Modern journalism has transformed into an elaborate stage play, especially when it comes to covering the not-so-dreamy Democrats, and Kamala Harris is the leading lady in this laughable production. As she stumbles her way through her presidential campaign, she raises the bar for poor candidates, making even her predecessor look like a political genius. It’s hard not to notice how Harris expertly embodies the constant chaos and confusion plaguing the Democratic Party—a party still reeling from the internal upheaval that led to the ousting of the last competent candidate.
As the immigration crisis continues to dominate voter concerns, Harris finds herself in a sticky spot. Her latest performances have been akin to that cringeworthy relative who shows up to family gatherings after a few too many, and you can’t help but watch in a mix of horror and amusement. One can only imagine the facepalms happening backstage after she takes the microphone, delivering incoherent tangents so far removed from sensible policy that even the most hardened Democrat might question their support.

Take, for instance, her recent mock town hall with Anderson Cooper, which felt more scripted than a reality TV drama’s finale. Instead of addressing the nation with confidence, Harris bounced around the issue of the border wall like a pinball machine, aptly revealing her inability to directly assert a stance. She went on yet another meandering explanation filled with more ‘ums’ and ‘uhs’ than actual policy; it’s almost as if she was trying to win over a crowd of cats rather than provide viable solutions to America’s immigration issues.
A standout moment came during her appearance on Telemundo, where she had an actual two-day prep session to brush up on her talking points. Despite all that practice, her attempt at articulating her stance on immigration was a masterclass in vague platitudes, reminiscent of a sleepy Joe Biden between his naps. Under the strain of expectations, Harris leaned heavily on catchphrases, delivering utterances so muddled it left viewers cringing—anyone hoping for clarity ultimately left disappointed and scratching their heads.
It’s quite simple—the Democrats have found themselves in quite the quandary. With Harris as their candidate, they might as well roll out the red carpet for the next opponent because it looks increasingly like she’s set to redefine the term “political disaster.” If the Democrats were hoping for a competitive election season, they might want to rethink their strategy because Kamala Harris is performing like a star in a sinking ship, claiming the title of the worst candidate since that other guy with the rapidly fading memory. If there was an award for the most spectacular political flop, it’s safe to say Harris would take home the trophy, complete with matching cartoonish applause.
