The Kamala collapse is something to behold but also insanely predictable, given the woman's severe limitations as a candidate. She's been widely viewed as awkward and unqualified, but this was the Democrats' better option given the circumstances. That alone shows you the state of the party. Yet, back to Kamala, the latest NBC News poll confirms what we all knew about her, and now voters are starting to accept who this woman really is.
The vice president did a media blitz starting with her shambolic "60 Minutes" interview on CBS, which was busted for editing her answers to make her sound less of a simpleton, along with other interviews with self-professed Kamala supporters. She was on friendly territory for these hits and lost five points. NBC revealed this on Sunday, sending the media into a tailspin.
Additionally, her campaign is engaged in a low-intensity war with the Biden White House, with her staffers accusing Biden officials of sabotaging them. There are also reports of younger and older campaign aides and advisers for the vice president going at each other about Kamala being unable to get ahead of Donald Trump in any meaningful way. This woman raised $1 billion just to be tied with a man that the media claims is the most unpopular person ever to walk the Earth. It's embarrassing.

What also doesn't help is that she also picked the Queen of the Weirdos in Tim Walz, who would've been rejected as a running mate option by any sane person given his baggage—lying about his military rank, deployments to combat zones, Chamber of Commerce awards he never won, and being in China during the Tiananmen Square Massacre. His failure to load a shotgun without looking like a dolt was peak entertainment this weekend. I'd never thought the Democrats would ever trot out someone with a gun and an orange vest in a pathetic and transparent attempt to appeal to male voters. In this demographic, Democrats are dangerously underwater. John Kerry did that in 2004, so look what happened. But the collapse was coming because Kamala was never made of presidential timber. Even Democratic voters made that determination in 2020, with her dropping out before the Iowa Caucuses.

When Donald Trump nuked Joe Biden in the June debate, Democrats were left with no good options. They wanted to dump Joe but couldn’t transfer his sizable, though increasingly dormant, war chest to anyone else. It had to be Kamala, who wasn't ready for primetime. They went ahead with the coup regardless. Losing a close race is a moral victory as opposed to a 1980-style blowout, which was where Biden was heading.
When she assumed the top slot on the ticket, she held out on media interviews for as long as she could. You must blitz the media a month away from Election Day—it's required as your last chance to speak with voters, energize the base, and assist in get-out-the-vote operations. Even here, Kamala is in trouble because she always delivers a masterclass in serving up word salad.
We still have three weeks until Election Day. She can't stop doing media interviews, or maybe she will since she could drop another five points. It shows you what a waste she is; voters aren't that stupid. As we've said before, the only thing she has going for her is that she's not Donald Trump. You must have more—the "anti" candidates always fall short.
We’re entering the acceptance stage. Attaboy! pic.twitter.com/utQ35H7SCB
