Kamala’s Worst Nightmare Is Coming True

The good news for Kamala Harris is that there are only 88 days left until November 5th… and even fewer days before early voting begins across the country. But the bad news for Kamala Harris is that there are still 88 days until November 5th, and the most vacuous presidential candidate in American history must find a way to hang on until then.

Harris knows – or at least her handlers know – that she isn’t the sharpest knife in the drawer. That is why they have limited her appearances since President Biden bowed out and his underperforming understudy became the presumptive Democratic nominee. Just like they did in 2020 when they hid Geritol Joe in his basement bunker while using Covid as an excuse, the party elite plans to keep Cackling Kamala under wraps as much as possible.

So far, her appearances have been carefully scripted campaign rallies with the aid of an ever-present teleprompter. No press conferences and no one-on-one interviews with reporters who may ask her some in-depth policy questions (one can only hope).

Between now and the Democratic National Convention, Harris will continue to speak in vague and generic terms filled with nonsensical sound bites such as “we’re not going back” and “when we fight, we win.” In fact, her canned stump speech is simply an endless repetition of the word “future”.

Even her campaign website is devoid of a single policy platform. There is a bio of Harris, a bio of Tim Walz, and a bunch of donate tabs. And yes, if you want to buy 20 Harris for President t-shirts like Rosie O’Donnell did, wearing a different one every day, there is an online campaign store.

The only problem with that type of strategy is that eventually, she will have to debate Donald Trump and defend not only the manifold failures of the Biden-Harris administration, but also her dereliction of duty as the border czar. Harris will also have to explain why she picked one of the few officeholders in America as radically Progressive as her to be her running mate, passing over the pro-Israel Josh Shapiro and Mark Kelly, a former astronaut and decorated war veteran.

The “inside baseball” scoop is that Harris was threatened by Shapiro’s speechmaking eloquence and intimidated by his political ambitions. As for Kelly, she reportedly found him stiff and “uninspiring”… as if commanding two space shuttle flights and piloting two others after earning 19 combat medals as a naval aviator is “boring”.

All that being said, Kamala’s worst nightmare looms on the horizon... and she is woefully ill-equipped to deal with it. That’s right, I am referring to the increasingly volatile stock market, which crashed and burned this week because of a dismal jobs report. Global markets also tanked due to signs of a slowing U.S. economy and some financial analysts are predicting a recession before Election Day.

We all know that education – “I just love yellow school buses and Venn diagrams” – isn’t exactly Harris’s strong suit. Neither is foreign policy, where her vapid description of the war in Ukraine sounded like a third grader giving a book report.

"So, Ukraine is a country in Europe," Harris said during a phone-in radio call. "It exists next to another country called Russia. Russia is a bigger country. Russia is a powerful country. Russia decided to invade a smaller country called Ukraine. So, basically, that's wrong."

Is your head throbbing as much as mine after reading that excerpt from Geography for Dummies?

However, Harris is even less well-versed on the economy and that could prove to be her campaign’s undoing and her Achilles heel. After all, people tend to vote their pocketbooks. Just ask James "It's the economy, stupid" Carville, who masterminded Bill Clinton's successful campaign in 1992.

That is why the DNC is doing anything and everything in its power to keep Harris away from a live mic, a live reporter, and a live press conference. Simply put, she sounds like Joe Biden without the mumbling. Just replace his persistent cough with her insipid laugh and you have the same Democratic Party stooge.

Now that the economy is on the brink of a protracted tailspin, Harris will be forced to tell voters how she intends to fix it. Meanwhile, nervous investors, seniors on a fixed income, and families struggling to make ends meet may start swinging Donald Trump’s way, leaving Kamala to wake up every morning between now and November 5th in a cold sweat.
