Reuters recently released a report noting that Kamala Harris has demonstrated “low poll ratings, a failure to win over the Washington establishment, and concern among fellow Democrats about an underwhelming start in the job.”

Former West Wing White House officials have said that “her engagement on policy is lacking,” and the president does not see her as somebody “who takes anything off of his plate.” In a report from The Boston Globe, it was noted that there is disarray and dysfunction among her staff. The vice president’s office has been described as “not a healthy environment and rife with dissent.” Much of this is due to her “frequently inarticulate and cringe-making remarks in interviews and before audiences.” As far as accomplishments in the area of public policy and legislation, her achievements have been “close to non-existent.”

It appears that the Democrats have backed themselves into a corner. Harris was chosen as Biden’s running mate on the basis of race and gender.

Transgender? Check! Female? Check!
