Kamala Harris is an 'empty suit' and campaign handlers are worried, says Tulsi Gabbard
2024-08-16
[FoxNews] While Kamala Harris' campaign works to rebrand the VP as the Democratic presidential candidate, critics are voicing concern over her record on the border, as well as her career as a prosecutor. On "America's Newsroom" on Thursday, former Democratic Hawaii Rep. Tulsi Gabbard labeled Harris an "empty suit," arguing her campaign "handlers" are worried about what will happen if she has to explain her policy positions.

TULSI GABBARD: I think she revealed in that [July 2019] debate the same thing that I think her campaign handlers are worried about right now... Kamala Harris is an empty suit. They are trying to create this new version of Kamala Harris to match what their pollsters are telling them, so she can say whatever she needs to say to try to win over voters, which is the most offensive thing, I think, because they think we're so stupid as to forget what her record actually is. In 2019, very simply, I confronted her with her hypocrisy of how what she said was very different than what she actually did, and she had no answer for it. She had no explanation. She didn't even try to own or justify what her actions were. And that's going to be the key thing here for voters as we head into this election is Kamala Harris will say whatever she thinks she needs to say. We have to pay attention to her actions, because on every single major issue, you will see that same kind of hypocrisy that I pointed out in 2019 where she'll say one thing, but her record tells a very, very different story.

#4  Some thought Obama was an 'empty suit', but he got elected twice three times.

#3  with the information industry dominated by operatives of the Democratic party, the empty suit strategy might win

in any event, as I recall, Harris did reasonably well debating Pence back in 2000; of course she didn't have to defend the Biden admin's record back then

#1  How is this a problem with an electorate containing around 300 million 'empty voters'?
