Kamala Harris is gearing up for a run at the presidency, but there’s just one problem: her record as Vice President isn’t exactly a shining example of leadership. Now, as she steps into the spotlight, it seems she’s more focused on burying her past failures than owning up to them. And who can blame her? With a record like hers, it’s no wonder she’d rather the American people forget about her time as Biden’s right-hand woman.
From the moment she was tapped as Biden’s running mate, Harris was hailed as a trailblazer. But once the confetti settled and the hard work began, she quickly disappeared from the public eye. Sure, we saw her at the occasional photo op, but when it came to the real issues—like the border crisis—Harris was nowhere to be found. Now a former official is blowing the whistle on Kamala’s failure.
From Daily Caller:
A retired Border Patrol chief confirmed on Monday that Vice President Kamala Harris never spoke to him, even after she was tasked to lead a major facet of the immigration crisis…The lack of communication continued even after Harris was appointed by the White House to address the “root causes” of illegal immigration Central America…
“Absolutely not,” Scott said…“As soon as the Biden-Harris administration came in, we were basically told in no uncertain terms that if they wanted our opinions, they would ask, but they never asked.”
Avoiding Accountability
Harris was supposed to be the point person on one of the most pressing issues facing the nation. But according to Rodney Scott, the former Chief of the U.S. Border Patrol, Harris never even bothered to speak with him. That’s right—despite being tasked with overseeing the border, she didn’t once reach out to the person in charge of actually managing it. Talk about dropping the ball.
This lack of engagement wasn’t just a one-off, either. Throughout her tenure as Vice President, Harris has made a habit of avoiding accountability. Whether it’s the border, the economy, or foreign policy, Harris has consistently shied away from taking on the tough issues. Instead, she’s preferred to stay in the background, letting Biden take the heat for the administration’s numerous blunders.
Running from Her Past
Now that she’s running for president, Harris is doing everything she can to distance herself from her record. She’s quick to tout her achievements—however sparse they may be—but don’t expect her to mention her failures anytime soon. It’s clear that Harris wants to rewrite the narrative, hoping voters will overlook her lackluster performance as Vice President.
But here’s the thing: Americans have a long memory. They remember the promises Harris made, and they remember how those promises went unfulfilled. And as she tries to convince voters that she’s the right choice to lead the nation, her past is going to keep catching up with her.
Harris’ poor record as Vice President is more than just a political liability—it’s a sign of what’s to come if she gets her way. If she couldn’t handle the responsibilities of the vice presidency, why should we believe she’ll do any better as president? It’s a question that voters are sure to ask and one that Harris will struggle to answer.
Key Takeaways:
- Kamala Harris has a poor record as Vice President, particularly in her role to address the border crisis.
- Former Border Chief Rodney Scott revealed she never met with him for a briefing.
- As she runs for president, Harris is trying to distance herself from her past failures, but voters are unlikely to forget.
