Kamala Harris has proven once again that her political career is built on a shaky foundation of deception and discomfort. The 2023 vice presidential candidate demonstrated this with a recent cringe-worthy interview on CNN where her body language spoke volumes. Nodding awkwardly while evading tough questions, Harris looked like a deer caught in headlights, clearly aware of how out of her depth she truly was. Yet, this is the same individual the Democratic Party has put forth as a serious contender for the presidency. The situation raises a critical question: how did the party of the far-left find itself in a position where this hapless figure could potentially secure the nomination?
Victor Davis Hanson, a conservative commentator, highlights the paradox of a radical vice president campaigning as a moderate presidential candidate. He argues that Harris will need to adopt 15 dubious “rules for radicals” if she hopes to salvage her presidential aspirations. Amidst high-profile blunders, her ascent to becoming the Democratic nominee seems more like a tale of survival than a political triumph. Democrats, who once feared Harris as a liability, now have her positioned as their savior, only proving that desperation can breed the most absurd outcomes.

Victor Davis Hanson Lays Out 15 'Rules for Radicals' He Says Will Get Kamala Harris Elected https://t.co/aT08iymous— Bill Bateman (@BillBateman1) September 3, 2024
The president she served under received low approval ratings, leading many to question why the party would cling to a candidate tied so intricately to his legacy. Harris, who has spent her entire career strutting her radical credentials, is now attempting to erase that past. If being openly “woke” didn’t scare many away, her history of pandering to far-left minorities and using race as a political tool certainly adds a layer of skepticism to her current charade.
Despite the Democratic National Convention’s attempt to paint Harris as a refreshing new face, the task of rebranding her as a solution to the country’s woes is monumental. The motley crew of Democrats who once dreaded the idea of Harris leading the charge is now pushing her forward, presumably aiming to create a narrative around a nonexistent “Harris record” that distracts from the failures of the Biden administration. It’s a smoke-and-mirrors game with one objective: to obfuscate a miserable reality.
To execute this transformation, Harris is already on a cliff-dive strategy, shifting her positions on key conservative issues in a bid to appeal to a broader audience. Whether it’s rebranding herself as a robust defender of America’s borders or adopting a hawkish stance on foreign affairs, the sheer flip-flopping is enough to make heads spin. The effort to distance herself from Biden is patently transparent, as Democrats bristle at the mere mention of his name in connection to the upcoming election. Harris’ strategy embodies a potentially harmful precedent where unfounded accusations, whether labeling the opposition as “criminal” or framing the election as purely racial, take center stage.
It is difficult to escape the conclusion that this is all a ploy, one that even leftists might struggle to buy into. Kamala Harris’s political evolution is as convincing as a magician pulling a rabbit from a hat—it’s all an illusion with little substance. While she may be banking on the power of rhetoric, the underlying reality is clear: her authenticity is as thin as the paper her campaign platforms are printed on. Harris embodies the ultimate political fraud, and as many know, this charade is unlikely to resonate with a significant portion of the electorate come November.
