“Yet many Democrats… are concerned she could not defeat whomever the Republican Party puts up — even if it were Donald Trump.”
There’s unlikable. Then there’s Kamala-level unlikable.
There’s unlikable. Then then there’s Kamala-level unlikable.
Hillary was unlikable, but as least she won a Democrat Party nomination. That’s more than Kamala Harris can say. She was so unlikable that she was forced to drop out of the Democrat primaries before the first vote was cast. Even Democrats didn’t like her.
Yet here she is. The sitting Vice President of these United States of America, with a substantial chance of becoming President as Joey from Scranton’s already dimming mental acuity continues to fade. But let’s say Joey hangs on to 2024, but decides not to run for reelection, or is incapable of running, Kamala will be the presumptive and unstoppable nominee.
That has Democrat insiders worried. They are leaking about how dysfunctional she is, not that a leak was needed for that. Hence the recent story based on Politico reporting, Insiders Reveal Kamala Harris’ VP Office Is A Toxic Abusive Mess, Just Like Her Campaign.
More leaks to Axios, Biden aide charges “sabotage” of Harris:
Top White House officials are mobilizing to defend Vice President Kamala Harris amid a gusher of leaks about dysfunction and infighting in her office.
Driving the news: White House Chief of Staff Ron Klain told Axios in a statement: “The President’s trust and confidence in her is obvious when you see them in the Oval Office together.” Biden senior adviser Cedric Richmond said in an interview late Thursday night: “It’s a whisper campaign designed to sabotage her.”
Details: Their responses came after Axios approached the White House with new reporting about growing tensions between West Wing officials and the Harris team, including chief of staff Tina Flournoy.
- Some White House officials have been frustrated by a series of missteps from Harris and increasingly public bickering in her orbit, which spilled out in a Politico story on Wednesday. Flournoy’s old boss, former President Bill Clinton, came to her defense with a statement calling her “an extraordinary person.”
Here’s the money line from the Axios report:
Yet many Democrats, including some current senior administration officials, are concerned she could not defeat whomever the Republican Party puts up — even if it were Donald Trump.
I don’t know about that. I mean even unlikable Hillary was able to defeat … oh, nevermind.

“Hillary was unlikable, but as least she won a [RIGGED] Democrat Party nomination.”
Fixed it for you.
More to the point, it loos to me like the Dems are preparing to remove Harris to set things up for when Biden resigns just as the Republicans did to Agnew when it became clear that Nixon would have to be resign or be impeached.
Okay, the insiders remove Harris. What then?
Her replacement will have to be confirmed. When Agnew resigned and Ford was nominated to be VP, both houses had to give consent, per the 25th Am.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1973_United_States_vice_presidential_confirmation
Ford was basically acclaimed, and sailed through. Who today could the insiders put up that would get consent?
This is where the Never Trump Republicans could really mess things up. We are in uncharted waters and will have to go there and engage in what is sure to be a desperate fight for survival.
The Uniparty is clearly terrified of Trump storming through 2022 like General Sherman’s march to the sea. It’s already started and the crowds are Y-U-U-U-G-E!!! Trump is more popular than ever!
“Kamala will be the presumptive and unstoppable nominee.”
Yes, because that, too will be [RIGGED]. Challengers will be gagged and cancelled.
Well there is this theory:
https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2021/07/02/kamala-harris-facing-white-house-sabotage-as-establishment-media-lays-out-pete-buttigiegs-path-to-presidency/
We just had the first gay black president so why not the first gay chicken president?
https://ethnicelebs.com/pete-buttigieg
Will the media ever be rightfully scorched for their deafening silence on the gross inadequacies of both offices in this administration?
No.
No, And why would you even expect them to? They’re part of it!
Media? What media?… That is gone, long gone.
Okay, so the question is, why did they pick her to be Biden’s VP?
Virtue signal.
Trifecta – female, black, progressive.
No, no, no, no, no, no. Harris was chosen exactly BECAUSE she would done for very quickly.
We’ll all find out EXACTLY why Harris was chosen (and to be kicked out) when her replacement is discussed.
Don’t be surprised if it’s Jill Biden.
You must say, “DOCTOR jill”
She’s like a breath of fresh air.
Goddess in Stillettos…per Vogue.
You mean, ‘Verkakte’ Jill, don’t you?
https://www.wordsense.eu/verkakte/#English
Or as Joe said, “She’s like a breath of fresh hair.”
Nah. Jill Biden is a consummate stage mommy, but not a major Swamp player.
When Joe finally goes to that nice farm upstate, Jill will get a gold watch and a ticket to Elba.
Watch Pelosi.
Verkakte Jill has other ideas.
I think Pelosi’s too old, but I wouldn’t put it past them- or her.
Again, how is she going to pass the Senate? If the vice presidency is vacant then the Dems no longer have a majority.
Biden boxed himself in when running for the m=nomination, he had very few choices
I disagree. Harris was chosen because they knew she’s disposable.
“Whomever I pick, preferably it will be someone who was of color and/or a different gender, but I’m not making that commitment until I know that the person I’m dealing with I can completely and thoroughly trust as authentic and on the same page.”
Kinda axed his options there.
The other name floated was Stacey Abrams. So did we catch or dodge a bullet?
While Stacey Abrams was considered, it was determined she couldn’t fit on the campaign billboards.
Wasn’t Abrams’ “being considered” status mostly, if not entirely, because she was willing to get on every TV program she possibly could and speak to any reporter willing to interview her so she could lobby to be considered? And after a while of that Biden’s camp finally put an end to it by saying they weren’t considering her and had no plans to do so?
If I recall correctly they floated the name of just about every deeply tanned female Democrat they could find, including a number of ‘Who Dat?’ Congresscritters and the mayor of Atlanta before she botched the response to the Rayshard Brooks shooting. I have no idea if that was to flatter the women, make it look like they were doing an exhaustive search, or were just desperate to find somebody other than Harris to nominate after Biden made that pledge.
Because Biden needed South Carolina in the primary and Congressman Jim Clyburn could deliver it to him. But in return, he wanted Biden to guarantee his VP would be a black woman. ckings were slim and Biden picked Harris. He then won the NC primary which propelled him to the nomination. Harris is NOT what anyone wanted but the others were at least as bad.
It wouldn’t have mattered since the Dems were prepared to steal whatever votes they needed.
Harris is Hillary 2.0 without the killer capability of the CCF (Clinton Crime Family). Harris was the pick of the Central Committee, pulled from the primaries so as to not face defeat (at the hands of Tulsi). A truly “selected” candidate since the election was a “sure thing”. Now to “remove” Harris from the line of succession… how to do a two-step to replace Harris and then Biden. Maybe the temporary payoff will be Biden , then Harris followed by the selected VP to become prez. Paging Michelle My Belle O.
Michelle Obama is rich beyond her wildest dreams. She lives in a mansion in DC when she isn’t at her seaside mansion on Martha’s Vineyard. Celebrities and the press fawn over her. Why in the world would she EVER consider politics?
Answer: she won’t
Perhaps Michelle will want to leave Martha’s Vineyard before the rising seas due to global warming overtake her home? Don’t we only have until 2030?
Don’t overlook their 3rd home in Kailua, Hawaii, the Estate they vacationed at 8 years Obama was in office.
And their house in Chicago, which they rarely visit.
I still laugh that Biden’s handlers set him up with a VP who publicly stated she believed he was a sex offender.
Hillary Clinton is nothing, really. She just rides Bills coattails. Bill is sociopathic traitor, who destroyed the presidency and gave Red China missle technology.
https://mattstoller.substack.com/p/how-bill-clinton-and-american-financiers
Scum, but he was brilliant.
Hillary? No. Just a loudmouth First Lady in at the right time.
to be fair,
had Hillary won in 2008 , she would have been a better president than Obama,
She would never have outsourced a Health care plan to Pelosi that she would be too lazy to have bothered to read.
You really believe that?
Do you remember “Hillarycare?”
Do you remember what happened to it?
yes, but she would have bothered to read the Pelosi bill
And what’s more, Pelosi wouldn’t rip up Hillary’s state of union speech.
The only difference is that Hillary Clinton would have been too distracted stealing and extorting to do the kind of damage Obama did intentionally.
“….do a two-step to replace Harris and then Biden.”
I think that is correct. They will want to remove Harris first. Maybe they will hand her over to Jen Psaki and tell her to circle back and that will be the last you ever see of her.
Again; once she’s out the Dems no longer have a senate majority, so how does her replacement pass the senate?
…because nobody real in the Democrat Party expected to win against DJT. Probably most of them were not aware of the fraud that was planned.
Meh. Even Biden knew about it.
“We have put together, I think, the most extensive and inclusive voter fraud organization in the history of American politics.”
Joe Biden has been a gaffe machine his entire life. He graduated 8th from the bottom at Syracuse Law. In his two prior runs for the presidency he dropped out without having won a single primary or caucus. Democrat primary voters did not like him.
GHWB had an 80% approval rating a year before he lost re-election.
None of the “smart people” believed Trump had a chance. Almost no polls had him winning in ’16..
We think of ourselves as rational, We often are not. That’s why elections are so unpredictable.
Both Clinton and Biden and the PACs that supported them outraised Trump by 2x (which is why you no longer ever hear a peep from Democrats about getting “money out of politics”.) With that sort of huge money advantage, never, ever count Kamala out.
8th from the bottom of a third tier school
But, but… it took so many others to beat him!
Plus two brain surgeries for brain aneurysms, one of which had burst. Biden has nothing on Chauncey Gardiner.
BREAKING NEWS!
Incompetent, unlikable idiot who dropped out of the primary because nobody could stand her continues to be incompetent, unlikable idiot.
This is what happens when your primary criteria for your ‘leaders’ is their skin color.
Skin color and indoor plumbing.
This is what happens when you don’t think ahead what you’re next move will be.
Hey! She’s the FIRST!
That’s IMPAWTINT!!!!
I have seen numerous cases of blacks with a big “I am entitled chip on their shoulder” who thought that people’s dislike was racism, it was not, if they were white they would still be disliked. People don’t like attitude, they do not like slackers, because they have to pickup the slack.
OK, color me, a far out tin foil hatter. I think the plan was for Sleepy to make it past 2022, then have him resign. Move Giggly up to POTUS, appoint Newsom as VP. Then, either Giggly resigns or doesn’t run in 2024–setting Newsom up for eight years.
Unfortunately, bunch of wheels came off that wagon–if it ever existed to begin with. If they lose the House and or Senate in 2022, they are going to have a hell of a time getting a VP approved. Newsom will probably not get recalled–the Democrats do the counting, after all–but he is damaged goods.
End of tin foil hattery.
The Dems are not worried about losing because the dead vote always swings the election in their favor. Mitt Romney said he was going to recommend a committee look into it. “At this point, it’s complete mystery why dead voters always vote Democrat,” he said. “Even John McCain is voting Democrat now.”
I hear McCain voted in the 2020 election.
Absentee?
I have three words that’ll get pretty much any VP approved if Harris takes over.
President Nancy Pelosi.
I’ll admit I’ve been on both sides of the fence on Biden getting 25th’ed but I’ve always considered some sort of pre-election deal to be pretty far fetched, or at least likely to be broken once “Dr.” Jill et al got a taste of being in the Oval Office.
I’m not a deep student of Democrat Party politics but there seems to be a continuing struggle between the Clinton and Obama camps.
Harris’ chief of staff, who is taking a bunch of the heat for the problems in Harris’ camp, worked in the Clinton White House. The West Wing is crawling with people from the Obama Administration. I would not be surprised if there is a concerted effort going on in the West Wing to try to force Fournoy out and put someone of their preference in that spot.
Very much doubt Joe finishes his first term, let alone get a second. Kamala even if she somehow gets the nomination will not win the election unless the dems cheat so hard and massively nobody believes it was an honest election. Like the Professor says up there “Kamala level unlikable”! With the recent win for Arizona in the Supreme Court over their election laws I wouldn’t be surprised to see other red states adopt similar measures in their states to prevent Dem cheating if they don’t have them already.
While we’re on the subject here’s a couple of fun question to ask others you may chat politics with: when’s the last time we’ve had back to back one term presidents? Back to back as determined by elections and not other factors? The last one term president we had was George Bush Sr and that was late 80s to early 90s. I think we’ve kinda gotten used to as a country having whoever gets in office serving two terms but if you look back at our history there are a number of men who only served one term, particularly during the 1800s.
That would be the period of 1920-1932, with Harding, Coolidge, and Hoover serving one term each.
I think Ford/Carter qualifies. Ford didn’t even get a full term.
The same fools who voted for Biden because they didn’t like Trump’s “mean tweets” will vote for Harris because they don’t want to think of themselves as racist and sexist, which is how the national media will portray all opposition to her campaign.
Well, they’ve already proven they know how to set up the most organized voter fraud organization in US history. Doesn’t have to be believable, when you have MSM and their shills on Twatter and Fakebook gaslighting everyone about the “most secure election” evah.
Great point Mr. Prince… I don’t think the candidate matters. The machines can pick whomever their controllers decide they want to install.
The streak we were on between Clinton’s election in 1992 and Trump’s loss in 2020 was unusual. We had three back to back two term Presidents (Clinton, W, Obama). The last time that happened was the early 1800s (Jefferson, Madison, Monroe).
Coolidge was only elected once but he served out Harding’s term after he died in office, so that streak kinda fits. Those three are also one of the few times that different candidates of the same party have won election three times in a row, the other pairs in the 20th Century being FDR and Truman, and Reagan and GHWB.
Meh. Harris’ unpopularity just means the inevitable, mysterious 4AM vote dump will have to be larger than in 2020.
“More to the point, it loos to me like the Dems are preparing to remove Harris to set things up for when Biden resigns just as the Republicans did to Agnew when it became clear that Nixon would have to be resign or be impeached.”
IIRC there were accusations that Agnew had committed crimes. I’m not sure you can get rid of a VP without such evidence.
Agnew was an accomplished man. He didn’t engage in sex acts with homely old women to get the jobs he did, as Harris did with homely old men.
Harris really is a cardboard cut-out. And an unlikeable one at that.
Riiiight. That’s why he pleaded nolo contendere to corruption charges.
The point is, he was moderately competent, though also a crook. Harris isn’t even competent enough to make it as a crook. I mean, publicly bragging about how much dope she was blowing while she was imprisoning people for blowing dope. That’s Mensa material.
I don’t think Agnew’s corruption charges were engineered by the Republicans, either. It was a widely-known joke at the time that Nixon had chosen the unlikable Agnew as “assassination insurance.” It would have made no sense for Republicans to cancel that policy right before needing it most.
If the Democrats want to shuffle Harris offstage, they won’t do it through official mechanisms that involve crimes and indictments. They’ll blackmail her or threaten her family with the Arkancide squad, and convince her to resign voluntarily to “explore new opportunities.”
And with that- there were multiple columnists in BALTIMORE who opined that for all the accusations against Agnew, he was the most honest governor Maryland had had in decades.
I didn’t say he wasn’t a crook. Al Capone was an accomplished man – evil, but accomplished. So were genocidal maniacs Hitler, Stalin and Mao. All these people ‘made it’ on their own.
Not Harris.
the only thing she beat was Willy Brown.
She licked him good.
She probably vomited after each act, but a whore’s got to do what a whore’s got to do.
This report is very unfair to Kamala. She did lose the nomination because she’s unlikeable. She’s stupid, too.
They will have a hard time dumping Kamala off, more when it looks Sundowner is done.
As long as the Senate remains split 50-50, she isn’t going anywhere since they need her as a tiebreaker. But if they removed her despite that, they’d need to have a plan in place to swiftly confirm someone new to take over that role.
And just my opinion, if they did move to get rid of her, it would be because some sort of scandal appeared that made the case for it open and shut, and then she’d be presented with the option to resign or be removed.
Imagine the videos Willie Brown must have in his Kamala Harris collection.
The “scandal” might be that it suddenly becomes unacceptable that she is descended from a major slaveholder in Jamaica, by her father’s own account.
Sigh. Once again, she is descended from a white slave owner in exactly the same way most black Americans are. Nobody outside the stupid fringe right thinks that’s a point against her.
The slave owner in question was white. Her father and his family are all black. The dots connect themselves.
“She won’t need to” -Eric Coomer
In the past 8 years we saw a rigged Democrat nomination and a fraudulent election. Why does Kamala’s electability matter?
… a magnum of chardonnay.
Finished it for you, ProfJ. 😉
Saddam Hussein was a vicious sadistic SOB.. But he had a point when he said people favor the “strong horse” And if Kamala is the Dim’s choice for President in 2024, they’re running a spavined jackass. Kackling Kamala may be some part of a horse’s anatomy, but she is not a strong horse.
If the Ds put up Kamala Harris, and the Rs put up a homeless dog from an animal shelter–any homeless dog will do–I will vote for the dog.
As for 2020, remember that the demented Roman Emperor Caligula made his horse a Roman Consul. The Democrats put up Kamala Harris in 2020. At least the Romans got the ENTIRE horse; we got the horse’s rear end.
The D’s worrying now about Kamala in ’24 if Joe is put out to pasture is entertaining. How soon will they start talking about primarying Kamala?
Agreed. Kamala is there if they need her before 2024. they will fix the primary to get whomever they want as a candidate for 2024. Easy Peasy.
Don’t forget how large the Dems’ primary field was: Mayor Pete, Beto, Bernie, etc. There are PLENTY of people who would love to challenge Kamala in the primaries, especially after her pitiful showing the last time around.
How in the world will they get a replacement confirmed if they get rid of Kamala?
Romney, Murkowski, Collins. Cheney and about eight others in the House.
If not for Hillary, Bernie may well have been into his second term now.
Many Democrats… are concerned she could not defeat whomever the Republican Party puts up –
Really???
