Kamala Harris's approval rating falls to 28%, a historic low for any modern vice president

I swear we need a BGOL civics class.

I haven't heard of her messing anything up. She has made some comments people didnt like or which could have been better stated, but I haven't heard of any performance issues.
 
Who really gives a fuck about the VP approval ratings??
Its being heavily scrutinized because that invalid Biden has one foot in the grave and the other one on a banana peel. Its prudent to start scrutinizing his successor because he may very well keel over. That's the only reason it's an issue but it seems no one wants to say it. VPs are rarely seen or heard. But this case is special because of the President's age and appearance.

Well if he dies tomorrow....Harris will be president and Nancy Pelosi will be her VP.
Lord save us.
 
They have been targeting one thing at a time ever since Biden got into office.

The first step was to ease the pandemic. Once that was accomplished he pulled out of afghanistan. With that complete he's been trying to overhaul the country's infrastructure.

In the middle of this we unfortunately had a major refugee crisis. The Biden administration responded poorly in part because they were too preoccupied with their other goals to create a sensible immigration policy.

As much as I would love to drag Harris and the rest of the administration for this it was inevitable no matter who was in power.

That said, I agree with your do for self philosophy. Government can only do for self regardless of how well-intentioned or effective it is. The rest is up to us
He hasn't taken care of the core group that took care of him. So, he needs to prioritize. Second, this pandemic shit is hogwash. You make everybody take a vaccine when there isn't a need? The overhaul of the infrastructure is a fucking wash. That shit been gutted. So, he really ain't done shit. Its all good, all I will say is, watch your neck.

That sounds like some bullshit excuse since as VP she has zero to do with policy and can't even oppose anything from the administration

There is nothing to base this on.

If that was a concern then before the election was the time to address it since he has one foot in the grave

The scrutiny is legitimate. The media just won't say the real reason. It's the same reason the news is reporting on everything Pete Buttigieg is saying from racist construction to labor shortages. He's the Transportation secretary and he's getting more ink than the Defense secretary. It's all because he's likely on a short list to run in 2024 with Harris. They're both being heavily scrutinized because the dems don't have a deep bench for the next big election.
 
They hating.

Not at all. This shit is all coming from the people closest to her. The same shit people are saying about how she is running her office now is the exact same shit people said about her presidential campaign :smh: :



The problem is that the Democrats typically only win with a charismatic top of the ticket (B. Clinton, Obama) and lose when the choice is more pragmatic (H. Clinton, Gore). Biden only won because enough people realized what would happen if Trump was given 4 more years and, also, it is impossible to convince old cacs to "fear" the change another old cac is going to bring. :lol:

Her problem is that she isn't charismatic but also all of the things people itinially believed to be true about Obama (white spouse, criminal justice past etc. ). Democrats have to get this cleaned up now because she will lose in a matchup with Trump, DeSantis etc. I don't care who the nominee is provided they don't lose to Trump/DeSantis...
 
Which duties?
Cmon, your kidding right?
Biden taps VP Harris to lead response to border challenges

So is this what we are doing?? We gonna just Thanos snap away responsibilities?
Exactly. :lol:

VP literally only has to preside over the Senate. Not a fan of her or other wenches at all but she isn't fucking up because of failure to perform "duties". :smh::lol:
Tito Cacson

And then, just like clockwork, the Democratic minions try to co-sign an uninformed response without putting an ounce of thought into their responses. I really wish some of yall would just take the time to know what the heck you are supporting and talking about before you start chiming in. Mob mentality.

She's not Sarah Palin bad so if something happens, I think we will be ok.

Comments she made regarding the border were what I referred to in the other post, but what mistakes has she made? We only have ambassadors for one one of the three countries mentioned. We are still dealing with the fallout from the Trump years. What did she do or not do that was an issue?

Pence was put in charge of the covid response. I didn't see any criticism from all the anti-Biden/anti-dem folks then.

Edit: The GOP is blocking all the ambassadors nominated that had not previously served in the Senate and John McCain's wife. No comment at all from the don't vote crew.

she has no leadership skills and very poor manager
a la W Bush
and I have yet to find a story that shows any integrity in her DA and AG runs

thats a recipe for disaster

I'm hoping there are better options for President by the time she is in a position to run, but based on what I've seen of the GOP thus far, the worst the dems have to offer is 100x better than the best the GOP has to offer. So whomever gets the dem nomination gets my vote.

Aren't you the coon that was bragging about wearing random Ivy League lapel pins? :smh:

Nope, they did not block all of the nominees. A large number? Yes, but not all.

This displays another problem the Dems have, they are scared to play chess. There are work arounds to everything. You just have to be willing to take the gloves off. Particularly with the ambassador situation.

I know of 3 that have gotten through. Which other ones have been approved?

Edit: 4 As of Oct 27


Among the other 19 members of the G-20, 15 of them do not have a U.S. ambassador in place (Indonesia and Russia have U.S. ambassadors who were held over from the Trump administration). Biden has yet to nominate his own pick for Italy, which this year is hosting the annual gathering of leaders from the world’s largest economies, nor for the European Union, United Kingdom, South Korea, Saudi Arabia, Brazil and Australia.
The four ambassadors to foreign governments — Mexico, Turkey, New Zealand and Austria — who have been confirmed are either former senators or the widows of former senators, whom Cruz said he would not block as a courtesy. Cindy McCain, the widow of former senator John McCain (R-Ariz.), was also approved Tuesday as the U.S. representative to a United Nations food agency, which gives her the rank as ambassador. And the Senate approved Linda Thomas-Greenfield as United Nations ambassador as part of the Cabinet confirmations earlier this year.


But as time passes without the Senate processing ambassadors for elsewhere in the globe, allies of the administration are increasingly sounding the alarm about the diplomatic ramifications. Meanwhile, Democratic senators’ usual irritation at Cruz has reached new levels.

How is this different from my comment when taken in full? I said ALL, but if I go on to say who were not associated with the senate, that obviously that isn't ALL. You are just being contrary for the sake of being contrary.

As of today there have been 9 confirmed. Which is far less than other presidents. However, there are work arounds.

No, I'm being precise. Over 10% has been confirmed. That is not the same as zero. As I mentioned, it is significantly lower than other presidents. But, this is the dems fault.

Yo, remember Cheney? For folks talking about VPs don't do shit. When Bush was in office, it was all about Cheney. Biden going to be old as fuck going into 2024 and folks on that :D 'nothing to see here" shit. Then the same ones going to be like :eek2: "Russia"(or whatever conspiracy) if Kamala gets smoked in the election if Biden can't go.
 
Why would I wear "random" lapel pins when I graduated from Yale?? Nothing random about that, homie.

Give me your address, I will send you your ICDC College pin.

:lol:

My "club" is literally down street from yours in NYC but that would only make sense to you if you actually went...
 
MSNBC talks about global warming and the climate crisis all the time. Chris Hayes had a climate special.

Perhaps I should be more specific: when the talk about the bizarre, science fiction like weather events that occur
with increasing frequency, they fail to connect the same with climate change. One special does not responsible
news reporting make.
 
In a country of 330,000,000 people its reasonable to believe you can live a lifetime here and rarely be confronted by the worst ideological elements of this society. When I say insulated I mean living the kind of life that keeps as few of the decisions of the government from affecting you as possible. For me that means staying on the right side of the law. Avoiding the courts. Keeping a steady source of income. Staying informed. Surrounding myself with likeminded people. Etc. That's worked in my life for the last 50 years.

Sounds reasonable, and it has worked for me as well. However, things are changing in such a way that this will likely not be possible, should republicans take power again. I disagree, however with the point about avoiding the worst ideological elements of society. Then again, what I consider the worst might differ significantly from your perspective. For instance, there are 6 Catholics on the scotus. There decisions affect your life and mine, some more than others. If some of us are oppressed, are the rest really free? I think not.

I mention this because one of worst elements is religion, and the privileged place we give it in society. The Catholic church has sponsored and financed slavery, genocide, the oppression of women, and pedophile priests literally for centuries... and 6 members of this cult sit on the supreme court. One currently sits in the white house. How can I avoid this pernicious element white supremacy, which is in essence what it represents? The bible has historically been used to designate non-white peoples as less than human, thus "justifying" their genocide, enslavement and oppression.

Frankly, I would love to take your position. I fear, however, that history provides a guide to what is coming. What is coming is not what we have experience in the past 50 years. I have a friend who is almost 70. His mother is white, is father was black. He recalls having to sit in separate areas for lunch while shopping with his mom. This is something you and I have likely never experienced.

This is what republicans are trying to bring back. I, for one, would rather bust up a "colored" water fountain with a sledge hammer rather than drink from it. Although I am not a woman, I am appalled by the legislation curtailing the rights of women in Texas.

If some of us are not fully free, none of us are.

That's not what I have seen. They always report how the hurricanes, flooding and fires are going to be more frequent due to climate change and what we need to do to address this. They report on how we compare against other countries. I think it was Richard Engle who also had a special about that. When Trump rolled back he flood building codes in Texas that were put in place for new construction, that was heavily covered. Climate deniers, all that gets reported.
