It’s still early in the process, but it appears that the mainstream media has chosen its preferred candidate to take on Donald Trump in the 2020 primary. Reporters from several news outlets, including CNN and NBC, took Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA) shopping for campaign clothes and gleefully shared the photos and videos on Twitter.
Remember how outraged the media was when Sarah Palin shopped for a campaign wardrobe in 2008? Yeah, that same standard doesn’t apply when the candidate is a Democrat.
Given the media’s fawning over Harris as the inevitable 2020 replacement for Donald Trump, it’s interesting to note that Kamala Harris’ own father has now denounced her campaign.
Appearing on a radio show this month, Kamala Harris was asked if she ever smoked marijuana. “Half my family is Jamaican,” she replied. “Are you kidding?” She then went on to regale the host with stories of how she smoked pot and did indeed inhale while she was in college. Needless to say, her Jamaican father was unimpressed.
Donald Harris is a professor of economics at Stanford University. He earned his degree from Berkeley after immigrating to the US in the 1960s, so he hardly comes across as some right-winger in a MAGA hat. After he heard his daughter’s interview and her pride in smoking dope, he had some not so nice things to say about his offspring.
Watch Kamala Harris’ dad turn on her and what he says about her campaign for 2020.
