    Isn't she universally unpopular? Not really surprising the opposition party denigrates her. Both sides tend to do that to their opposition.

    * I don't have strong feelings about her. I don't really get her massive unpopularity. It's a big bag of meh to me.

    Her unpopularity is due to an onslaught of right wing media telling people over and over that she’s the devil while never giving specifics. If you press someone like I’ve done before here over and over they have to admit they don’t really know why the don’t like her they just don’t.

    This is nothing new and they’ve been doing this since McCarthy and then put in steroids when Newt/FoxNews came into power.

    Her own party doesnt like her. The President (allegedly) doesnt like her. The voters dont like her as she was the first big name to drop out due to lack of funding. Her workers dont like her.

    People defending Harris remind me of the conservatives who defended Palin.

    parroting convenient / baseless claims being spin by right wing media

    if only you can formulate your own opinion backed up by specifics​

    another perspective, perhaps she dropped out cos Biden camp had made overtures to her, thru intermediaries, about being his VP
    false equivalency,

    Harris knows where Russia is and that there is a North Korea awa a South Korea.
    the ultimate quitter, Palin, doesn't​

    She suspended her campaign 10 months before the election, long before Biden was even the front runner.

    https://www.cnbc.com/2019/12/03/kamala-harris-drops-out-of-2020-presidential-race.html

    If a candidate drops out for the long shot of become VP (which is a completely idiotic and loser mentality suggestion), one certainly wouldn't claim lack of fundraising. They would come up with some lame ass excuse like 'family and quality of life blah blah blah'. This is a complete Harden/Durant narrative. Winners do not concede before the race even begins. Just dumb. This idea alone just illustrates she is a loser.

    All you do is repaint the narrative. You have 0 cred.

    What an amazing post. Sounds just like every liberal in the D&D using left wing media/twitter to add “context” to their baseless claims! Genius!

    Wow... comparing Kamala Harris and sarah palin.

    Lets see, one graduated from Howards University with degrees in political science and economics and University of California Hastings School of Law with her law degree. The other bounced around from colleges and junior colleges before graduating with a journalism degree at University of Idaho.

    One successfully ran for DA of San Francisico, State Attorney General of California, and United States Senator (California) before becoming Vice President (the highest elected office as a woman and as an Asian American). The other was elected to the city council and then mayor of Wasilia (AK). After losing in a campaign to be lt. governor of Alaska she successfully ran for governor, a position she resigned after a controversy. She was basically a national unknown when selected to run as VP under McCain. They were beaten. She later had a reality TV show.

    Besides both being women, how else are the two of them comparable?

    That doesn't explain her unpopularity amongst Democrats and Independents.

    I never called her any of that. I think she's an idiot. Same as I thought Palin was an idiot. Her race is irrelevant

    You could always not reply. I destroyed you last time and you ran away. I'm not here to entertain you. You're the clown. That's your job.

    I think she's an idiot. Her race is irrelevant. Just like I thought Palin was an idiot. Apparently the vast majority of the public shares my sentiments

    I think the comparison was between idiot supporters: "People defending Harris remind me of the conservatives who defended Palin."
    they both have idiot supporters

    I don't know much about what Harris has said and done while VP since almost VPs do very little. What has she done that makes you believe she is an idiot like palin?

    Um, She is not in the same UNIVERSE as Palin. Palin was an unqualified dumbass. Harris is FAR from that. You may not like her, but qualifications is not an issue.

    Would be nice if she could handle things but wasn’t she suppose to at least be in charge of the border crisis? I know some dems and definitely the progressive elites value the open border concept because they feel it adds voters and extrapolation numbers by birth. Never mind the negative consequences of course.
    https://www.hbo.com/movies/adrienne <~~~ killed by illegal alien, #doesProgressiveHollywoodCare?
    Unfortunately the family including the husband being tight left wing political idealists apparently doesn’t, and said something to the effect of his wife’s killer “wasn’t a illegal alien per se but simply an undocumented immigrant” afraid of being turned in to authorities during the act of a crime and decided it was best to kill to cover things up…I’m sorry but if anyone killed a family member that wasn’t suppose to be here I would not be so concerned with the distinctions of “undocumented immigrant” vs “illegal alien” as a response.

    If we don’t have some kind of border control than this is the apparent byproduct…you let some good in and you certainly let some bad in.
    If a innocent American life is worth protecting shouldn’t we at least have necessary border control to help ensure that the risk is minimized? I’m sure not every legal immigrant will be a saint just as not every legal citizen is and murders happen across the board, but think about this. ..His purported motive to go beyond robbery to outright vicious murder at the drop of a hat once he was exposed by Adrienne during the crime was because he was illegal or undocumented, call it what you will…he simply didn’t want to be reported supposedly

    Perhaps if he followed the rules and got the documentation maybe just maybe it would be robbery and no murder. We may never know…but what we do know is that we should have a process and not a process of anyone and anybody can come in no questions asked, no documentation needed…that doesn’t work. It’s laughable to think otherwise ( I’m the son of someone who immigrated legally btw )

    Kamala simply laughs and does nothing. Meanwhile a young girl can only wish her mother could share a laugh. That is forever separation. The killer as I understand it did not receive a heavy sentence compared to say a truck driver and is set to be released at the relatively young age of 44 and subsequently extradition…But then again maybe he will return. Shouldn’t we know?
