Kamala Harris Makes Dan Quayle Look Like A Superhero
I & I Editorial Board
September 26, 2024
If you want an idea of just how inept Kamala Harris has been as vice president, measure her against former Vice President Dan Quayle – the guy that the left universally berated as a pampered half-wit.
That characterization of Quayle was completely unfair. But when it comes to Harris, well, you be the judge.
Quayle’s approval ratings were, like Harris’, in the basement when he was VP. There was constant chatter among Republicans that George H.W. Bush should dump him. Few thought he was qualified to be president. Both he and Harris had privileged backgrounds and got a start on their careers more through connections than talent.
But the similarities end there.
Quayle’s unpopularity was the result of a relentless campaign by Democrats and the press to attack his qualifications. Harris earned her unpopularity by being unlikable and ineffectual.
Quayle was widely ridiculed as dumb, mainly because he sometimes misspoke and once misspelled “potato” at a classroom event (the word was misspelled on the card he got from the teacher). That was embarrassing and became the butt of a million jokes.
But it pales in comparison to Harris’ meaningless word salads, her utter inability to answer simple questions, and the time she stood at the DMZ in South Korea and declared: “The United States shares a very important relationship, which is an alliance with the Republic of North Korea. It is an alliance that is strong and enduring.” That monumental display of stupidity was quickly swept under the rug.
