Barely 100 days before the biggest election of our lifetimes, Democrats have changed their horse during the race. Power brokers gave Joe Biden an ultimatum of Sunday to withdraw from his reelection campaign, despite how he was the democratically nominated candidate who said emphatically on Friday that he would remain in the race.
This arm-twisting of an American president by insiders and billionaires was humiliating to the United States, and another sign of decline about which Trump rightly complains. The signature on Biden’s withdrawal letter does not match Biden’s signature on his executive orders and other public documents.
[…]California values have never before been allowed to take control of the White House, as the prior presidents from California were Republicans. Californian Willie Brown said recently about his former side chick Kamala Harris that Biden should resign now to allow Harris to become president immediately, and thereby increase her chances of being elected in November.
Mistress Kamala has already failed miserably in the one job she was given, which was to take charge of our southern border. We’ve had the worst migrant crisis in our history on her watch.
“Hypocrite Harris” would be an apt nickname for how she relentlessly prosecuted many petty marijuana offenses in California, and then laughed in response to whether she smoked pot herself. When it became politically advantageous to advocate for legalizing the drug, she jumped on that bandwagon.
Whether it’s “Mistress Kamala” or “Hypocrite Harris,” it would be a catastrophe for our country if Democrats’ bait-and-switch trick were to prevail. Her far-left politics failed the Left Coast and would be disastrous for our nation.

Vice President Kamala Harris is a race hustler, a divider when the nation needs a unifier.
If Democrats make Harris the nominee for the nation’s top job, Americans will be given a stark choice in November: between racial preferences and fairness. A President Harris would rub raw the racial divisions in this country and ignite new violence in our streets.
[‘…]Would a Harris presidency be peaceful? Maybe not. When BLM protesters took to the streets in 2020, Harris said on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert that the protesters “are not going to stop. They’re not.” She added, “And they should not, and we should not.”
Fair warning. Racism won’t cure past racism. And race warrior Harris won’t heal the nation.

With some hard work, pluck, the right boyfriend and a bit of genetic luck, Kamala Harris has found her way onto the presidential ballot without having to secure a single primary vote. Don’t tell me the American Dream is dead.
Sure, Harris is a demagogue who speaks in cringy, swirling, impenetrable platitudes. And sure, according to President Joe Biden, Harris was an identity hire. But “Morning Joe” says we’re not supposed to talk about any of that. So, let’s discuss her record and stated positions.
[…]Like any good authoritarian, Harris enforces whatever laws she sees fit to enforce whenever she sees fit. One of the reasons Harris allegedly opposed the nomination of Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch was that the judge “consistently valued narrow legalisms” – which is to say, respected the Constitution – “over real lives.”
Harris was never one for legalism. When candidate Biden argued that Harris’ promise to issue an executive order unilaterally banning access to certain guns would be unconstitutional, she retorted: “I would just say: Hey, Joe, instead of saying ‘No, we can’t,’ let’s say ‘yes, we can,'” before cackling at the very notion that presidents couldn’t do whatever they wanted.
[…]When I say Harris is an authoritarian, I’m not contending she’s Hitler. I am saying she is a fan of obedience to authority, especially of Democrat-run government, at the expense of personal freedom in ways that are deeply un-American. That’s a bad trend in politics, in general, but it’s difficult to think of many politicians more wedded to the idea than Kamala Harris.

Within hours of her being announced as Joe Biden’s presumed replacement as the Democratic presidential candidate, Kamala Harris’ moderate makeover began.
Journalists reflexively began gushing over her “historic” candidacy and centrist views.
The love bombing and sheer dishonesty is a replay of 2020, when she ran for vice president as a supposed moderate.
The facts loudly spoke otherwise. As a U.S. senator from California from
[…]As California attorney general, she backed a state law that forced pro-life pregnancy centers into offering abortion referrals and even advertising abortion clinics.
That clear violation of religious liberty and the First Amendment’s protection against forced speech was struck down by the U.S. Supreme Court in the NIFLA v. Becerra case in 2018.
She also declined to ask for the death penalty for a convicted cop killer and pushed DEI training on California law enforcers.
But Democrats need not worry about any of this. Like Joe Biden, who was touted as a good old centrist before becoming the most radically leftist president in history, Ms. Harris gets plenty of cover.
2017 to 2021, she had a more leftist voting record even than socialist Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders.

Consider, the bureaucratic deep state just set aside the Democrat Party [sic] primary election results. Biden was forced out. Next the government will allow the transfer of about a quarter of a billion dollars from Biden’s campaign accounts to Kamala Harris.
Harris ran for president once, and garnered zero delegate votes, dropping out of the race just days before the primary election in her home state of California, where she had served in statewide office as attorney general.
Essentially, Kamala Harris is where she is because of one vote of confidence, a vote of confidence of a failed incumbent president. We might as well grab an illegal alien crossing the border and ask him, “We want you to be president, so now you are.” The woman has no constituency. The Democrat Party, once a party of the people, no longer exists.

Top Democrats, including Barack Obama and Nancy Pelosi, were initially reluctant to endorse Harris while she was pushed by a secretive backroom elite. The New York Post reported that the real reason Biden endorsed Harris was as a payback for a grudge Biden holds against Obama.
Suddenly, as a result of Dems replacing Biden with Kamala, Pennsylvania and its prize of 19 Electoral College votes are ripe for Trump to win. Biden won northeastern Pennsylvania only because he had grown up there, and the major thoroughfare in Scranton is even named after him.
In contrast, Kamala went to grade school in Berkeley, California, one of the most liberal towns in the United States, and her political career comes from across the bay in San Francisco. She and her supporters do not have any connection with the Pennsylvania voters she needs to win to have a chance.
[…]Liberals trot out Hollywood actresses to cheerlead for Harris, but Hollywood values do not play well in this Commonwealth of guns and Bibles. Pennsylvania has one of the largest veteran populations, among whom Trump is particularly popular due to his support of peace through strength.
Recognizing their vulnerability on these issues, Democrats turn to the cartoonish-looking Sen. Mark Kelly, D-Ariz., as their expected choice for VP. Completely bald and shorter than unsuccessful presidential candidates such as Michael Dukakis, this new Dem ticket would be the Odd Couple of Krazy Kamala and Little Mark.
