How quickly we went from” delight” and “vibes” to angry and hungry. Even risky.
Kamala Harris on Wednesday delivered notes outside the vice president’s official residence in Washington, and it was little short of awful. She made the claim in her formal capacity that her opponent is “increasingly unhinged and unstable” using an quickly discredited and quite naturally campaign-coordinated article from the previous day in The Atlantic and a New York Times interview from a frustrated former Trump administration official. She vowed that in a second term, Trump would be a “unchecked power” president, adding that his actions have shown him to be “deeply troubling and incredibly dangerous.”
Kamala came just short of declaring Trump an enemy of the state, but it wo n’t come as a surprise if she and her supporters in the national media start to advance. The entire shocking display was similar to a gambler losing$ 25, 000 in one night on his final chip. She has not a cent left to her name, and rent is due tomorrow.
It’s clear what Kamala’s campaign tried to do. It conspired with The New York Times and The Atlantic to simultaneously publish stories with microwaved slang — that Trump is Hitler, that he aspires to authoritarian positions of power, and that he harbors nothing but “disdain” for the American military and the unfortunate. The media was quick to comply with CNN’s coverage of the two articles all morning, and the White House announced that the vice president would be making prepared remarks that afternoon.
She spoke for three minutes, citing Trump’s former White House Chief of Staff John Kelly, who told the Times everything Kamala’s campaign needed him to say — that Trump is Hitler, that he aspires to authoritarian heights of power, and that he harbors nothing but “disdain” for the U. S. military and the unfortunate. Then, without asking any questions, she returned to her room.
As a reminder, Kelly has the honor of serving the longest among any of Trump’s top officials, and we think he failed to do so in decency and honor by praising the president for praising him when he was able to truly do something about it. But now, four years later, we’re expected to take him seriously.
What they have left now that Trump is not in jail and still alive is incredibly tiresome, though? A normal person would say,” Well, they could win the election”, but these are n’t normal people. They know they’re on track to lose, and they do n’t believe in elections anyway.
This is a dark campaign. It’s a desperate campaign. They’re willing to try anything, as we’ve seen. Kamala looked silly but she’s serious. And at this stage, she’s dangerous.
