Who’s Kamala Harris Turning to About Her Falling Poll Numbers? Hillary Clinton.

Because that makes a lot of sense.

There’s no denying Kamala Harris is not doing well in the polls. At all. It’s not exactly unsurprising, considering how the administration has performed as of late. When Joe Biden and the Democratic party abandon almost literally every single thing they spent the entirety of 2020 campaigning on, disaster will follow and it’s frankly what they deserve. That being said, for someone who has Presidential ambitions in the very near future and was picked by the Democratic establishment and donor class to carry the party forward, poll numbers in the 30s are going to be concerning to say the least. Evidently, Vice President Harris is coming up with explanations and seeking advice in order to get her political future back on track.

Geoff Earle with The Daily Mail writes:

“Kamala Harris has told her inner circle she would get better press coverage if she was one of her 48 white, male predecessors and has turned to Hillary Clinton for advice in the face of low approval ratings, according to a new report on Thursday.

And she has concluded she would get better treatment in the media if she were white and male like all of her predecessors, telling her allies as much.
