Joe Biden and his allies have lost more credibility and popularity in the last six months than Democrats ever thought would be possible. The Democrat propaganda machine and its leftist surrogates in the media are leaving no stone unturned in efforts to stop former President Donald Trump from sending Biden packing in November.
A recent development is showing just how desperate Democrats are these days. Polls are indicating that the Biden ticket is in serious trouble despite the incumbent securing the Democrat nominee selection heading into the fall.
A serious weight holding Biden back, according to polls, is the continued failed performance of Vice President Kamala Harris. Her failures and lack of relatability to voters, even hard-core Democrats, has her own party calling for a big change to help Biden.
From the Washington Examiner:
Vice President Kamala Harris is being called to resign from her position in order to give President Joe Biden a better chance at reelection.“This is why I propose with all due respect that Harris step away from the ticket,” wrote Kathleen Parker of the Washington Post editorial board. “Please, Madame Vice President, do it for your country.”
Harris is polling at historically low levels for her position. A survey by FiveThirtyEight revealed only 37% of people polled approve of Harris, an extremely low approval rate for a vice president. By comparison, former Vice President Mike Pence held an approval rating of 41% at the end of his time of office.
The opinion piece from Parker didn’t hold back punches on Harris. The heavily critical piece essentially called out the entire process of placing Harris in her position, and how Democrats are stuck with her unless she acts on her own.
“The Kamala conundrum comes down to this: She was picked because she was Black and female, a combo tantamount to job security,” Parker wrote. “Now that she has become a burden to the Democratic ticket, Biden can’t fire her. He can’t risk alienating his base. Full stop. The seriousness of this situation can’t be overstated.
That seriousness includes the prospect of Harris filling in if Biden must resign while in office. Parker pointed to Biden’s “diminishing faculties” and “increasing physical frailty” as concerning. His “relatively successful” State of the Union address, Parker stated, are not enough to instill enthusiasm for the ticket.
Biden and Harris have hit the campaign trail on a platform promoting abortion rights to rally voters. This is an effort to reach key demographics, like young women, to bolster their presidential reelection campaign. Harris embarked on a nationwide tour, but hasn’t produced stellar response across the voter spectrum.
Despite the weaknesses of the names on the Democrat ticket, the Biden-Harris campaign hauled in $10 million within the first 24 hours following Biden’s annual address before Congress. The campaign has also reported $42 million in January and $53 million in February. These tallies boosted the campaign to $155 million cash on hand at the end of last month.
The cash-rich Democratic Party presents a formidable financial barrier to Trump’s campaign. Republicans must find ways to bolster the campaign coffers heading into the summer months as Trump faces off with multiple civil and criminal legal battles.
Key Takeaways:
- Kamala Harris received a harsh request from liberal media to exit the Biden ticket.
- A national newspaper opinion piece said Harris is a “burden” to the reelection campaign.
- Only 37% of voters approved of Harris in a recent poll that was a harsh rebuke of the VP.
