‘Could Not Run Away’: Adam Schiff Says Harris Lost Race Due To Being ‘Status Quo’ Candidate

Democrat California Sen. Adam Schiff  said Sunday on NBC News Sunday that former Vice President Kamala Harris lost the 2024 election to President Donald Trump due to being a “status quo” candidate.

Despite polls showing a tight race between Harris and Trump in 2024, the president won both the Electoral College and the popular vote for Republicans, leading Democrats to question their mistakes. While on “Meet the Press,” host Kristen Welker began by bringing up a new book by author Chris Whipple in which it is alleged how Biden had repeatedly been “struggling to focus” before withdrawing from the race.

“Do you think that former President Biden’s advisers misled the American people about his capacities?” Welker asked.

“You know, it’s hard for me to gauge what they’re the closest advisers to the president were seeing at the time, ” Schiff responded. “I can only speak to the interactions that I had with him, which were, you know, in the months leading up to his getting out of the race, largely ceremonial occasions. But, you know, I will say this. He made the decision to get out of the race. I think that was the right decision.”

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

I hate when articles have typos.

Title should have read Status Ho

Or she's just dumb as a sack of hair.

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.

Nope, "brain dead" would definitely be status quo.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
