I wrote earlier about the remarks about the economy that both Kamala Harris and Joe Biden made at an event in Maryland.
Harris disqualified herself with ignorant comments, not understanding or perhaps caring that overspending makes inflation worse. She talks about what she would do if she was elected on "day one" -- despite being in power now and not only not solving the problem but making things worse with bad policy. She also praised the "extraordinary Joe Biden."
Meanwhile, Biden couldn't even get her name right, and his brain broke at least a couple of times during his remarks. He also used threatening language against the GOP, saying we are going to "beat the hell out of them." Where is the media to condemn his violence, a little over a month since the assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump?
But there was another embarrassing moment during the event.
Shortly after Vice President Kamala Harris handed over the podium to President Biden on Thursday, dozens of attendees at a joint event simply stood up and left rather than listen to the retiring commander-in-chief.
The rude demonstration was a stark showing of the enthusiasm gap among Democrats revved up by Harris’ sudden elevation as the party’s presidential nominee after Biden dropped out last month — amid reporting that Harris, 59, is seeking to redefine herself to gain distance from the unpopular incumbent.
Adding insult to injury, when Biden, who regularly suffered low attendance at his own election rallies this year, and Harris greeted an overflow room, he was accused by multiple irate protesters of facilitating “genocide” in the Gaza Strip.
So not only did a bunch of people walk out, but Biden got nailed by protesters among the people they chose to greet afterward. Not a good look for the Biden-Harris team. That shows you how little even Democrats think about "sharp as a tack" Joe Biden at this point. I'm thinking that's good evidence that he's probably not making it onto Mount Rushmore any time soon despite whatever Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) says.
Then, on top of that, there were only about 2,300 people reportedly at the event, and that's according to the White House. That's what happens when you don't attach a musician to your rally to help pump up the numbers to look like more people are interested. More than Biden would normally get, but nowhere near Trump numbers. No wonder they're freaking out at the massive Spaces event Trump had with Elon Musk on X. Trump gets far more than 2,300 at virtually any rally he holds. So for Harris, not a big draw at this event.
Democrats can spin all the hype they want, but the economy is the top issue for most people, and Harris, even if she tries, is not going to be able to divorce herself from the failures of which she was a part.
