It seens that Vice President Harris should “step aside,” as per Washington Post columnist Kathleen Parker who wrote on Friday. She called the vice president’s performance “disappointing,” and warned she’s become a “burden to the Democratic ticket” via Fox News.
It was noted that she said she was pulling for Harris to succeed, Parker argued her performance “has been disappointing.”
“The Kamala conundrum comes down to this: She was picked because she was Black and female, a combo tantamount to job security. Now that she has become a burden to the Democratic ticket, Biden can’t fire her. He can’t risk alienating his base. Full stop. The seriousness of this situation can’t be overstated. Biden’s diminishing faculties, notwithstanding his relatively successful State of the Union address, and his increasing physical frailty are concerning,” Parker wrote.
“Whatever the reasons, it has seemed that Harris’s role was to be quiet, lest she embarrass her boss with her sometimes inane, rambling remarks and a laugh that erupts from nowhere about nothing obvious to others,” Parker wrote.
The headline to the column read, “For the country’s sake, Vice President Harris should step aside.” Parker argued that her perspective was not partisan as she also called for Sarah Palin to quit in 2008.
The Washington Post columnist also noted that Harris was unpopular with voters, and said her popularity was unlikely to spike if she were to become president, should something happen to President Biden.
“There’s no reason to think her ranking would spike were she suddenly promoted to the Oval Office. Instead, most signs point to disaster. This is why I propose with all due respect that Harris step away from the ticket,” Parker continued.
