On the Democratic primary debate stage in August 2019, Joe Biden pointed out that the president does not have the constitutional authority to rewrite gun laws by executive order without Congress. Kamala Harris laughed in his face and said, “Oh Joe, yes we can.â€
Almost exactly a year later, Biden is polling strongly as the Democratic Party's presumptive presidential nominee and just tapped Harris as his running mate. If Biden wins in November, he will be the oldest president ever on his very first day in office — meaning Harris, more than most vice presidents, will be only a heartbeat away from the Oval Office.
This prospect is, frankly, terrifying.
Ruthless pursuit of power, no matter the cost, defines Harris’s political career to date. Time and time again, the California senator’s record shows she views peoples’ rights and legal constraints on her power as mere obstacles on her climb up the political ladder.
