Even Snakes Shed Their Skin
The democrats are falling all over themselves to find the reason (person to blame) for losing the presidential election. Some say it’s the message; others say it’s the messenger and still others say it’s Trump’s MAGA supporters. One democratic congressman even said that Kamala Harris was a good candidate, but because she was a woman and not white – that is why she lost.
Let me take this back to the beginning with the 2020 campaign season when during the DNC presidential debates for the nomination the very last people seen trashing each other turned out to be Obama’s “Biden-Harris Dream Team”.
During and after the inauguration the Biden-Harris political honeymoon began. Harris said it was the “agreement” they had made with each other, she would be in the room for every major presidential decision.
Does that even sound like a workable plan?
Throughout the past 4 years it’s never been called the Biden Administration. It has been presented as the Biden-Harris Administration. It’s like putting training wheels or stabilizing handles on a Biden walker. But when you ask about Biden’s appointed “Border Czar” VP Harris denies that it is her.
Up until being forced out of his bid for reelection Biden and Harris were almost constantly together publicly and everyone assured us that Biden was on his “A” game.
Kamala Harris was designated as Biden’s democratic successor to the throne and all she had to do was beat Trump. She might have been considered a serious contender if she had put forth the effort to reassure the American people that she knew what their concerns were and actually had a plan to fix what she and Joe Biden had broken, but she couldn’t even do that.
Kamala thought of herself as a rock star yet her actions were that of a rock. She did not even pretend to know what was going on across our nation with immigration, national security or on the world stage. While on an official visit to South Korea, she declared that she was happy to be in North Korea.
Mike Drop Moment!
On the campaign trail she gave little effort to her duties as vice president or to the campaign. She raised an ungodly amount of money for her campaign and spent even more than she brought in on famous celebrities, concert props, smoke and mirrors and ended up spending a week in seclusion after her monumental loss to Trump.
Here we are 3 weeks after her election loss and as Rome burns (Israel – Hamas, Ukraine – Russia) Kamala is on “vacation” in Hawaii and it appears that nobody is running the White House or maybe the nation is on autopilot?
Here is my suggestion to the Democratic Party – ditch the old guard (they’re really old and not that good anymore), talk to voters about what’s important to them now, develop a strategy for addressing those needs and let voters hear from some of the brightest minds in the Democratic Party.
Don’t ASSUME that you have all the answers. You Don’t!
Get the Democratic Party back on track as the party of the people, not the workers unions or the upper crust in American society and stop taking Americans for granted.
Think outside the box!
What is good for American – security, prosperity, safety and drop the resistance nonsense. Find a way to bring Americans together instead of dividing along racial, social, political or gender lines.
