Kamala Harris’s word salads, non sequiturs, and promises make me think of Depeche Mode’s Enjoy the Silence. Two lines in particular:
Words are very unnecessary.
They can only do you harm.
With regard to her campaign, each time she speaks she does herself harm in the eyes of anyone with a modicum of commonsense and logic. With regard to the country, each time she promises a “new way forward” she makes anyone with a memory ask, “From what, your own policies and actions?”
Had she acted to stop the border crisis instead of exacerbating it, tax money spent on illegal aliens would have been available for American citizens. And that point draws in three more lines from the song:
All I ever wanted,
All I ever needed,
Is here in my arms.
Yes, we had the money for domestic causes. It was “here in our arms.”
So, what can we expect from Harris if people elect her?
More words without actions. More unnecessary words, such as her answers now mocked even by the liberal writers of Saturday Night Live skits.
Harris has proved herself to be a woman of inaction. Imagine such a person on the world stage trying to negotiate with foreign leaders. Imagine her speech to the UN. No, don’t imagine. Here it is:
World diplomats, I address you today because I am here today to address you. This is a significant time in world history. It’s called the present. It is the Now in which we meet to discuss the world and its pressing problems like climate change and raising up the people in need of our help. It is a time of unrest around the world, and by world I mean this planet which is one of nine planets if you count Pluto, but some say that Pluto isn’t a planet and that’s why the United Stated has NASA and a Space Force because we have to avoid a conflict in space that might affect the planet and change climate which is an existential threat. We have to join together to stop the world from warming. Otherwise, hurricanes will get bigger; it will rain in the Sahara where water is now scarce—and we need clean water that I intend to make available to all who need water because water is important. {she laughs] We can’t survive without it though I prefer sparkling water that I just found out has carbon dioxide in it. [she laughs] So, I’m proposing a worldwide ban on sparkling water because every time we open a bottle, some of that carbon dioxide escapes in those little fizzy bubbles and enters the atmosphere just the way those bubbles go up your nose when you take a drink. [she laughs] Scientists tell us that carbon dioxide is changing the global temperature. My administration will do all it can to stop an economy based on sparkling water and fossil fuels.America will join other countries to stop terrorist groups like Perrier whose only goal is to destroy the planet with fizzy water. America will stand behind a worldwide regression because we are progressive and want an opportunity economy for all the people of the world, all eight billion people who live on every continent and lots of islands, well except for Antartica that is a continent at the bottom of the world where it is as cold as Pluto, and all the water is frozen. In conclusion, I want to leave you with this thought. [she laughs] Together we can do what we do because we act together. Thank you [she laughs].
