Harris-Walz – Crazy Dumb

What a team, Harris and Walz. Dumb is being fooled twice. Crazy is wanting to be fooled. Crazy dumb is thinking Harris-Walz is a serious ticket. The damage they could do is stunning.

Bottom line up front: Neither Harris nor Walz have the fundamental trait of leadership, integrity. Integrity is not perfection, freedom from self-correction, but honesty, honor, sincerity, compass, and incorruptibility. If a candidate cannot be trusted, all else fails.

Bereft of that element, evidenced by earnestly held positions on public matters, a bond with the public, straight talk, keeping one’s word, and delivering on promises, there is nothing.

Harris has an entire career – and now nomination – built on the opposite, falsehoods, cheating, mischaracterization of herself, compromising integrity to climb, defaulting to pablum, brazen misrepresentations about what she has done, no shame. Zero.

Before being selected as Biden’s backup, touted for race and gender, she was a local prosecutor with an undistinguished record, no hard cases, and lots of press releases. 

Initially, she ran for San Francisco AG claiming she would be “tough on crime,” a schtick she is lofting again. She dropped that to support sanctuary cities, free illegal aliens, infuriate law enforcement, roll back sentences of killers, and dump on ICE and CBP.

She hid evidence of her office’s misconduct, leading to the dismissal of 600 drug cases, discredited whistleblowers, and refused to answer for graft. Supported by Obama and her California clutch, she secured the AG spot for California and boldly abused that power.

Ignoring federal rulings, she refused to release hundreds of prisoners, trampled on religious liberties of multiple faiths, and knowingly misinterpreted non-profit laws to force conservative non-profits to reveal their donors, until rehammered by the courts.

As a civil rights attorney noted, her defense was not credible. “She either had no clue what was happening … or she simply lied and threw her deputies under the bus.” Wrote the Atlantic, her actions were “unworthy of a first-year associate, much less the chief lawyer of our nation’s most populous state.”

So, politicizing a non-partisan legal office, she suppressed constitutional rights, hid evidence the Supreme Court mandated she produce, sought to bankrupt gun manufacturers, and jail marijuana users.

Only in California would a record like that not earn judicial censure, recall, and prosecution for abuse of discretion. Instead, that record – with Obama’s cover – got her a senate seat.

What did she do in her short time as a senator? Well, just as she and sidekick Walz are doing now, she pushed citizenship for illegals, 11 million voters in eight years. Says Walz, if you oppose that, you are “weird.” Indeed.

What else? Harris co-sponsored bills to protect illegals from deportation, mandate “Medicare for all” (socialized medicine), “ban” private health insurance, increase giveaways to illegals, ban fracking and offshore oil drilling, defund state and federal police, called ICE the “KKK,” sought – as “border czar” – to “undo” border security, supported as vice president 94 Biden executive orders opening the border… tried to ban plastic straws.

As Senator, she voted for astronomical spending, debt, and taxes, then as vice president, facilitated record interest rates, and inflation that shot to nine percent in August 2022. Her far-left environmental extremism, with fiscal irresponsibility, threatens to cripple the average family’s spending power, has made housing unaffordable, has no defense.

Notably, under Trump, the nation had high growth, employment, wages, lower taxes, interest, and inflation that was almost unmeasurable it was so low (just over one percent).

Worse than nothing, Harris has done enormous damage already and would do far more, as she presses for open borders, ignores human and drug trafficking, and was complicit in shipping illegals from Maine to Missouri, Virginia to Michigan. She raised money to finance the release of violent illegals on bail, and then called Biden “sharp as a tack.” Right.

Instead of running in her own right, she truncated all others in her party, lied until the primary process was over, and then – we now know – helped Nancy Pelosi remove Biden with threats, internally dethroning her party’s nominee – who had all the delegates.

In the end, Harris is a closet Marxist, the closet door is open. Unapologetically craven, morally corrupt, disrespectful of faith, families, veterans, American history, and law, her best attribute is being inarticulate, permitting others to pour meaning into her jumbled words.

If Harris is unfit, what of Tim Walz? Arrested for driving 100 miles an hour drunk, he ducked the penalty; pushing illegal alien voting with driver licenses, he favors citizenship; guilty of intense COVID lockdowns, bankruptcies, and fraud, he pretends he carried “guns in war,” steals the honor of dead men with a fake rank, quitting when his unit deployed. He is a piece of work.

What a team, Harris-Walz. Crazy dumb … would be voting for crazy dumb.
