Syndicated columnist Froma Harrop is a faithful spear carrier for the Democratic Party. It was Harrop who publicly suggested that Bernie Sanders was a racist ("racist lite")when he was battling Hillary Clinton in the Democratic Party's presidential primaries in 2016. Harrop's views seldom depart from those of the Democratic Party's insiders.
Thus, I was startled to read Harrop's scathing criticism of Vice President Kamala Harris in a recent op-ed essay. Harris, Harrop wrote, has a "record of problematic conduct" and gaffes "and doesn't understand that California swagger married to identity politics is not universally loved by American voters."
Harrop professes to be mystified by Biden's choice of Harris as vice president. "Why Biden made her his running mate floors me to this day."
Harrop even goes so far as to challenge Harris's status as a member of an oppressed minority. "Harris'[s] mother was a medical researcher from India and her father a Jamaica-born professor of economics at Stanford," Harrop observed. "She was hardly a disadvantaged victim of Jim Crow." Ouch!
In my mind, Froma Harrop's flaming denunciation of Kamala Harris is a clear signal that the Democrats are dumping Harris before the 2024 presidential race. I certainly hope so.
Perhaps President Biden could find a quiet post for Kamala to get her off the national stage. She'd make a great U.S. Ambassador to Chad.
It's an un-killable myth that immigrants to the US are "poor, huddled masses" when currently they're more likely to be the upper crust of their home society. But, immigrants to the US are the most oppressed people on the planet, apparently, so their kids can get every advantage of being American aristocracy, while also getting all the alms of Liberal Guilt. The result is a brutally reinforced class society that the Left pretends to be against.
ReplyDeleteAmerican attitudes about immigrants have certainly changed. No one welcomed the Irish when they arrived in the U.S. during the potato famine.
