Kamala Harris’ rally in Kamalazoo, Michigan, was a total disaster, which Sarah covered yesterday. It had some heavyweight names, but nothing can help now. No one is going to look at this event as one that could move the needle because if there’s one thing Kamala can’t do—it’s that.

It’s simple, Michael—you won't win elections if you have no plan and no message.
