In these past few months, I spent a whole lot of time researching and writing about Kamala Harris. (Information that is now about as useful as the stats for the world’s top curling champions.)
Her presidential campaign was a repetition of her previous presidential campaign on a much larger scale. She blew through a ton of money, kept reinventing her campaign, failed to have a coherent message, blamed racism and sexism, and had her campaign devolve into infighting between family and professionals. That’s what happened in her failed 2019 campaign. And it happened again in 2024.
The difference was that this time she didn’t blow through a mere $36 million, but over $1 billion, with plenty of debt left over, including allegedly a whole lot of money shelled out to pay celebrities, and her campaign was dysfunctional with the usual infighting between various people inside it, and family, with Tony West, the husband of Maya Harris, standing in for his wife, who helped tank the 2020 campaign.
While the campaign spent money like water, it couldn’t manage to do the most basic things.
Before the election, I kept pointing out how I wasn’t seeing lawn signs. There was a good reason for that.
More than 1.5 million yard signs weren’t printed until late October. There weren’t basic reporting structures for organizers and volunteers in states until the end.
I’ll spare you the usual circular firing squad of campaign pros blaming each other and Biden. Campaigns are huge beasts and they’re often mismanaged. But this was a truly spectacular level of mismanagement. And much as they may try to blame the staff, not the candidate, as VP, Kamala had near total turnover in her staff, suggesting that she’s a horrendously bad boss. Now this may consist of actually being mean (and there’s at least one story that documents that) or just clueless and allows her various people to wrestle for power.
But at least we also know the campaign was racist.
The culture of the campaign was also a problem, said four Democrats. After melding the Biden loyalists with Harris’ longtime aides and new hires, the group wanted to move on from July’s drama. But campaign aides and outsiders complained to NOTUS for months that there was a lack of a defined leadership structure. Black aides felt routinely mistreated and demoralized, multiple people told NOTUS. Some had even wanted to make formal complaints and refrained for fear of retaliation.
Needed more equity.

Kamala was brought up by her mother Shyamala Gopalan- who proudly boasted that they were Brahmin-Hindu, and even is supposed to have stated that “Brahminism” is like “royalty” it is the “blood” . Therefore, is there any wonder on Kamala’s part to look down on everyone ? You can tell that by the wave of her hands demeaning all. No wonder no one worked with her long enough.

The caste system in India is one of the most racist, bigoted structures in world history. Non-Hindu is beneath contempt for Brahmin Hindu. The worst racism and treatment of our south was not as bad as the prejudice displayed to the untouchables. throughout Hindu history.

When she was AG of California or whatever, that fat nosed, turkey necked skank forced employees to address her every morning as “general’ and they weren’t allowed to look her in the eye. She’s Hitlery Clinton level psychotic.
We didn’t dodge a bullet when Trump swept the election in a landslide, we dodged a dirty nuke or a biological bomb. And the Kamel-ho’s biology is nasty.

Ca AG HarryAss made the stand at attention when the Witch Whore of Babylong walked in and she incarcerated more blacks than any 3 demonKKKrats has done — personally, the non-black or African American non-black Cackling Kamalalala hates blacks – it is apparent – she detested the illegal immigrant Barak Obama – but he is the one running the dementia installed by coup d’etat of stolen 2020 election White House

Why is it that left-wing females are always so monomaniacal? Especially politicians?
Khlamydia Hairyass reminds me of those skanky dykes with thick glasses on social media posting videos about how they’re going to “resist” and not pork any guys. As if any of them have a chance to pork a guy or avoid a carpet munch in a house full of cats.

Monomaniacal … good observation.
Cassandra says
Kamel nose Harris…
Kasandra says
She and her campaign were always incoherent. She couldn’t think of a thing she disagreed with regard to the policies of the past four years but, at the same time, was going to “turn the page” on those four years.”. So which was it, more of the same or something completely different?
CowboyUp says
I think she wanted everyone to hear whatever it was they wanted to hear, and not everything she was saying that was contradictory. Obama was good at that. He would contradict himself in the same speech, sometimes in the next sentence, taking a position for everyone, without the contradictions being questioned.

The wheels on the bus didn’t go round and round.
Jeff Bargholz says
Yeah, she went to public school in Oakland and rode school buses, LOL!
Bill DeWall says
Stop being burdened by what has been. Imagine what she would have done to— I mean, for America.
CTripps says
Of course blacks were treated unfairly, they work for democrats!
John Koh says
If Kamala can’t manage her campaign, even with the DNC machine behind her, imagine how horribly wrong our country would have fallen with her at the helm
Douglas says
Her past reputation of being not black, lazy and hard to work for did her in..
Cassandra says
In Indian(Asian) society, the darker you are, the lower your caste. The caste system is alive and thriving in India still. Kamala’s mother was a Brahmin, the highest caste and they have total contempt for black people, like the rest of the Democratic Party. This and the fact she couldn’t get on with 95% of her assistants shows her true nature.
