Kamala’s Debate Strategy Is Talking About J6, 2020, And Trump Being A ‘Convicted Felon.’ It’s All She’s Got
Vibes and “joy” have exhausted their mileage. So we’re now seeing the inevitable leveling of the presidential race, in large part thanks to voters getting more exposure to Kamala Harris — who is revealing herself to be the dope she always has been.
That sets things up nicely for this week’s debate on Tuesday, perhaps the only debate that will take place between Kamala and Donald Trump during the entire presidential campaign. There’s no reason to expect it to go well for Kamala. Her demand for the host network, ABC, to keep both candidates’ mics on for the duration of the event was rejected, plus her recent (and still only) national TV interview with CNN served as another reminder that Kamala is in over her head, has no vision for the country, and has no interest in governance.
The logical conclusion is that for Kamala to have any shot at becoming the first American black/Jamaican/Indian woman president, she has to talk about Trump and say nothing about herself, her tenure as vice president currently in the White House, and her first run for president in 2020. All of those things are objectively, demonstrably dismal. There’s no case to be made for Kamala as president, thus she is going to spend the entire debate trying to make a case against her opponent. And that leaves her with just three topics to talk about.
One is Jan. 6, sometimes referred to as “the only riot Democrats and the media didn’t approve of during Trump’s presidency.” Kamala is going to talk about that with the usual lies her party has told since the day it happened — “armed insurrection,” “overturn the election,” “threat to our democracy.” Better that than anything that happened in the three-plus years of her administration, which have been marked by hyperinflation, surges in crime, and a highly fatal withdrawal of American troops in Afghanistan. (Plus two new wars directly implicating the United States, but we’re not keeping score.)
The second is the 2020 election, which Trump legally contested, as Democrats do with election results all the time — even though they now pretend doing so is unthinkable. Kamala will be eager to instigate an extended defense from Trump about the last presidential election because the media have so thoroughly lied about what happened. Her aim is to prod newspapers and cable news shows to microwave all those same lies for their post-debate coverage.
Third is Trump’s legal jeopardy, a thing he faces purely at the behest of Kamala’s current angry administration and her miserable Democrat Party colleagues in local governments up and down the East Coast. She finally posted an “issues” page on her campaign website, offering a thin outline of her policy proposals, one of which is ensuring “no former president has immunity for crimes committed while in the White House.” In other words, as president she’ll keep trying to put Trump in prison. Calling him a “convicted felon” will be 2024’s version of “I’m speaking.”
Kamala will surely get questions from ABC related to policy, but she will pivot each and every time to one of the three talking points above. She has nothing to say on behalf of her terrible, unattractive record. If the debate is about that, she knows she has no chance.
