California Sen. Kamala Harris should never have run for president in the first place. Her ambition far exceeded her ability.
She hadn’t yet established herself in the U.S. Senate. And she hadn’t exactly excelled in her previous job as California’s attorney general. There wasn’t much of a record worth bragging about on the campaign trail.
After being elected to the Senate in a 2016 cakewalk, she should have spent the next three years focused exclusively on representing Californians in Congress, helping the state on such vital issues as water development, environmental protection, healthcare and homelessness.
But people around her — political advisors and her sister Maya Harris

These wannabees who have no chance do it for the money. Nobody ever checks where campaign donations go.

Not to mention both her parents weren't American citizens when she was born.

More qualified than Obama. (Not exactly a ringing endorsement)

You don't run on qualifications and good ideas. There's a list. You check off which attributes pertain to you. A half black woman. Wow, those are biggies. Two victim cards right off the bat. If she had only been gay or transgendered. Better luck next time. Or not.

The L.A. Times should have written this right after Harris "cake-walked" herself into the Senate.
Actually, I'm glad that Harris ran. She did some damage that needed doing.

Even the Dems are critical of her experience level.

How many have dropped out before one vote being cast? Talk about pretenders. Kamela Harris certainly was a pretender, but there are others that still need to go as well. For many of them, their run for President is just a ploy to line their pockets. Have to wonder how much donations are down considering they have three billionaires running on their own rather than donating to anyone. Also have to wonder if donations have dried up because they see how well Trump is doing. Also no Epstein to mooch off of.

Harris did not get to where she is by thinking on her feet.

This is what happens when you start believing the hype. The media portrayed her as a rising star and possible future president. And she believed them.

Frankly none of these midgets have any “ability” to speak of. But there are things like character, leadership, courage, charisma. No matter how much you extrapolate zero, result is the same.

Wait, are they saying that Willie Brown's mistress, his little sexual play toy, wasn't qualified? That's racist!

FTA:Harris excelled in California politics because she’s part of a home state Democratic cabal, an insiders’ machine. But that machine doesn’t work outside California.
There's no Willie Brown to help her up the ladder in places like Iowa and New Hampshire. Plus, most of the country doesn't want California politics infecting their own jurisdictions.

"California Sen. Kamala Harris should never have run for president in the first place. Her ambition far exceeded her ability. She hadn’t yet established herself in the U.S. Senate. And she hadn’t exactly excelled in her previous job....
None of that slowed down 0bama's rise to the top. She figured that her partially melaninistic epidermis would work the same magic for her.
She figured that her 'lady parts' would give her an extra boost.... which she would need....Because she is even less of a "Natural Born Citizen, than 0bama is.

None of the Democrat candidates should have ever run for president. None of them are qualified to run their own lives, much less a country.

There were NO serious candidates on The Clown Bus.
Still no serious candidates on the Dem side.
Idiots, losers and fools, all of them.

Poor Kamel Harris, she thought her knee pads and her rude 'interrogation' style would make her look sufficiently 'professional'! It did, but not the way she thought....back to the knee pads and let's see what else she might 'accomplish' with them!

Not to mention, this incredibly nasty piece of work showed the world who she was during the Kavanaugh hearings - dripping with arrogance and condescension, showboating for the cameras, trying to come across as the big tough prosecutor.
Kamala Harris as Commander-In-Chief? What a joke.

The same deficiency applies to Lizzy, Bernie, Biden, Bloomberg, Buttplug, O'Rourke, etc. etc. Tulsi is the only one remotely qualified if she had not contracted the liberal disease somewhere along the way. Brain-eating organisms are a non-starter.

Harris tried doing what Obama did. He had little experience in the US Senate when he ran for POTUS. And he'd only been an Illinois State Representative and State Senator -- who often just voted PRESENT! Obama's ambition far exceeded his ability too. So why pick on Harris??? I don't like her. But why not treat her the same way the media treated the candidate for POTUS with the Styrofoam Greek columns on the stage???

She doesn't really want to be a Senator so I'm wondering what she is going to do next.

"None of the Democrat candidates should have ever run for president. None of them are qualified to run their own lives, much less a country."
That right there is the start of a brilliant commercial. The music track would be the refrain from "Sunshine Go Away Today".
