Let’s first consider how Kamala Harris got into politics. As an attractive young attorney she had an affair with Willie Brown, a married man, who was the mayor of San Francisco and then the equivalent of the Speaker of the House in California. He appointed her to two lucrative political positions for which she was not qualified and thus began her political career. The me too movement must be so proud! She eventually became the DA for San Francisco and then the Attorney General for California. By all accounts she was as corrupt as Andrew Weissman and backed prosecutions that were highly suspect for political reasons. Blacks were not happy with her and that is a lingering problem for her campaign which is why she tried to go after Biden as a racist.
I am delighted that she did because it has resulted in much more attention being paid to the fact that the segregationists Biden was talking about working with were Democrats. People like Tucker Carlson who seemed to skip over the racist history of the Dems are now talking about it. Lest you forget, the Dems were the party of slavery, segregation, Jim Crow and the KKK.
Now Harris has come up with an idea even more stupid than eliminating my private health insurance and giving it to illegals and the green new deal. She wants to have a $100 billion dollar program to provide mortgages for blacks who couldn’t get them otherwise. Aside from being racist discrimination, it is just plain stupid. People do any of you remember why the housing market crashed a decade ago. Starting probably with Carter and certainly with Bill Clinton mortgages were provided to people who didn’t qualify for and couldn’t pay them. She wants to do it all over again. Yeah let’s crash the housing market again so she can pander to blacks.
She is in a real interesting position on reparations, which she backs, because as I recall her family owned slaves. Maybe her and her family should pay reparations to the descendants of their former slaves. My family never owned slaves and didn’t even come here until the late 1800’s from Germany.
Reparations will be the subject of my next rant.
