Cynically running out the clock has been the overarching principle of the entire abbreviated 105-day presidential campaign of Kamala Harris—ever since Joe Biden, at the 11th-hour, dropped out in July.
Harris seems unwilling or unable to answer any impromptu question that she has not been previously prepped for. Her answers at the debate were memorized and canned. They never addressed the questions asked.
Her single, 11-minute post-debate Philadelphia interview was a shipwreck of dodging and dissimulating—even though the host was sympathetically left-wing.
Even socialist Bernie Sanders pointed out that for Harris to get elected, she must temporarily disown her lifelong leftist credentials.
As vice president, she must further deny co-ownership of the unpopular record of the Biden-Harris administration.
Left unstated is that whether she wins the presidency—or loses it and continues as vice president for another three months—nonetheless she will inevitably revert back to her hard-core, lifelong leftist beliefs.
In addition, Harris has reconstructed her privileged upbringing as a child of two PhDs, living in a posh Montreal neighborhood into a struggling, middle-class Oakland childhood.
How can she stage such a complete makeover—and contemptuously count on the voting public to be so easily deceived?
She avoids all news conferences, one-on-one nationally broadcast interviews, and town halls. And like Biden, she will debate only on leftist venues with impartial pro-Harris moderators.
When asked to provide the details of her past responsibility for the open border, inflationary economy, spiraling crime, attacks on fossil fuels, and collapsing foreign policy, Harris smiles, makes hand gestures, and dodges. She changes the subject to her empathetic personality, her “joy” campaign, and her iconic profile as a supposedly dynamic black woman.
When pressed, Harris outsources the task of squaring her hypocrisies and subterfuges to the stonewalling campaign, Democratic surrogates—and the media.
Harris is also certainly not running on her demonstrable experience, vision, or intelligence as much as she is not Trump (or, for that matter, her former partner Joe Biden).
To make that distinction stark, Harris must demonize and bait Trump nonstop and make the country fear him.
So, she paints Trump as a racist and violent insurrectionist, not a former president whose four-year term saw a superior foreign policy, economy, border, and security than during the Biden-Harris term.
Instead, Harris has repeatedly claimed Trump is a dictator and a threat to democracy—as if he had politically weaponized the FBI, CIA, DOJ, or IRS as had Barack Obama and Joe Biden.
Trump as Hitler has become a staple Democrat smear for the past decade.
That vicious caricature is so entrenched that major Democratic figures assume it’s okay to joke about, or seriously call for, Trump’s demise.
So, Harris’s current prominent advisor David Plouffe years ago warned the nation that “it is not enough to simply beat Trump. He must be destroyed thoroughly. His kind must not rise again.”
Just last year, Rep. Dan Goldman (D-NY) claimed that Trump “is destructive to our democracy, and he has to be, he has to be eliminated.”
Even after an assassin sought to kill Trump last week, House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries declared, “Extreme MAGA Republicans are the party of a national abortion ban and Trump’s Project 2025. We must stop them.”
Harris’s dehumanizing of Trump, outsourcing the campaign to the media, avoiding all public dialogue, and temporarily reinventing one’s politics and biography have taken a toll on the country.
Harris was coronated the Democratic candidate without ever entering a primary or winning a single delegate by vote. Some 14 million Democrat primary voters were reduced to irrelevancy.
Like the 2020 Biden campaign, Harris has nationalized a new kind of cynical campaign in which leftist candidates seek for a few months to deceive the public into thinking they are centrist and moderate—until elected.
Avoiding all cross-examination and outscoring the campaign to the obsequious media is now the new norm.
Most news stories deemed unhelpful to Harris—the left-wing, pro-Harris politics of the recent would-be Trump assassin, the lie that dozens of bomb threats were called in against Springfield schools due to Trump, or prominent Democrats before and after the recent assassination attempt blaming Trump for being the target of an assassin—are suppressed by the media.
The recent two foiled assassination attempts on Trump logically follow a near-decade pattern of trying to destroy rather than outvote him.
The Russian collusion hoax, the laptop disinformation con, the two impeachments, the effort to remove Trump from some 16 state ballots, and the attempt to jail and bankrupt Trump through five criminal and civil “lawfare” indictments and suits also led to the current hateful climate of Trump assassination attempts.
Harris thinks her delays, deceptions, and vilifications for the next 47 days will ensure her victory.
But if so, it will be because she, her stealth campaign, and her self-proclaimed guardians of democracy have been willing to systematically destroy it.
Harris thinks her delays, deceptions, and vilifications for the next 47 days will ensure her victory.
People who steal elections do not worry about the tired, antiquated tactics of running for office by explaining policies, convincing voters, and actually debating political opponents within a fair, balanced venue.
No, the DC junta doesn’t have to do any of that. They just have to plug in the sufficient number of ballots in a dozen or so counties sprinkled throughout three or four states to squeeze out a win. That’s all, nothing complicated or as mundane as actually campaigning for office–just manufacture the ballots, and then its tyranny for many decades–or longer.
I doubt Harris can overcome neighborhoods full of non-english speaking invaders, daily reminders of crimes that include victims that either involve neighbors and family or resemble them. Additionally factor in the costs associated with paying for minimal living standards pitted against wages and salaries that look more and more meager as personal saving and checking account balances decrease and credit card balances increase. So what should Americans expect as strategy options to be used by the controlling powers which are rapidly loosing benefit from the disinformation and propaganda provided by the ABC network progressive ultra partisans which now appear to have damaged themselves more than they helped Harris?
The first hope is that a third assassination attempt against Trump will be successful. And it should be apparent to all that Trump deserves to die because he doesn’t deserve to win. He must be stopped. And of course the media rhetoric, which resembles an Islamic Fatwa, is already excusing their provocations to employ violence by blaming Trump. After all the Nazi asked for it. If someone could have done that to Hitler WW II could have been avoided.
The second possibility will be the 2020 reliable vote harvesting, mail in voting scam and the drop box stuffing with signed and sealed ballots, in the wee hours of the morning, by brain washed, well indoctrinated college girls. Such ballots are already being signed and include the dead, those who have moved, and everyone who has no intention of voting who will never realize that Democrats will use a ballot to vote for them. After all no IDs are necessary in swing counties in swing states.
The third possibility will be a choreographed national tragedy or, better yet, a war. The actors are in play, the stage is set and the theatre attendees are anticipating a performance that will stun the whole world!
Any of the above will be in play including all of it. And there are lots of nervous Cat Ladies, Karens, those on the dole, those invested in China and most of all those who realize that a Trump presidency will put a lot of the current government power brokers in jail for breaking just about every law designed to prevent a fascist takeover of the American Republic.
Assassinating Trump appears to be a failing option, and for ballot stuffing, drop boxes and 3am skullduggery by Democrat party election officials to work, the win total will have to be plausible—which may be implausible if internal Trump polling is to be believed.
Thus, it would appear that war and black swans will be the fallback option for the Deep State.
Murphys Law and the Law of Unintended Consequences may not cooperate with Deep State designs.
Normal people appear to be in a quandary over how any modestly intelligent adult would seriously consider voting for the vacuous and politically extreme Kamala Harris. Mondale expressed no more than a hint of her extremist views but was sounded defeated in ’84. So, Clinton ran as a moderate, as all Democrats have done since then. It follows that what happened to Mondale should happen to Harris. It’s illogical for anyone to set aside their real-life experiences for what they know will likely be a continuation of bad policies while forgetting how much better they had it under Trump. The electorate consistently polls that it doesn’t like open borders, inflation, political repression, fiscal incompetence, and so much more. The point of Democrats’ propaganda isn’t to convince people that any of this is good as it is to make some break under the strain of the contradiction that these views are expressed by allegedly good people. Some haven’t yet made the simple paradigm shift that many politicians in the other party and their enablers are just the opposite.
Murphy, many people, including me, believe, was an optimist.
