Kamala Harris Can’t Be ‘Rebranded’ – Conservative commentator Tori Lahren has suggested plans to reboot Kamala Harris’ poor public image are doomed.
Speaking to Fox Across America With Jimmy Failla, Lahren explained: “I saw that they’ve been trying to rebrand her for the last two years. Am I wrong on that? I mean, I feel like every six months we get some kind of a puff piece story about how Kamala Harris is being rebranded.
“I don’t know how you rebrand that. She sounds the exact same every time we hear her speak. Regardless of the topic, it never comes out, you know, as a complete thought.
“And she really just takes the words of what she’s talking about, like the subject title, and she just mixes them around and calls that a speech. So I don’t know how you’re going to rebrand Kamala, but best of luck to them.
“I don’t know if they’re looking at Joe and thinking, oh, boy, you know, this is going downhill. We better get her ready. But either way, I mean, they’re just doomed on that side, which is why they would love to run against Donald Trump, to be honest with you.”
Kamala Harris In Trouble
Lahren’s remarks come as Harris’ public popularity has hit crisis-levels, just as the Democrats gear up for 2024 campaigning.
According to new polling from Rasmussen Reports, when likely voters were asked whether Kamala Harris was performing better or worse than previous vice presidents, the results were strikingly unfavorable.
A significant 50% of respondents deemed her performance worse, while only 22% saw an improvement, and 24% perceived no difference.
The poll revealed that only 42% hold a favorable view of the vice president, while a more significant 53% have an unfavorable opinion.
The survey also inquired whether Harris was aiding or harming Biden’s chances, and a notable margin of 33% to 22% indicated that her presence was more damaging than beneficial. Equally significant is the fact that 41% believed Harris’s influence was negligible.
Skelton’s Suggestions
In the midst of these findings, George Skelton, a seasoned political columnist for the Los Angeles Times, suggested a solution to Biden’s potential conundrum. Skelton proposed that Biden replace Harris and offer her a path back to California, where she could potentially take the seat of Senator Dianne Feinstein.
He articulated, “Biden’s problem is Harris. She’s a burden — a drag on his reelection prospects.”
This idea of replacement isn’t new; even Democratic pollster John Zogby has floated the same notion in a recent podcast. However, despite these suggestions gaining traction, Biden has demonstrated no intentions of altering his choice.
A recent memo to supporters reinforced his commitment to Harris, claiming that her selection was “one of the best decisions I made” and that she remains “the perfect choice.”
