The deluded Cult of Kamala is now blindly worshipping a vacuous, policy-free and utterly inept leader. But, says MAUREEN CALLAHAN, this might just be the rocket fuel Trump sorely neededAug. 24, 2024
As parties go, this one was glitzy, slick, star-studded and electric.
By the time Kamala Harris took the stage at the DNCon Thursday evening, we had been told by the Obamas, Oprah, the Clintons, Hollywood and Harris herself that there is no one better to be the next American president, because…
After a week of this, I still can't tell you.After a week of the mainstream media insisting the same, I'm at a loss.
I doubt I'm alone.
We just witnessed not so much a convention as a coronation.This entire production, created to sell a product named Kamala, was utterly Orwellian.
Had you awoken from a coma, or alighted from Mars, you'd have no idea that Harris, just months ago, was considered the Democratic party's biggest liability: Unserious, unprepared, unlikable.
Nancy Pelosi, historically, has not been a fan.Speaking to Anderson Cooper on CNN in September last year, Joe Biden still the nominee, Pelosi was characteristically slippery.
Cooper: 'Is Vice President Kamala Harris the best running mate for this president?'
Pelosi: 'He thinks so. And that's what matters.'
Cooper: 'But do you think she's the best running mate, though?'
Pelosi: 'She's the Vice President of the United States.'
Ouch.
Harris's mentor and one-time lover, the nonagenarian former San Francisco mayorWillie Brown, recently told Politico that she suffers from 'Hillary syndrome' — that 'people don't like her'.
And, of course, there's that unforgettable Washington Post exposé from December 2021, not quite a year into Harris's tenure as Vice President, in which multiple ex-staffers alleged she was a cruel boss who never buckled down, or read her briefing notes, or took responsibility for her own lack of preparedness.
'It's clear that you're not working with somebody who is willing to do the prep and the work,' one ex-staffer said. 'With Kamala, you have to put up with a constant amount of soul-destroying criticism and also her own lack of confidence. So you're constantly sort of propping up a bully.'
Yet all we heard, this DNC, was how kind and decent Harris is – the epitome of compassion!
Oh, the left's endless capacity for moral hypocrisy.
That hypocrisy extends to facts: Until Biden dropped out, we were told that so-called 'Bidenomics' has led to the greatest era of American prosperity ever. As of last week, not so.
Harris now says she wants to create an 'opportunity economy' — as if she hasn't been in the White House the past four years — by instituting federal price controls at grocery stores and offering $25,000 in down payments for first-time homebuyers.
It's all very Communist-adjacent, the kind of limousine liberalism that has led to the new proposal, out of Gavin Newsom's California, that would allow undocumented migrants to buy homes with interest-free state loans.
Where, oh where, is the actual media?Why do I feel like I'm reading Pravda and watching state-sponsored TV?
Scant outlets are being honest about Harris's ineptitude, about her policy-free acceptance speech, about yet another Democratic campaign run from the metaphorical basement.
Here was CBS's Gayle King, officially a national embarrassment, in an actual interview with Nancy Pelosi on Thursday: 'How hard is it to campaign while having the burden of making history at the same time?'
Harrisworld still doesn't get it, their fervor now evoking extreme religiosity – despite their false idolatry, rebranding and worshiping this most flippant, frivolous woman as someone who just wants to spread 'joy'.
No matter that Harris has yet to sit for a single interview or give one presser, despite all the welcoming options: King, Oprah, Rachel Maddow, all of whom would give her soft-focus lighting and leave a mint on her pillow.
'The path that led me here these past few weeks,' Harris told the crowd, 'was unexpected.'
Was it, really? It's become increasingly apparent that Nancy Pelosi and Barack Obama orchestrated a weeks-long coup after that disastrous June debate, plunging the long knives into Biden's back….
