Last weekend an inconvenient truth emerged for Kamala Harris’s campaign and the left as a whole: They have a one-man problem.
Friends don’t like him at all. And the current veep is losing ground with black male voters – like Trump is increasingly appealing to the demographic He traditionally leans toward Democrat.
According to the New York Times-Siena Poll, Trump has an 11-point lead over Harris among men.
And three weeks before Election Day, the campaign and its surrogates have introduced the Hail Mary or “Our Father” to appeal to the non-fair sex.
Incredibly, their strategy for getting people to flock to an innocent presidential candidate is to belittle him, call him a misogynist, and reduce him to Carhart’s caricatures.
It was as if they saw the loss of JD Vance’s horrific “childless cat lady” comments From 2021 and said, hold my Bud Light.
On Thursday, Barack Obama scolded a group of black people in Pittsburgh They lack “energy” For Harris.
“I have a problem with it because – because part of it makes me think, and I’m talking straight to men now, part of it makes me think like, well, you don’t feel like doing that. Having a woman as president,” he said.
Not surprisingly, this there was a lot of reactionAlthough I can’t imagine that “The View” host Sunny Hostin smoothed things over by saying on Monday, “We have to reach out to those ridiculous, crazy black people who voted for Trump.”
Good.
on weekends Tim Walz went pheasant hunting Which led to unfortunate comparisons to Elmer Fudd and accusations of LARPing.
And this push was not without amusement – not intentionally. friday morning, Hilarious “Man Enough” Ad Dropped online. Although this is not an official Harris/Walz ad, it was created by a group of creative people who were trying to get them elected.
The ad features various male actors dressed in flannel, jeans and gym clothes, one of whom is standing in the back of a pickup truck and looking more handsome and suave than a blue-collar grunt. All the actors took turns bragging about their conservative sibling.
He was man enough to cook rare steak, drink double barrel bourbon, and fix carburetors.
One actor declared that he was “man enough to lift 500 pounds and cut the braids out of my daughter’s hair.”
Issue? They were also man enough to support a woman for president.
“I love women. And I’m man enough to help them win,” one declared.
It was so frustrating and infuriating that I was curious whether the director, a guy named Jacob Reed, had actually ever met anyone in the woods who didn’t have an NPR tote.
Although it all peaked last week, this disconnect didn’t just fall from the coconut tree.
For much of the last decade, the left, and all the cultural institutions it controls, have been marginalizing men, pushing the idea that traditional masculinity is toxic with mottos like “men are trash and “the future is women.” ” (All while being unable to even define a woman).
Men are lagging behind in education and wages. The Harris campaign’s solution was to focus solely on abortion and assume that girls could make their way through the campaign.
To appeal to the men, they chose Walz, who was promoted as being all guns, football and military service, but had no qualms about pulling a Neanderthal. He was a feminist. he has also come out A serial liar.
They gave us “wife guy” Doug Emhoff, who, like Jen Psaki said, “Reshaped the notion of masculinity.He claims this is despite him beating up his grandmother and allegedly slapping a girlfriend The camp denied,
These urban slickers have also attempted to reclaim the camo hat as rural red-blooded Americans.
They increased their male support by creating different Zoom calls like “white dude for harris Where celebs like Jeff Bridges and Mark Ruffalo came together to enjoy how great it would be to pick a woman. On that call, singer Josh Groban talked about his white male privilege.
This elite class was propagating its own glorified identity politics, and giving nothing to men across the country struggling to put food on their tables and support their families. (Though Republicans, it should be noted, are struggling to create a cohesive message in the post-Roe era).
The problem is that society has stopped listening to men and their concerns. They were asked to fit into a neat supporting box so that women could take the lead. Then he was called a mansplainer.
The left behaves like it needs to be reeducated and rebranded, not engaged.
And they may have to suffer the consequences of this in the elections.
