It Takes Some Smarts to Be President – So Far, Kamala Harris Hasn’t Shown She Has Them

One would expect that the general run of American voters would consider intelligence a requirement for being president of the United States, leader of the free world, commander of all our armed forces, the one who has nuclear weapons release. But then, before 2020, one could have expected a certain level of mental sharpness as likewise a requirement – but now we have Joe Biden, who was already sliding into dementia in 2020 and who has gotten much worse since.

And yet he remains in office. But that’s a story for another time. What’s concerning is his understudy, Kamala Harris, who is campaigning now to replace him. And we’re dealing with the fact that, to be perfectly candid, she isn’t very bright. In an article last Friday, “The Federalist’s” Managing Editor, Kylee Griswold, laid that problem right out for us.

After one voter observed that Harris was never elected to be the Democrat nominee but just magically became such when “President Biden was pushed aside,” the vice president naturally drove home the point for the umpteenth time that Donald Trump is the “unprecedented” threat to democracy. Funny she brought up Trump and democracy because the former president actually made an apropos comment about the topic earlier the same day, telling the Economic Club of Detroit: “Our biggest threat to democracy is stupid people.”

He’s onto something. Stupid people — people who know nothing of civic responsibility or common sense — do threaten the fabric of our self-government, especially when they hold power, and Kamala Harris is the poster child. She’s frankly too stupid to be president.

Read that last sentence again. If that’s not the understatement of the month, it will do until a better one comes along. But Kylee Griswold isn’t done yet.

Speaking of words, Harris is a woman of many. They just don’t make sense. She’s clearly never internalized the Abe Lincoln aphorism, “Tis better to be silent and be thought a fool, than to speak and remove all doubt.” Since her first cry for “fweeedom,” Kamala’s been removing said doubt.

“In terms of” how she talks, she constantly parrots vapid phrases like that one as a stand-in for real thoughts. In her Colbert interview, for instance, you can count three or four “in terms ofs” in a matter of seconds. She has the same habit with “I grew up in a middle-class family,” chanting in “blaccent,” and nervous laughter. No silence to be found.

Not only is Harris inarticulate, but she’s also unlikable. She’s like Barack Obama without savvy. Hillary Clinton without brains. Joe Biden without the facade of charm. There are simply no redeeming characteristics. Biden could at least sell the “unity” persona in 2020, even if it was a swindle. Kamala hasn’t found the right pitch and never will. No phony accent will convince astute Americans that she cares.
