Don't Be Surprised If Kamala Shoots Ahead in the Polls

I haven’t seen this much fawning love from the elites and the media since Barack Obama ran for president.  Kamala didn’t get one single vote, yet she is the Democrat party’s presidential candidate.  It reminds me of a quote from William Shakespeare: “Not all the water in the world can wash the balm off an anointed royal.”

Of course, the honeymoon vice president Harris is enjoying might be from the joyous relief many (including me) feel that Joe Biden has withdrawn from the race.  Even though I always believed that Donald Trump would win this fall when he was running against Biden, there was still the possibility that Biden might win.  I think I would have had to consider committing seppuku with a Japanese short sword, pulling my guts out, and watching myself slowly bleed to death if Biden had gotten four more years.

Another reason Harris is so beloved by elites and the press is her hard/extreme left positions — although she will probably soften her tone and point of view for the general election.


In addition, the press and the elites probably believe they can pressure and manipulate Harris into doing their bidding — which increases their power — just as they have done to all the presidents, save one, for the last half-century.  Most presidents, save one, have quaked in fear of the massive media might of the press.  Pressure tactics never worked with Trump.  That’s why they hate him so.
