Harris faces significant challenges in defending the Biden-Harris legacy, which includes severe inflation and a surge of over 10 million illegal migrants. Devine points out Harris' past radical leftist stances as a potential liability in future elections. She cites a CNN analysis indicating Harris was previously seen as a detriment to Biden's re-election prospects. Her tendency to deliver “inane platitudes” further complicates her image. For instance, her simplistic explanation of the Russia-Ukraine conflict was widely mocked: “Ukraine is a country in Europe. It exists next to another country called Russia. Russia is a bigger country. Russia is a powerful country. Russia decided to invade a smaller country called Ukraine.” Devine asserts that Harris' political career has been shaped by influential men, contributing to her perceived lack of authenticity. Despite her appealing resume, her actual political performance is marked by “inanity, insecurity, inappropriate laughter, and off-putting coquetry.” Furthermore, Harris' tenure as California's attorney general and San Francisco's district attorney is linked to increased crime rates and controversial policies like open borders and cashless bail. Devine describes her as “an anti-law-and-order candidate” and criticizes her focus on abortion rights, noting her historic visit to an abortion clinic as vice president. Ultimately, Devine argues that Harris and the Democratic Party benefit from a powerful myth-making machine, including media, Hollywood, and academia, which can obscure inconvenient truths. However, she cautions that certain realities, like Biden's cognitive issues and Harris' perceived incompetence, cannot be hidden forever. - https://mxmnews.com/article/90e7b436-04f0-4662-925c-f79e0bb8274f
