Caught on Camera: Current Kamala Claptrap Is Still Craptastic

Say that five times fast - I dare you.

HAH!

It's been less than two weeks since our sad sack o' carbon president-in-name-only stepped gracefully out of his reelection race and the coronation effort of Kamala Harris as successor began in earnest. In the ensuing days, even as Barack Obama was forced to nod his head in her direction, trapped as he was by POTATUS endorsing her during his exit, Democrats have done their damnedest to begin an immediate and complete remake of a thoroughly vapid, self-absorbed, and unlikable woman.

What's involved in such an undertaking is pretty complex, though, and it does help when you have a supine press in your corner. These contingency-compliant party toadies are more than willing to "correct" once-accurate reporting to reflect the new narrative or simply erase it altogether in a collective effort to burnish Harris's lackluster resume and faux-pas-filled files. Case in point?

Border czar?

POOF!!

From not one, but at least 3 "sources" I am aware of and documented. God knows how many more, as tons have already attempted to parse the original verbiage itself.

Party elders are moving rapidly to coalesce around their anointed one in order to lock down the nomination. It's a scramble to keep a handle on what was already a chaotic and messy political coup that played out in front of God and everybody (Don't forget they're all still sweating DNC visuals later this month - promising to be spicy af).

Harris officially has no opponents for the Democratic nomination after key deadline passes

Vice President Kamala Harris is officially the only candidate seeking the Democratic presidential nomination after a key deadline passed Tuesday evening with no one else qualifying.

According to the Democratic National Committee, 99% of delegates signed Harris' nominating petition.

With no internal competition, Democrats will avoid the messy fight that some party officials feared when President Joe Biden stepped aside in the race less than two weeks ago.

Our Party has met this unprecedented moment with a transparent, democratic, and orderly process to unite behind a nominee with a proven record who will lead us in the fight ahead,” DNC Chairman Jaime Harrison said in a statement Tuesday night.

In the ways of the Democratic Party, if they (and their print and media minions) say, well-nigh demand, it was "transparent, democratic, and orderly" often enough, that makes it so. One dares not quibble or is instantly condemned as fascist, racist, transphobic, a right-wing extremist, an existential threat to democracy, and "weird."

That's how the game is played.

The more difficult task is erasing the previous version of the candidate herself. Trying to unburden the new Kamala from the burdened version who would normally be fading with the passage of time. You know. Like, a couple of months ago.

The thing is, it's a Whack-a-Mole game of Kamala word salad videos for campaign, press, and Democratic power brokers. They don't control information with near the iron grip they did during the 2020 election or even the 2022 mid-term races. Elon's X has blown the information constriction wide open.

There are daffy, infuriating, and totally illuminating Kamala video moles popping up out of memory holes everywhere you turn. They couldn't begin to whap them at the rate they need to.

There's angry 'you can't have Christmas if illegals can't' Kamala.

What was that all about? Lighten up, sister.

WHAP WHAP WHAP

A 'guns kill - giggle, snort, cackle' Kamala.

WHAP WHAP WHAP

The 'work we've begun will have to become ongoing' Kamala.

There aren't enough clubs to whap them all. And where would they even start?

Do they begin with ones showcasing her own peculiar brand of vacuousness? Perhaps rid themselves of snippets highlighting her complete lack of gravitas as she inexplicably and inappropriately cackles and snorts her way through moments in public. Perhaps the ones that give the lie to her current, suddenly more moderate positions should be dealt with before any others.

How to choose, what to choose.

It's a downright Mission Impossible. 

So, the current strategy to avoid any further unfortunate salad episodes in order to slide safely unscathed into the Chicago DNC in the next two weeks has been to isolate Harris. Turn her into Binder Babe. Basically a modified Biden Basement campaign plan. 

When she is forced to interact with the press, she reads and leaves. She is tightly scripted, tightly scheduled.

And that's that.

Aw, but you can't keep a good word salad bar girl down.

She had a tiny slip-up to tease us with during her eulogy for Sheila Jackson-Lee...

...but then?

Last night Kamala and POTATUS met three of the released hostages during their homecoming at Joint Base Andrews. 

President Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris greeted three Americans released by Russia in a complex prisoner swap involving 24 people being held in six countries when they arrived on U.S. soil late Thursday. 

A plane carrying Wall Street Journal reporter Evan Gershkovich, Marine veteran Paul Whelan and Russian-American radio journalist Alsu Kurmasheva landed at Joint Base Andrews in Maryland after they were freed as part of the swap that also involved Germany, Slovenia, Poland and Norway. 

Pretty big moment, and an awful nice one.

Kamala had no binder, no script, and a chance to shine in her own look-presidential light. 

HOLY SMOKING SPACE BETWEEN THE EARS

God bless her, even POTATUS be all "VURT DA FURK...?"

I feel ya, brother.

POTATUS is channeling all of us.

I don't know that they can keep her hidden away under cover of ginned-up Yasss, queen enthusiasm when her innate true awfulness is an ever-present IED threatening to blow at the pressure of a feather.

But I do know they're worried about it, too, which is why Democrats are scrambling frantically. They are trying so hard to get this nearly impossible remake and rebuild completed.

So VERY hard.

She is truly a gift. 

An accidental somebody who should truly be nobody, and yet - here she is.

Holy crap.
