Is Kamala Harris Tough Enough? I Think You Will Enjoy This

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart

A woman. What does this mean for Trump, his fake Republican Party, and even to some Democrats who know little about Vice-President Harris’ past? Men will question her “toughness,” and possibly her resolve in critical situations. Sexism was Hillary Clinton’s second biggest adversary after Vladimir Putin.

Let’s look back at ‘Senator’ Harris in 2018 vs Brett Kavanaugh, and Bill Barr in 2019.

BRETT KAVANAUGH LOST IN HIS BATTLE OF WITS WITH KAMALA HARRIS

In 2018, confirmation hearings were held for Brett Kavanaugh after the retirement of Supreme Court Justice Anthony Kennedy. For me, it was reminiscent of the 1991 confirmation hearings of Clarence Thomas. Thomas was accused of sexual misconduct by his assistant, Anita Hill. The mostly old, white men refused to believe Ms. Hill, and Thomas was confirmed.

In 2018, Kavanaugh was accused of rape during his college years by Doctor Christine Blasey Ford. Once again, the male-dominated Senate virtually called her a liar. He, too, was confirmed and has become a traitor to his country.

When it was Senator Harris’ turn to question Kavanaugh, it was clear that she was prepared, but he was not.

In support of a woman’s right to choose the future of her personal physical and mental health, Harris asked a simple question.

“Can you think of any laws that give government the power to make decisions about the male body?” she asked.

Kavanaugh froze for several seconds before responding, “I'm happy to answer a more specific question.”

“Male versus female,” Harris replied.

After a back and forth, Kavanaugh told Harris, “I'm not thinking of any right now, senator.”

The exchanges received considerable play on late-night talk shows and on social media.

BILL BARR MAKES A BIGGER ASS OF HIMSELF

When William Barr released Mueller report to the public, there was little to see. Most of it had been redacted/censored. Senator Harris once again had questions.

When Harris asked if the president or anyone at the White House had ever asked or suggested that he open a Justice Department investigation into anyone, Barr, acting uncertain, at first repeated part of her question, "the president or anyone else..."

It seems you'd remember something like that and be able to tell us," Harris said pointedly, implying he was being evasive.

“Yeah, but I’m trying to grapple with the word ‘suggest,’" Barr responded. "They have not asked me to open an investigation."

"Perhaps they suggested? Hinted? Inferred? Harris pressed him.

When Barr failed to finish his answer, she said, "You don't know," sarcastically.

Asked later if anyone else had looked at the report, Barr once again became evasive, refusing to answer direct questions. It was apparent that he was protecting his illegitimate president.

"I think you've made it clear, sir, that you have not looked at the evidence and we can move on," Harris said.

I DOUBT THERE WILL BE A DEBATE

Some are likely questioning whether or not Trump and Ms. Harris will agree to a debate. If I was Trump, and I’m glad I’m not, I would never accept the challenge. She would refuse to accept Trump’s sideshow and force him to answer questions.

I am looking forward to the campaign. I believe huge laughs will come from the mouths of Ms. Harris and Trump. The difference will be that Trump will not be making attempts at humor.
