Focus on Her Liabilities, Not the Harris Hype

Democrats rejoiced Sunday, after President Joe Biden announced that he would not seek election and endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris for the Democratic nomination in this year’s presidential election.
Praising Biden for his "selfless" and "patriotic" decision, which reports suggest was driven more by highly unfavorable polling than civic responsibility, those on the left also celebrated Harris not merely as the best candidate to replace him but as the leading candidate who can defeat former, and perhaps future, president Donald J. Trump on Nov. 5, just over 100 days from now, at the time of this writing.
They are delusional.
Democratic enthusiasm notwithstanding, Harris is a terrible candidate whose chances of besting Trump are at least as slight as Biden’s.
