Vice President Kamala Harris’ political history proves that putting her in power is a bad move that hurts Americans.
The powers that be decided this week that despite her disastrous approval numbers and long history of unpopularity among Democrat voters, Vice President Kamala Harris will take President Joe Biden’s place as the blue party’s presumptive 2024 candidate.
Here are 30 reasons why Harris, whether through Biden’s resignation or the upcoming election, would make a terrible president.
1. She Covered Up Biden’s Cognitive Decline
Harris had a front-row seat to President Joe Biden’s mental and physical deterioration but never said a word. In fact, she routinely issued statements indicating Biden was fit enough to stay president.
2. She’s Sympathetic to Pro-Hamas Demonstrators
Harris believes the pro-terrorist activists taking over college campuses, occupying highways, and defacing military cemeteries are merely “showing exactly what the human emotion should be.”
3. She Refuses to Oppose Abortion Until Birth
Harris famously refused to say which abortion limits she supports in a September 2023 sitdown with CBS’s Margaret Brennan.
4. She Shirked Her Duties as Border Czar
Biden named Harris as border czar in 2021, but it took her months to visit ground zero of the record-breaking invasion her administration incentivized. The Border Patrol chiefs responsible for securing the border also confirmed that Harris never spoke with them.
5. She Also Put Other Countries’ Borders Before Her Own
Harris traveled thousands of miles away from the U.S. border invasion she was tasked with handling to deliver “peace and security” to the borders of Ukraine, which “is a country.”
6. She Knowingly Spread the Border Patrol Whipping Lie
Harris claimed she saw “horrible” footage of Border Patrol agents whipping illegal border crossers, but a U.S. Customs and Border Protection investigation found no evidence that the horseback unit used their reins to strike migrants.
7. She’s Wildly Unpopular
One of Harris’ most notable accomplishments is receiving the worst vice presidential rating in the history of modern polling. Her abysmal job approval ratings have only continued, often ranking worse than Biden’s, and do not suggest that she’s up to the task of taking over the presidency.
8. And Disliked by Her Staff
A whopping 92 percent of Harris’ staff left in her first three years as vice president.
9. She’s out of Touch
While arguing against voter ID laws, Harris claimed that it’s “almost impossible” for rural Americans to make a photocopy.
10. She’s a Bad Speaker
Harris has tried to come off as inspirational, but her speeches and public addresses are often riddled with jumbled, off-script chattering or unintelligible babble that rivals Biden’s incoherence.
11. She Praised the Persecution of Lifesaving Pregnancy Centers
Harris used the presidential podium to cheer on Democrats for “taking on rightly the crisis pregnancy centers.”
12. She Supported Bailing Out 2020 Rioters
Accused rapists, repeat offenders, and rioters alike benefitted in June 2020 when Harris encouraged her social media followers to donate to a bail fund dedicated to those arrested for their months-long, $2 billion siege of cities like Minneapolis. The vice president later lied about her involvement in the money-raising scheme.
13. She Dodges Questions About Defunding the Police
During the peak of Black Lives Matter calls to defund the police in 2020, Harris refused to say whether she supported defunding law enforcement. Instead, she championed meeting the “dire need for mental health resources.”
14. She May Have Plagiarized Her Go-To Childhood Story
Harris loves to tell a story about asking for “fweedom” from her stroller at a civil rights march. That supposed childhood memory, however, suspiciously resembles one Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. told Playboy in 1965.
15. She Supports Race-Based Wealth Redistribution
During her short-lived presidential campaign in 2020, Harris debuted plans for a $100 billion home-ownership subsidy for black families she claims should be repaid for “generations of discrimination.”
16. She’s a Gun Grabber
Harris threatened during the 2020 Democrat primary debate to take “executive action” on guns if Congress did not meet her demands by passing “the most comprehensive background check policy we’ve had.” After taking office, Harris claimed no one is “trying to come after your guns” as the Biden administration and Democrats prepared to do just that.
17. She Wants to Raise Taxes
During the 2020 vice presidential debate, Harris proudly promised the Biden-Harris White House would repeal a bill that prevented a $4 trillion increase in taxes.
18. She Wants to Ban Fracking
“There’s no question I’m in favor of banning fracking,” Harris said during a 2019 CNN town hall.
19. She Voted Against Protections for Born-Alive Babies
Harris failed infants in 2019 when she voted alongside other Democrats against legislation that would compel doctors to give babies born alive after botched abortions the same level of care other humans receive.
20. She Wants to Strip Americans of Their Health Insurance
During a CNN town hall forum in 2019, Harris said she wanted to eliminate all private insurance, which would strip millions of Americans of their health coverage.
21. Yet She Wants Taxpayer-Funded Health Care for Illegal Border Crossers
“I am opposed to any policy that would deny in our country any human being from access to public safety, public education or public health, period,” Harris told CNN’s Jake Tapper in 2019.
22. She Proudly Enabled the Jussie Smollett Race Hoax
Harris called the staged hate crime an “attempted modern-day lynching.” She did not apologize even after Smollett was found guilty of felony disorderly conduct and making false police reports.
23. She Socializes With Notorious Antisemites
Harris claimed Rev. Al Sharpton, who has a history of inciting race riots and anti-Jewish pogroms, has “spent his life fighting for what’s right and working to improve our nation.” She also spoke at a summit with ties to the former Women’s March Chair Tamika Mallory, who stepped down after praising Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan.
24. She Demanded Twitter Deplatform Trump
In 2019, Harris called on then-Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey to suspend Donald Trump’s account because she deemed his tweets incendiary.
25. She Sponsored Legislation That Would Codify Abortion Through All Nine Months
As a senator, Harris was a proud co-sponsor of the original version of the “Women’s Health Protection Act,” which sought to codify abortion through all nine months of pregnancy.
26. She Compared Border Security to the KKK
As a senator, Harris asked the acting director of Immigration and Customs Enforcement if he “saw any parallels” between the KKK and his agency.
27. She’s Into AOC’s Socialism
When pressed about Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s proposed 70 percent tax hike in 2019, Harris called the freshman legislator “fantastic” and praised her for “challenging the status quo.”
28. She’s Openly Anti-Catholic
As a senator in 2018, Harris smeared Brian Buescher, a nominee for the U.S. District Court in Nebraska, for his affiliation with the famous Catholic fraternal organization Knights of Columbus and its historically pro-life views.
29. She Aided the Character Assassination of Brett Kavanaugh
Harris not only publicly declared her belief in Christine Blasey Ford’s evidenceless allegations against Justice Brett Kavanaugh but used her position as senator to interrupt and smear the Trump nominee numerous times during his 2018 confirmation hearings. Even after Kavanaugh officially joined the high court, Harris claimed his confirmation was a “denial of justice for the women of this country.”
30. She Prosecuted Journalists for Doing Their Jobs
As California attorney general, Harris prosecuted journalists David Daleiden and Sandra Merritt for exposing Planned Parenthood for trafficking the body parts of aborted babies. Part of her prosecution involved a raid on Daleiden’s house, where investigators allegedly seized footage further implicating the abortion giant and handed it over to Harris’ abortion campaign donors.
