Kamalamania Refuted: Workplace Chaos, Problematic Positions, Seen As A Drag to Biden

Subscribe to 3 Martini LunchSubscribe

Today, Jim and Greg discuss the long shadow behind the recent wave of Kamalamania, from reports that Vice President Kamala Harris treats her staffers terribly, to some highly questionable stances she has taken on immigration and radical Islamic terrorism, to many seeing her as a drag on Biden just a few months ago.

First, they dive into the numerous reports of her troubled vice presidency, featuring an astronomical turnover rate for staffers and a disinterest in being briefed that leads to foolish-looking public appearances. Jim is especially troubled by her disinterest in being briefed, forecasting a fraught presidency if she is elected and keeps this up.

Next, they revisit some of her dubious statements on "radical Islamic terrorism" and "illegal aliens," claiming that these terms are harmful and should be rejected, even going so far as to say that being an illegal alien is not a crime. Jim is baffled as to how someone in law enforcement could claim that illegal immigration is not a crime.

Finally, they point to statements from Democrats and media columnists just a few months ago which called for Kamala to be removed from Biden's ticket to help his odds. Jim acknowledges that the rebranding of Kamala now speaks to how enthusiastic Democrats are to have a candidate that they can be excited about as opposed to Biden.
