California Senator Kamala Harris announced her candidacy for President on Monday during an appearance on Good Morning America, with a remarkably bland statement of “let’s make the country better together and stuff.”
The relative infancy and of Harris’s candidacy did not, however, stop the bad tweets. I’m not entirely sure what about Harris’s relatively moderate, sometimes progressive political background is apparently making people lose there minds, but here we are.
Example one:
Stunning. As well well know from 2016, criticizing any political candidate from the left automatically means you are a Russian spy, but also criticizing any candidate from the right also means you’re a Russian bot? I’m not sure. Russian bots exist, the Internet Research Agency is a real thing, they will undoubtedly try to fuck with the 2020 election. But discounting any progressive critique as “doing Putin’s work” is insane.
Here’s example two:
Genuine question: why are you asking this? What is the point my guy?
Follow up:
You know what, when you’re right, you’re right, Michael Tracey!
Third example after which I will immediately end this blog because we already had the Beto Cum Tweet recently and we do NOT need to go over that again.
This blog is over now. If you’ve seen another truly deranged Kamala Harris take, post it in the comments, or don’t, which would probably be better for everyone involved.
