What you really see when you look at Kamala Harris
What we see is the bottom of the barrel of political talent available to the Democrat party.

What we see is the bottom of the barrel of political talent available to the Democrat party. Politics, especially in a major-league democracy, is supposed to be a serious business -- not a clown show. Joseph R. Biden is no exception. Being in politics his whole adult life, he is the quintessential professional empty suit. Always a dimwit, his advancing age has enhanced the obviousness of this condition. His wife’s dubious claim that she thought he suffered a stroke during his last debate brings to mind the last year and half of Woodrow Wilson’s presidency, in which he suffered a debilitating stroke that was kept secret while his semi-literate wife forged his signature when needed.
Recent clown show recruits include “Beto” O’Rourke and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez… both of whom have served in Congress. More recent still is Zohran Mamdani, a full-throated antisemite serving as mayor of the American city with the most Jews. And recently stricken from the roster of clowns is Eric Swalwell, who undid his political career by running for governor of California, thus compelling the exposure of his record as a serial sexual predator. Meanwhile, waiting in line to join the Democrat menagerie is James Talarico, who makes the other clowns almost seem normal by comparison.
Now, herein lies the rub. In politics, as in ordinary commerce, is something called branding: establishing the uniqueness of who you are and what you’re selling… hopefully in a positive light. Nowadays, branding is not going well for the Democrats. The clown-show perception is taking root, and this trend is being reinforced by the increasing clownishness of the new recruits.
