In a stunning display of media love-fest, the Washington Post appears to have crowned Kamala Harris as the new queen of cackles. The recent coverage has reached dizzying heights, almost reminiscent of a teenage girl’s infatuation with a new crush after a few dates. As the public gobbles up the exaggerated praise, the mainstream media is busy stitching together the fabric of a Kamala fantasy that many wish to see but simply isn’t grounded in reality.
What should raise eyebrows is how the so-called “journalists” are shoving their biases down the throats of an unsuspecting public. With the flair of a midseason soap opera cliffhanger, the Washington Post has taken to drooling over Harris’s laugh as if it’s the solution to every problem the nation faces. The maniacal glee could be enough to make even a seasoned writer blush, as they fawn over her joyous outbursts while turning a blind eye to the fact that laughing hysterically in dire situations isn’t exactly a mark of leadership.
It’s hard to ignore how the media’s adoration stands in stark contrast to the reality of Harris’s political prowess, or lack thereof. In the circus of politics, her performances often seem less charming and more like panic-induced hysteria. Proponents of her candidacy might repeatedly spotlight her affection for uproarious laughter, but it merely emphasizes her chronic inability to handle serious conversations. One can only wonder if her cackling could be conveniently mistaken for nervousness, a telltale sign that she’s out of her comfort zone.
The Washington Post has rolled out such lavish praise that one might suspect Kamala received a Nobel Prize for her guffaws rather than, say, earning the dubious honor of being the Democrats’ presumptive nominee. In the world of Democrat politics, where media sycophancy reigns, the only requisite appears to be a bubbly personality paired with an alarming disregard for the issues that really matter. Meanwhile, her critics contend that her failure to engage with real policy discussions often results in awkward attempts at humor that do little to inspire confidence.
@stephenkruiser: "What Kamala's cackle really indicates is her complete lack of preparedness in big people situations. Her word salads & cackle fits aren't 'charming' [but] are solid evidence that, in almost any public situation, she's in over her head." https://t.co/dixNQzTwWe

Fellow conservatives don’t need to panic; the fawning will likely escalate as election day approaches. However, it’s essential to remain vigilant against this onslaught of ludicrous admiration. The narrative being spun is reminiscent of a late-night infomercial that promises the moon but delivers nothing. While the media may have branded Kamala as “Laughing Kamala”—a moniker that embodies the sitcom-style portrayal of her campaign—many Americans are not buying what they’re selling. As the countdown to the election continues, this cackle-fest might just become the epitome of the Democrats’ denial about their candidate’s capability to lead.
