You're Watching the Harris Campaign Fall Apart In Real Time

Brandon Morse reporting for RedState 

Watching the Harris campaign is like watching a ship sink beneath the waves, despite the fact that the motor is still turning. I'm not going to tell you Donald Trump has a guaranteed win, but I've been stating for some time now that I'm not entirely sure how Kamala Harris could suddenly become a worthy candidate, and the Democrats are going to pull a dark miracle out of thin air and give her a fighting chance. 

Harris isn't a good candidate. She hasn't been a good candidate since 2020, and despite initial attempts at making her seem like one after the coup took Joe Biden out of the running — which it seems many Democrats are now understanding was a mistake — Harris is continuously tripped up by the fact that she's Kamala Harris, an awkward, uncharismatic radical who has a talent for failing upward. 

Moreover, she's up against someone who is experienced in politics, business, foreign policy, and is just actually charismatic. 

Her chance was always slim. 

I always knew that as we drifted closer to the election, the Harris campaign would get more and more desperate. Things would be said and done that would really drive up the rhetoric and division. It's a natural part of U.S. elections at this point, especially because the left truly believes Trump is a threat to America. They've certainly spent a lot of time, money, and resources trying to convince the world of this, and in the process they fully indoctrinated themselves. 

But this latest move from the Harris campaign is a doozy. 

As RedState has been reporting, Kamala Harris made an official statement as VP, not as a candidate, that Donald Trump is just like Hitler. That is not hyperbole; that was the core of her statement: 

"Yesterday we learned that Donald Trump's former chief of staff, John Kelly, a retired four-star general, confirmed that while Donald Trump was president he said he wanted generals like Adolf Hitler had. Donald Trump said that because he does not want a military that is loyal to the U.S. Constitution; he wants a military that is loyal to him. He wants a military who will be loyal to him personally, one that will obey his orders even when he tells them to break the law or abandon their oath to the Constitution of the United States."

In just the past week Donald Trump has repeatedly called his fellow Americans the enemy from within and even said that he would use the United States military to go after American citizens. And let's be clear about who he considers to be the enemy from within: anyone who refuses to bend a knee or dares to criticize him would qualify, in his mind, as the enemy within. Like judges, like journalists, like non-partisan election officials.

It is deeply troubling and incredibly dangerous that Donald Trump would invoke Adolf Hitler, the man who was responsible for the deaths of 6 million Jews and hundreds of thousands of Americans.

All of this is further evidence for the American people of who Donald Trump really is. This is a window into who Donald Trump really is, from the people who know him best, from the people who worked with him side by side in the Oval Office and in the Situation room.

And it is clear from John Kelly's words that Donald Trump is someone who I, quote, certainly falls into the general definition of fascist, who in fact vowed to be a dictator on day one, and vowed to use the military as his personal militia, to carry out his personal and political vendettas.

Donald Trump is increasingly unhinged and unstable, and in a second term people like John Kelly would not be there to be the guard rails against his propensities and his actions. Those who once tried to stop him from pursuing his worst impulses would no longer be there, and no longer be there to rein him in."

Her source that Trump said this? A debunked claim by disgraced journalist Jeffrey Goldberg. Trump never said it, yet Harris is claiming he did. Why? 

Desperation. Pure, uncut desperation. 

Trump's campaign also picked up on the desperation just oozing from her campaign and said so in their response, calling Harris a "stone-cold loser who is increasingly desperate because she is flailing, and her campaign is in shambles."

The bottom line here is that you don't invoke Hitler unless you have nothing else. It is the bottom of the barrel in terms of accusations, and the only time it actually makes sense to invoke Hitler's name is when it absolutely, accurately applies. For instance, bringing up Hitler and the Nazis makes total sense when you're discussing the pro-Palestine, anti-Israel rallies and activists that the Democrat Party seem so scared to upset. 

It should be understood that Hitler wasn't just some historical villain. This is a man that killed millions of people, as Harris herself reminded us during her "Trump is Hitler derp dur derp" speech. To use Hitler as some lazy desperation move to score cheap political points is insanely disrespectful to all those people who died. It's just part of the reason why you don't just throw those kinds of accusations out.

Yet, here Harris is, saying that name because she has absolutely nothing left. 

The Harris campaign is out of gas. There's nothing left in the missile tubes. There are no more moves to make. 

The Harris campaign is dead; it just needs to be buried.
