When Kamala Harris ran for the Dim nomination in 2020 she was such a flop that she dropped out before the first primary vote was cast. Still Joe Biden picked her to be VP, because he’d promised to name a BIPOC woman, which she is.
Before Joe Biden’s disastrous debate performance the conventional wisdom was that Kamala Harris was a failed Vice President. She was seen as a DEI hire who performed even more poorly than such hires normally do.
It turns out the conventional wisdom about her was correct. Even with the party behind her and abetted by their lapdog media, four years later she has done a poor job of being the nominee. It begins to look like she won’t win.
