The Harris Campaign Is Desperate To Get Out Of That Debate
I don’t know if there will be a presidential debate or not, but I do know that the Kamala Harris campaign only wants one if it is on their terms. A person refuses to participate in anything unless it is on their terms if they have little to no faith in their abilities to win otherwise. Kamala Harris and her handlers recognize that she not a good debater, nor is she likable in any way while dealing with other human being. Add to that the lack of policy positions that won’t turn off pretty much everyone in the country and you begin to see why they really want out of the only presidential debate.
It's a rarity for a candidate to lose support the more even people who agree with them see of them, yet that’s what Kamala Harris is. In 2019, she was the left’s favorite concept – a black woman who was also an Asian woman (when it suited her needs) and just a woman in general. Like Kamala after a date with Willie Brown, Democrats were ready to wash the bad taste left in their mouths by Hillary Clinton’s loss by nominating and, this time, electing a woman to the presidency.
It was the perfect plan…almost.
After a rush of big fundraising numbers under the banner of the “historic” nature of the candidacy, the public started to listen to Kamala Harris and, well, passed. More like recoiled in horror, but I’ll just say passed because it has broader implications.
With a few months of meeting with the public under her belt, the debates came along and everyone got an unfiltered look at Kamala, at which point they got up and went home.
Kamala Harris was one of those rare candidates that even people who agree with her like less the more the see of her. It’s not that they question their insane left-wing ideals, they simply don’t like them when they’re coming out of her mouth.
The way Harris spoke in the Democratic primary debates in 2019 (she didn’t make it to 2020, dropping out in December) came off with the attitude of someone arrogant impatiently trying to explain to a child how to tie their shoes…for the third time. You can tell she never had kids and see that was probably for the best.
But to everyone else it is insufferable. While Hillary Clinton came off like a condescending kindergarten teacher, Harris came off as the kindergarten teacher who would toss your craft project in the trash if you didn’t get it right by the second time. Add to that the attitude of an arrogant French teacher correcting your pronunciation of “bon jour” a thousand times in a row as you repeat it back to them exactly as they’re saying it, and you can see why Democrats might want to hide her from voters.
She has all the appeal of face wort.
After the Harris campaign insisted on keeping the same debate schedule – just one – as the Biden campaign, they’re not trying to change the rules for it. The Biden campaign insisted on the microphones being muted when it was the other candidate’s turn to speak. That meant Joe had more time to speak, which was his undoing.
The Harris campaign learned from that mistake. They want the candidates to have their mics open the whole time, hoping Donald Trump will interrupt her. The Harris camp knows the more an audience hears from her the less they like her, but they also know that the day following a debate the only thing that matters is that whatever moment voters remember – Reagan’s joke about his age, George Bush checking his watch, Candy Crowley incorrectly correcting Mitt Romney, Trump saying neither he nor Biden have any idea what the hell Joe was trying to say – be in your candidate’s favor.
All Kamala has is the victim card to play. With open mics, expect Kamala to do what she was known for in the Senate, nasally insisting, “I’m speaking.” It’s such a cliché for her that people sell t-shirt with those words and her face on it.
Not only would Trump interrupting her give her the ability to use her catchphrase, it would give her surrogates in the media a chance to accuse Trump of “attempting to silence a woman of color,” or something else equally insulting to the intelligence to anyone with intelligence.
Victimization is all Democrats have. Well, not all. They could actually introduce their agenda and try to sell it to the American people. Just kidding. There’s a reason Democrats don’t talk about what they want to do beyond making things better.
Racist idiot Joy Reid knows this, which is why she tried insisting that Donald Trump’s economy was actually Barack Obama’s economy, even though she and her fellow sub-shoe size IQ army had insisted that Trump’s tax cuts and economic package would destroy the economy in 2017, they now want credit for the results because their ideas failed. They really should be thankful breathing is a reflex, because if it required any brain power whatsoever they would suffocate on the street.
Democrats know they have a candidate that is only good on teleprompter. While Barack Obama was all “ums” and “uhs” when not reading, he at least could eventually get to a point. Hillary Clinton was insufferable to listen to, but she would make a point too. Kamala Harris can’t. Watch her talk about anything unrelated to herself, back when she did interviews, and see if you hear a point.
Her campaign needs her out, but it can’t look like she’s ducking a debate. Anything short of calling the whole thing off requires the debate to be on terms most favorable to her – ones that gives her the chance to play both the “strong women” while others assign her victim status. These people are evil, not stupid.
Trump just needs to stick to his guns – they chose to insist the Biden debate go forward as it was set, only with her instead of him. Make them choke on that. No rules changes, nothing else. The mic off rule was what Democrats insisted on, by refusing to renegotiate the terms of the debate, Trump will force Kamala Harris to perform in circumstances least favorable to her on terms most beneficial to him. Either that or Harris cancels the whole thing. No matter which way it goes, it’s to the benefit of Trump. After that, all he has to do is win it.
