Kamala Harris Tag

The 'Trump War Room' operation of the Trump campaign was ready with an attack ad on the pick of Kamala Harris, branding her as "phony." This branding, as I pointed out with regard to Trump branding people, only works if there is some truth to it and it resonates with the public perception.

Joe Biden said today that he would announce his choice of running mate next week. Politico appears to have jumped the gun, explaining in an article why Biden chose Kamala Harris, a detail they quickly deleted and then updated. Luckily, some people on Twitter caught the detail before it was changed.

There has been a ton of speculation about who Joe Biden will choose as a running mate. He narrowed it down a bit during the last Democratic debate by plainly stating that he would choose a woman. Since then, most people agreed that the short list included four people.

It's safe to assume Senator Kamala Harris (D-CA) is on the shortlist of possible running mates for Joe Biden. Harris has made it clear that she supports Biden's candidacy now that he is the presumptive nominee. Back in 2019, however, she was saying something very different.

Former HUD Secretary Julián Castro endorsed Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) on Monday a few days after he dropped out of the race. However, former Vice President Joe Biden's campaign told The Texas Tribune that he picked up 11 new endorsements from Texas. Nine of those people once supported Castro. Biden's campaign also said that he now has more support from those who backed Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA).

Senator Kamala Harris' presidential campaign has seen highs and lows since she officially entered the race back in January. Yet outside of the two-week time frame after the first Democratic debate where her campaign looked unstoppable, it's been mostly lows. So how does a Democratic candidate, who has run out of excuses for why she can't recapture her brief flirtation with momentum, explain away her campaign woes? Trot out the trusty, dusty race and sexism cards, that's what.
