope remaining with non-liberals.

cdcdawg @6: "Do they even care if it looks believable?"

NO! Traitorcrats openly advocate and enable murder by abortion, allow kidnapping children from parents, and deliberately give aid and comfort to the domestic and foreign enemies of the United States.

The Traitorcrats will be proud of their election fraud they commit.

It’s as if that every aspect of that ad was AI-generated. “I eat carburetors for breakfast”?

When they sent out the metrosexual mixed race Obama to chastise black male voters, you knew they were in trouble.

They should’ve sent out Fani Willis’ boyfriend/prosecutor.

He’s not busy these days.

Brett Baier Scheduled to Interview Kamala Harris – Tomorrow, Wednesday

October 15, 2024 | Sundance 

According to Fox News, the notoriously disappointing Brett Baier is scheduled to interview Kamala Harris on Wednesday, October 16th.

A traditional political review would indicate that Harris’ campaign must be very concerned about internal polling showing her well behind in the polls, the opposite claim from current corporate media.  However, caution should be applied as the Murdoch interests are diametrically opposed to the interests of President Trump and the America-First movement.

/>

Baier is notorious for NOT asking the right questions.  So much so, that his position as controlled opposition for the Ryan wing of the Republican apparatus has been clearly visible for the past several years.

Some may think that Baier might take this opportunity to re-solidify himself as a honest broker; but that view only affirms the customary battered conservative mindset.  Brett Baier does what his handler(s) tell him to do.  Expect no truthful support from the interview. It is much more likely this is just another UniParty media effort.

“My guess is that Bret Baier will treat her with kid gloves and the Fox “interview” will be touted as a huge success. Fox is owned by liberals, and I don’t trust Baier.”

Correct.

In general, I don’t mind Baier when he reports the news but I get the feeling that he wants to be regarded as “one of the guys’ - ex: David Muir, Lester Holt, etc. For that reason, he won’t ask Harris too many tough questions or if he does, he won’t press her on her answers.

I’d feel better if the interviewer were Hannity or Levin.
