Parody of a presidential candidate

Op-ed views and opinions expressed are solely those of the author.

If a Hollywood producer wanted to do a parody of the national election process, he could find no better role model than Kamala Harris. With her word salads and incessant cackling, the Democrat Party’s nominee for president has been a public fool for three years. “In a functioning meritocracy,” said Tucker Carlson, “Kamala Harris would be a C-list massage therapist working out of a strip mall. Yet somehow she became our vice president. How’d that happen?” 

“Kamala Harris cannot do much of anything but inappropriately laugh uproariously,” wrote Patricia McCarthy at American Thinker. “She would not or could not be elected as dogcatcher in any small town. She has no business being anywhere near a federal government job, let alone vice-president or, God help us, president.”

Harris continually says things that are “totally ridiculous,” said Sky News’ James Morrow. “Why does she always laugh like a stoner kid who has just discovered old YouTube of Cheech and Chong?” Comedian Adam Hunter agreed. “Every time she laughs,” Hunter said, “Trump wants to shoot himself in the ear.”

“I genuinely think the woman is an idiot,” said British journalist Julia Hartley-Brewer. “She’s been a terrible vice president. How she behaved when she was attorney general, apparently requiring the entire staff to stand up when she walked into the room and say good morning general. The mad hysterical laughing at everything, the word salad, the absolute zero achievement on anything.”

Harris has been about as popular with the American public as venereal disease, said Josh Hammer at Townhall. An NBC News poll last June found her to be the single least popular vice president in American history—only 32% of Americans had a positive view of her. “As recently as a month or two ago,” said Hammer, “Democratic elites were openly discussing whether she could still be dropped as Biden’s 2024 running mate.”

Can we envision a public fool as the 47th president of the United States? “This woman would be in charge of the most powerful nuclear arsenal on earth,” said Douglas Murray. “The image of her cackling manically while saying nonsense, with her finger on the nuclear button, is just too much.” Or perhaps not. The tide has turned completely since Harris became the nominee. “We’ve had a desperate attempt by the Democrats to completely reinvent this woman,” said Sebastian Gorka, “and then detach her from the last three and a half years of her being the vice president.”

“The media is going to continue to push out fluff stories about her,” said Tulsi Gabbard. “They are not going to seriously and honestly examine her record, they’re gonna treat her with kid gloves, and they’re going to create this new false narrative about who Kamala Harris is and to try to reshape her record.”

When Harris began serving as vice president, CNN said this: “Exasperation and dysfunction: inside Kamala Harris’ frustrating start as vice president.” Today CNN thinks she is the reincarnation of Lincoln. “Some of the media’s largest players are proving their newfound devotion to Harris by attempting to rewrite her past—and some of their own coverage,” Ingrid Jacques reported in USA Today.

The extent of the media’s glorification of Harris can’t be overstated. After watching Harris’ acceptance speech at the DNC, MSNBC’s Chris Hayes was ecstatic because “she looked like the president of the United States.” Harris did everything right, Hayes said, the image of perfection.

Many viewers had a very different reaction to Harris’ speech. As I listened to the avalanche of lies and the sickening diatribe about her mother, I thought, “She thinks she is running for Junior High-class president, not for president of the United States.” What she conveniently left out was her Marxist platform: how she intends to destroy the country with price controls, war on fossil fuels, a 25 percent tax on unrealized gains, higher corporate tax rates, and a forever open border. In other words—a whole lot of sizzle, absolutely no steak.

Will the media get away with reinventing Harris? “Even after all the fawning coverage of Harris and negative coverage of President Trump,” reported the Media Research Center, “we find this race fundamentally tied.” That was before RFK Jr. endorsed Trump and before any debates took place.

“Perhaps there is a limit to how much deluded leftist economic idiocy even the legacy media can tolerate,” said Jordan Peterson. “America is not going to elect this nimrod as its first female president,” said Megan Kelly. “I trust in them too much for that. They’re not that dumb.” Are you sure, Megan?
