Some Democrats are leaking their disdain for Vice President Kamala Harris to the press, with a few political bigwigs arguing openly that Harris is a major liability for 2024.
Harris is struggling to "define her vice presidency. Even her allies are tired of waiting," the New York Times headlined in an article Monday.
That's because one of the few issues that some Democrats are in agreement on — whether they're allies of the vice president or not — is that she is a disappointment at best, the Times reported.
"But the painful reality for Ms. Harris is that in private conversations over the last few months, dozens of Democrats in the White House, on Capitol Hill and around the nation — including some who helped put her on the party’s 2020 ticket — said she had not risen to the challenge of proving herself as a future leader of the party, much less the country."
Even some Democrats who were supposed to be supporters of Harris "confided privately that they had lost hope in her," according to the Times.
