Oddbean new post about login | logout Don't tell the haters, but our lovely VP Kamala Harris is commanding overflow crowds at HBCUs while also handling a formidable foreign policy portfolio.
@74aff7f9 Just goes to show you, dont let anything stop you from achieving your dreams.... not even being a horrible sexist human being who has done more to hurt women than most modern politicians... she still deserves it!
@74aff7f9 I find all the criticism of her both intentional (undermine the Democrats) and unfounded. It would be great if the general press would spend their time and energy discussing the real differences between the parties (democracy, abortion, climate) and the dystopian hell into which we will descend if Republicans gain anything more than what they have. (In fact, they need to lose big.) They could also actually cover what VP Harris is doing with some depth.
@74aff7f9 I applaud Harris's accomplishments. She is obviously very bright. She did a pretty good job as District Attorney and CA AG. But there are some buts as well. There is something about her speaking style that comes across as irritatingly condescending to me. Maybe that is just a personal issue, IDK. There have also been rumors that she bullies her staff, which is unforgivable in a senior manager. Then again, I would likely have found imperfections with Lincoln and FDR if I'd been there.
