E-Mails from Kamala

 

As I’ve shared with y’all before here, the Democrats seem to think that I’m one of them, I still reside in New Mexico, and my name is Shawn. Not Kamala Harris, though! This highly astute presidential candidate knows my name and knows I live in Texas.

It started on December 11 of last year. Kamala emailed me the shocking news (“This is shocking news. . .”) about possible voting irregularities in a North Carolina US House race. She then asked me to donate to the Democrat candidate. I was about to reply that there had been similar irregularities in several House races in a state where a certain US Senator used to be Attorney General, but I held off. I saved the message to a folder called “KH.” Over the next month, I got about an email a week from Kamala telling me all about the exciting things she was doing in the Senate.

Then on January 21, Kamala announced that she was running for president. What a surprise! I received messages both from her and someone named Juan Rodriguez telling me how much they were looking forward to running my life. Of course, they needed my help. Almost every subsequent email ended like a Spın̈al Tap song:

You know what I want,
You know what I need,
Or maybe you don’t.
Do I have to come right flat out and tell you everything?
Gimme some money!

That started a stream of emails: Kamala’s running for president! (Gimme some money!) The campaign raised $1.5 million! (Gimme some money!) Did you see Trump’s tweet? (Gimme some money!) Host a debate watch party! (Gimme some money!) Kamala did great at the debate! (Gimme some money!) Our fundraising numbers are down for this month! (Gimme some money!) Other candidates have more money than we do!! (Gimme some money!)

Wait, what was that? You’re admitting you’re doing poorly and want me to prop you up? I’m not going to send money to Kamala in any case, but I don’t think that strategy will entice the average Democrat voter to fork over cash.

The stream has since become a firehose. I now get as many as five emails a day. (Gimme some money!) Not only from Kamala and Juan, but from Jenn Liu (Gimme some money!), Lily Adams (Gimme some money!), Kamala’s sister (Hi, it’s Maya! Gimme some money!), and Kamala’s Ken-doll Doug (Gimme some money!) Oddly enough, Doug’s full name is never mentioned. I’m sure the fact his last name is not Harris has nothing to do with it.

Kamala also enjoys jumping in front of the latest parade. Sign the Green New Deal petition! (Gimme some money!) I’ll issue an executive order banning assault weapons! (Gimme some money!) A story in the New York Times proves Brett Kavanaugh lied and needs to be impeached! (Gimme some money!)

In September, I actually got a message not asking for money. Click here for a free sticker! So I did. Still no come on. I entered my nom de plume and address, clicked the button and Gimme some money! Yea, right, free. I just closed the window.

Then, last week, I got this in the mail:

Wow, free actually meant free. Oh, let me give you some perspective on the size of this:

I think we know why Kamala’s campaign is circling the drain. Her supporters are being taken out, rear-ended by people trying to read the bumper sticker. That, and the fact that Kamala is an awful candidate.

Interestingly, since I ordered my “free” sticker, I’ve made all sorts of new email friends. The Democratic Governor’s Association. (Gimme some money!) The Democratic Action Committee. (Gimme some money!) John Bel Edwards. (Gimme some money!) MJ Hegar. (Gimme some money!) And, I’m honored to say, former vice president Joe Biden. (Gimme some money!) Look, here’s a message from him just a couple of days ago:

What’s that, Joe, you want me to contribute 1/200,000th of your private airplane bill? I think I’ll pass.

    In comparison, it sounds like the Dems are much worse. More like this one company I bought shirts from once. I get at least an e-mail per day from them.

    So that’s why we haven’t had a Kamala sticker sighting in the group, the stickers might be out but aren’t noticed. “Top-tier” candidate Harris is quickly moving into fringe territory. Her campaign sent a tweet wishing the “future president” a happy birthday. There were plenty of people to remind her how well that went for the last candidate who sent a similar birthday greeting.

    The failed candidates get to keep the money. I imagine that’s why a bunch of them are running.

    Raised past 6 months… Apr 1, 2019 to Sep 30, 2019 (in millions)

    Sanders      43

    Warren       43

    Buttigieg   44

    Harris         23

    Yang            13

    Booker        10

    Klobuchar   9

    O’Rourke     8

    That is why they run.  And that is why they keep running until it becomes screamingly obvious they’re not contenders for the slot, or a job in the future administration of the then-leading candidate.

    If you can run for a public office, raise funds, and pay your spouse an enormous salary out of those funds for “consulting”, you are literally paying yourself to run for a public office.

    Or, you create “institutions” and pay your step-children $100K/year to run them, even if they’re chowderheads.

    Or, while you’re in office, you can use your position to help secure loans for failing enterprises your spouse is head of, and became head of only because of you, and is now financially wrecked because of you and your wife, who you gave free money to, essentially, because you’re a Senator, and banks like Senators.

    In addition to the life enhancing ways that gobs and gobs of campaign contributions will improve  your life, you cannot be indicted for most crimes that are civil matters if you are running for office. And if the Dems won’t have you, and the Republicans won’t either, there are loads of other political parties in existence.

    There are currently 904 candidates for President who have filed. A few have since dropped out.

    I am outraged that none of these eminent candidates have qualified for the debates:

    • Augustus Sol Invictus
    • Bepis Cola
    • Chocolate Pancakes
    • Cocaine
    • Dum Ugly
    • Hugh Lord Mungus
    • Internet Beef
    • Jo 753
    • Leomard Sportsinterviews
    • Refino Pig

    • Vermin Supreme

    Yep. It’s the press trying to keep the best candidates down.
