Kamala DOESN’T have what it takes to be our first feminine president
If we are to believe that the first female presidency is truly within reach – then why are Democrats treating their candidate like an incapable little girl, unfairly maligned by masculine forces?
The bad man in question is Fox News host Jesse Watters, who found himself hung out to dry last week after stating on air that, should Kamala Harris win in November, the nation’s top generals would ‘have their way with her’ in the Situation Room.
Immediately, Watters’s colleague on ‘The Five’, Jeanine Pirro, reacted in shock.
‘I don’t like that. Take it back!’ she cautioned.
Yet Watters was unshaken: He’d been speaking ‘figuratively’, he explained. His comment had not been meant ‘in a sexual way’, rather he was simply saying that Harris would be overwhelmed by more capable experts during stressful moments of decision making.
Fox News host Jesse Watters found himself hung out to dry last week after stating on air that, should Kamala Harris be elected president, the nation’s top generals would ‘have their way with her’ in the Situation Room.
Simple enough. Though it didn’t satisfy the microaggression mob, who screamed ‘sexism’ and demanded Watters’s head on a plate.
In the days following, reports emerged that he was fighting to save his decade-long career at Fox.
Reams of articles appeared unscrupulously slamming Watters was a ‘misogynist’ or even – per the Fox-hating Media Matters site – a ‘racist’.
And for what?
Watch the clip for yourself. Any honest person can see his comments for exactly what they were.
And the real purpose of this absurd Watters witch hunt? To distract from the very good point he was trying to make: Harris is way out of her depth – and not least on matters of foreign policy, which are often hashed out in the Situation Room.
Take the Biden-Harris administration’s disastrous withdrawal of US troops from Afghanistan in August 2021.
Days later, in a TV interview with CNN’s Dana Bash, Harris boasted about being the ‘last person in the room’ with President Biden before he pulled the plug – a move which had left 13 American service members dead and all but handed Afghanistan back to woman-hating Taliban terrorists.
For some unknown reason, our wannabe first female president was trying to take credit for the catastrophe. On national TV.
Harris sat down with Dana Bash again last week, but this time she brought along a man to sit by her side and hold her hand.
Never mind that that she was facing a notoriously soft inquisitor on a Democrat-friendly network, or that the interview was helpfully buried during Labor Day weekend, Harris needed her running mate Tim Walz there riding shotgun.
A former public prosecutor – as she keeps reminding us – afraid of a little light cross examination.
The real purpose of this absurd Watters witch hunt is to distract from the very good point he was trying to make: Kamala Harris is way out of her depth.
That interview – from which we gleaned all of nothing about Harris’s policy-scant campaign – was her first since assuming the party nomination. She’s still yet to take a serious press conference and has no other interviews planned.
On Monday, as Harris boarded Air Force Two, she was seen emerging from her SUV wearing wired headphones in both ears and with her phone held to her ear as if on a call, dodging questions from the watching press.
How brave, how inspiring.
And that’s why this juvenile campaign against Jesse Watters does a disservice to women everywhere.
If Harris is really so vulnerable to featherweight interviews, or the clumsy phraseology of a TV host, then she has no place running for president.
And if the Left insist on this rush to kid-glove treatment at the faintest whiff of sexism or unfairness, then they must ask whether they themselves believe women are capable of rising to the top unhindered.
The truth is, Harris’s cheerleaders are increasingly desperate, praying for distractions and reasons to return the conversation to hot-button topics like her sex, and away from the blatant issue of her ineptitude.
Like every woman I know, I would love to see the first female president of our great nation. But Kamala Harris, like Hillary Clinton before her, is not up to the job – and that has nothing to do with men like Jesse Watters.
