Kamala Harris is a racist. There, I said it.
Now I wouldn’t personally say that I believe the Vice President actually is a racist. She is without doubt a moron, which is sadly reinforced every time she speaks publicly. One cringe-inducing speech is a bad day. Two is bad staff work. Three speeches, and you’re running out of places or people with which to blame. We are well into double digits now for Ms. Harris, which rules out even research and development for a ‘Veep’ sitcom relaunch. Sometimes, the most obvious conclusion is the accurate one. She’s just not very bright.
Harris is getting a jump on April Fool’s Day festivities by spending a week in Africa. The trip has been overshadowed by the horrific school shooting in Nashville, and a staggering level of incompetence shown in House and Senate hearings by Biden cabinet officials, with Attorney General Merrick Garland, Interior Secretary Deb Haaland, and Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas taking top marks.
So why did she go to Africa for a week? Here’s Kamala herself explaining why and how she’s preparing last weekend before boarding the plane and extending her own personal contribution to the advancement of global warming.
Oh, we know she has always thought about the future. All those nights with former California Assembly Speaker Willie Brown were spent thinking about the future – her future. Her run for California Attorney General was thinking about her political future. Her Senate run was not because she wanted to make a difference legislatively for Californians. It was a stepping stone to the presidency. Except she tripped before the Iowa Caucus in 2020. Yet her eyes have never wavered from looking forward – not for the benefit of humanity, mind you, but due to her own blind ambition for power. That’s why she jumped at the chance to be second fiddle to a fading octogenarian.
The first leg of her trip is in Ghana. Now I have nothing bad to say about Ghanaians. I’m sure they’re fine people. I know people who have family members that do missionary work in Ghana. I certainly apologize to the Ghanaian people on behalf of all Americans for the Harris show that has interfered with their lives this week.
Ghana is way up north and west on a map of Africa, located on the Gulf of Guinea. If Ghana were a U.S. state, it would be comparable to Oregon in size, except a little smaller. It’s ranked around 10th out of the 54 African countries in GDP. Like very other country in the world, they have their own unique concerns and cultures. That part seems lost on the Vice President. The second she landed, every public address that recorded her captured her talking not about Ghanaian concerns and how they can best partner with the U.S., but how Ghana was Africa. They all look the same to her. All Africans are alike.
The average Ghanaian doesn’t care about the rest of the continent. Their problems are a little more localized than that.
Here’s how tone deaf this is. Imagine if French President Emanuel Macron were to go to Mexico City and give a speech about the future of North America, never mentioning Mexico at all, but lumping everything in his vision for the future as regarding our continent. Number one, would anyone pay attention to that speech, even in Mexico? Of course, not. It would be deemed silly. If you’re going to embark on a North American tour to discuss the future of North America, you’d think one would have to spend a little time in Canada and the U.S. as well. And as long as you’re in Mexico, you might want to cater the speech a tad to discuss the concerns of Mexico. Harris doesn’t do this, because she is powerless to read a room. She has talking points wrapped up in Zoltan-dispensed philosophy and a cackle that can cause airline traffic to veer off-course.
She assumes that Ghanaians have the same goals and ambitions as all of their other African neighbors, a premise that’s never been the case in broader Africa. Warring tribes and factions, sometimes between countries and other times within countries, have gone on since mankind walked the continent. Here’s another Africa outreach moment from the Vice President.
Ghana is just a smidge over 3,000 miles away from South Africa. If one were to fly there, damaging the climate in the process, it would take just under six hours. Ghanaians are probably more likely to wonder how they’re going to keep from getting carjacked at night, or how to avoid terrorist attacks near the border with Burkina Faso than they are about a telescope in South Africa. And Isaac Newton figured out the whole gravity thing almost 400 years ago. A telescope isn’t going to tell us anything Ghana doesn’t know. Ghana cares as much about South African scientific advancements as we do about seismology advances in Chile.
If a musician were to stop in Los Angeles as part of a North American tour and during a pause between songs tell a story about how great Boston was, they’d be booed. And it’s happened more than once when an artist gets out there on stage and because the tour is such a blur forgets what city they’re in and says, “Hello Houston” while they’re actually in Albuquerque. The results are never pretty. Yet Kamala Harris has spent the first leg of her trip not speaking to Ghanaians about Ghanaian issues, but grand visions about how the future of Africa will be of one people with a common, shared interest. If Mike Pence were to have visited Ghana and cited South Africa as an example of all Africans, the left, through their legacy media organ, would have branded Pence a racist.
Then, there’s the gobbledygook Pez dispenser philosophy that is part of any Kamala Harris speech.
Or this.
Fortunately, most Ghanaians speak English, although they’re probably still looking for a translator to explain what it is that Harris is talking about. I can’t help them, either. She’s made no sense for decades.
Then, there’s my highlight of Harris’ trip thus far.
She’s so proud of Ghana for discovering music and how rhythmic it is and that you can actually move to it. It’s not new, she says, but it’s significant. We sent our Vice President to Ghana to Veepsplain the cultural importance of African music to Africans, something that has been self-evident to the world for millennia.
Tanzania and Zambia are next up on Harris’ Africa junket. Hilarity will undoubtedly ensue. Meanwhile, she leaves behind Ghana with an growing Islamist terror threat on its western border, and the specter of Russia’s Wagner mercenaries once they’re done with their Ukrainian vacation. So why the trip in the first place?
Harris gave her standard non-answer answer, partly because I’m sure she really has no idea about why she’s going, and also because she’s physically incapable of articulating the why even if she did know in the first place. But I do know why. It’s called the Belt and Road Initiative.
The Communist Chinese Party has got a plan, and they’re actively implementing it, to become the world’s true superpower. They are making inroads, literally and figuratively, in places like Ghana, Tanzania, and Zambia, because those countries have natural resources and rare earth minerals in which China is trying to corner the market. And they’re succeeding thus far, either through bribery or extortion, or both. The answer to expansionist China, of course, is for the leader of the free world, the United States, to offer an alternative futuristic vision and opportunity for partnership. Hence, the Harris trip.
In other words, we’re doomed.
