In fewer than 30 hours, Vice President Kamala Harris catapulted to becoming the leading contender for the Democratic Party nomination, having sewn up more than half of the delegates pledged to President Biden. She has not won a single vote ever in a presidential primary.
Every potential rival suspiciously dropped out, and donors lined up behind her as though she were a modern Pied Piper. Even Nancy Pelosi threw in her support, ditching the hopes of her home state governor, Gavin Newsom. The pace was so rapid that the media, oohing and aahing at the spectacle, forgot all about poor President Biden, who has still not made a live appearance since he retired to his Delaware home to nurse COVID symptoms.
Harris’s coronation smacks of deception of the highest order. In our editorial yesterday, we showed how the Democratic Party had become undemocratic in this saga. But we never expected deception to be the driving force behind their undemocratic actions.
Nearly everything that the Democratic Party has done since 2016 has been deliberately deceptive to deny Donald Trump success. In 2020, it was the Democrats who fell behind Biden (who had not won any of the nation’s first three primaries) and Harris (who withdrew a month before the Iowa caucus after her extraordinarily low polling) to lead them to victory. It was the Democrats who sprung race riots on us to make Trump look weak. It was the Democrats that used COVID-19 as an excuse to usher in over 145 last-minute ballot changes. Trump was leading on election night, but when mail-in ballots were counted under extremely relaxed rules, AP declared Biden the winner four days later.
After Biden’s Atlanta debate performance, the Democrats turned on their own party leader – showing how deceptively thin Biden’s grasp on the party was. He was the figurehead head of the DNC and the country. Biden resisted and resisted and resisted – he had, after all, legitimately won the nomination for the second time – but the powers-that-be wielded their Harry Potter’s magic wand.
The wand made Biden announce his resignation via a tweet. There was no press conference, Delaware Oval Office address, cameras, or Zoom call. Thirty-two minutes later, the wand reminded him that he had forgotten to endorse Harris – and Biden dutifully complied.
Thirty hours later, Harris had sewn up a majority of the delegates, turning her fire on Trump and showing how the fix was in right from the start. The American voter has been played like a fiddle. If a bunch of oligarchs and party bosses can coronate you, why have the primary at all?
