Chris Cuomo blasts Dems for treating Kamala like a ‘black female Jesus’

October 23, 2024 | | Print Article

NewsNation host Chris Cuomo blasted Democrats for treating Vice President Kamala Harris as the “black female Jesus” and refusing to criticize her.

The former CNN anchor ripped into the party on Tuesday’s episode of his podcast, “The Chris Cuomo Project,” reminding Harris supporters that they didn’t even like her a few months ago when President Joe Biden was at the top of the election ticket.

“Kamala Harris is not a godsend, alright?” Cuomo said before calling out the hypocrisy.

“You people didn’t even like her six months ago! Now, all of a sudden, she’s black female Jesus the way Obama was black Jesus,” he said, referring to the idolization of former President Barack Obama.

“And let me tell you something: he had a lot more going for him than Kamala Harris does — and not just as firsts go — but his type of campaigning, his type of persuasion, his charisma. He was imbued with things that she is not. And I don’t mean that as a criticism. It’s just a point of comparison,” Cuomo continued.

“And her process f—ed her also. There’s a convenience in it, but it f—ed her also because there are a lot of misgivings about her. There is an underlying feeling that she didn’t get this the right way, she may not have won a primary. She didn’t even make it to the first round of primaries when she did run, and that is both fair and unfair at the same time,” he added, noting criticisms leveled at Harris who many feel was installed as the Democratic presidential nominee when President Joe Biden was pushed off.

Cuomo ripped into the notion that Harris can’t be criticized because she is running against former President Donald Trump.

“But look, this idea of, ‘Don’t say anything bad about her because Trump,’ I don’t buy that,” he continued. “I don’t buy that, and it’s not how you get to a better place. It’s a relative assessment. She has negatives. So does he. Does he have more? Yeah. He also has a way more intense following. That’s why this race is so tight.”

“Now explain that to me. Unless you want to write off half this country as bigots, how do you explain it being so tight? Maybe you’re not as right about everything as you think you are. Maybe you should be a little bit more open to the people that you disagree with. Maybe they’re not all racists,” Cuomo said.

The liberal host, whose brother Andrew Cuomo is the former Democrat governor of New York, will be holding a town hall with Trump’s running mate, Sen. J.D. Vance that will air on NewsNation at 8 p.m. on Thursday.

The heated rant directed at Harris supporters earned Cuomo some applause on social media though many weren’t convinced that hell had frozen over yet.
