Democrats knew that the candidate at the top of their ticket was not someone who would deliver political skillmanship
And those same Democrats are now shaking their heads in shame and disbelief for what just happened.
Because Kamala Harris just stumbled into the one fight she will regret for the rest of her life.
Kamala Harris alters media strategy course once again
Polls have, near unanimously, indicated that Donald Trump is holding the momentum walking into Election Day.
And Kamala Harris’ team is collapsing into crisis mode by changing their messaging and media focus on a daily basis.
The latest attempt to try and reverse course by Kamala Harris was to adopt a new strategy proposed by left-wing columnist at POLITICO, Jonathan Martin.
Martin believed the only way that Kamala stood a chance in the election was to “fake it until you make it” – the belief that she ought to pretend to actually be a moderate Republican to win over Republican voters who support Trump’s policies, but not his personality.
The real problem with this strategy is that pretending to be something you have never been is transparently offensive, and the phoniness shines bright.
That was a lesson Kamala Harris just learned, and it wasn’t without picking up some serious political bruising.
During a recent campaign event in Arizona, Harris attempted to manufacture a story about her relationship with the late Senator John McCain.
She claimed that the two had engaged in a back and forth debate, but that once the debate was over and they had cast their votes, he had pulled her aside to give her a “welcome to the NFL” pat on the back as if he was the head coach pulling someone onto the field from the practice squad.
“And then I step onto the floor of the well of the Senate later that day – we had votes – and I passed by John McCain, and he looks at me and he says, ‘Kid, come over here. You’re going to make a great Senator,’” she alleged.
“True story. True story. True story.” Harris repeated to the crowd.
“That was John McCain. That was John McCain. I was talking about him last night at a rally, right?” she rambled.
“John McCain, who – you know, we didn’t agree on everything, but, man, I mean, what about an incredible American hero?” Harris added. “Again, strength – strength – right? – we know what the former President said about John McCain; I’m not going to repeat it here – but strength.”
Kamala Harris’ attempt to reach to Republicans completely falls apart
Senator John McCain’s daughter Meghan is a Never-Trumper to the bone.
But that doesn’t mean that she all of a sudden became a Democrat, or is even willing to support Harris for President.
Meghan McCain immediately took to social media where she shared that her father actually had a very low opinion of Kamala Harris, threatening to go public with his actual thoughts on Kamala had she and the Democrats continued to attempt to rewrite history.
“Now, I know Democrats want to reinvent history and turn my Dad into any illusion you guys need him to be depending on the political moment you need to bastardize his memory for,” Meghan posted. “But please don’t make me start sharing what I remember him ACTUALLY saying about Kamala Harris…”

“And consider this my final warning shot,” she warned. “I will start spilling tea.”
And consider this my final warning shot, I will start spilling tea.

Whenever Kamala Harris attempts and fails to shift her messaging or strategy, it almost always backfires because she lacks the most basic of political skills necessary to pull it off.
