Al Sharpton Will Demand Biden Give Kamala More Power
Al Sharpton Will Demand Biden Give Kamala More Power
By Daniel Greenfield
Kamala Harris has been an enormous success so far and considering her political acumen in dropping out of the presidential primaries before a single state voted, and being named VP as a safeguard against Democrats forcing Biden to leave office after he gropes one woman too many during a rambling word salad, she should get more responsibility.
Al Sharpton, a vicious racist, whose sole achievement is convincing Democrats to kiss his ring despite his horrifying history, is going to tell Biden to give Kamala power. More power.
Rev. Al Sharpton: I want to see her be used more effectively, and I think her being in charge of voting was important, but I question her other assignments. You might remember, when Joe Biden said that he was going to appoint a woman to run with him and appoint a Black woman to the Supreme Court, I challenged him and said, “Why don’t you have a Black woman run like Stacey (Abrams) or Kamala?” and I had him on my MSNBC show and confronted him. So in many ways, we were the ones who stood up for her to be in that position and we want her to have a strong position, not marginal positions. I think that he did the right thing giving her voting, but I think he should continue to give her more positions of power.
Biden gave her the border crisis. How did that work out?
RAS: I would like the president to put her in charge of the voting package and criminal justice. Also, he needs to put Kamala at the forefront of the George Floyd bill that he promised to get through. She was a prosecutor and a state attorney general, so she knows the criminal justice system and understands both sides. She is also a Black woman in the time of Breonna Taylor and other Black women who have suffered racism, so I think that she should have those assignments and be able to get certain things to Congress.
Has it occurred to Al that Kamala might not want those assignments?
She’s been keeping a deliberately low profile after her poll numbers went radioactive and her attempts to handle her overstuffed portfolio backfired. And with Biden’s own poll numbers being toxic due to the state of the country, Kamala’s plan is to convince Americans to forget that she even exists allowing her to run in 2024 as an insurgent rather than an incumbent. Or maybe she just decided to go on vacation.
Either way she’s keeping a low profile and nothing undermines her quite like an 80s leftover demanding that she get more power.
