Is Kamala's Glock Her Dukakis Tank Moment?

Original Article

Many of us are old enough to remember Mike Dukakis's disastrous outing in a tank during the 1988 campaign, which is still to this day generally regarded as the big turning point that led to Dukakis losing the election. He looked ridiculous, it was patently a campaign stunt, and he paid the price for it.Over at RealClearPolitics, scribe Shane Harris has made the interesting speculation that Kamala Harris' "Glock moment" may well be the same kind of misstep. But there's one big difference. Vice President Kamala Harris’ comments about owning a “Glock” are proving to be,

No conservative gun person is going to accept that the cackler is now a friend of firearms. Ironically, she might actually lose some of her liberal supporters by bragging that she owns a frightening instrument of death.

90%+ probability she lied and doesn't have a gun at all. Liar, liar, pantsuit on fire.

Will it be a Dukakis moment? No, because the mainstream media will not cover anything that might embarrass her.

My guess - someone told her that her SS protectors carry Glocks and that’s the only reason she even knows the name.

I might be open to believing her if she had specified the gun the way gun owners refer to them. Like maybe, "Yes, a Glock 9 millimeter" or "a Glock Ten, its weight is a little less than a 45, but it's got more than enough stopping power for personal protection." Her answer, including the tone of voice and pace of pauses, practically reeks of dishonesty.

Show us your Glock. Where do you keep it? Have you fired it in the last five years? Can you demonstrate loading and firing it safely? Can you hit a barn, from inside the barn?

If only Warren Zevon were still alive - Kamala's got a Glock, Humming Root Boy Slim and the Sex Change Band, In a world of whispers, she takes a stand, With polyvinylchloride gripped tight in her hand. Shadows cast by the power she’s shown, But she’s Obama’s little puppet, with no voice of her own.

What's worse, according to the author, she also made a comment about "flipping off the safety;" however, Glocks, like most striker fired handguns, don't have a frame or slide mounted manual safety like the Baretta 92 series, many Colt autoloaders, and all 1911 style .45s. It has a tiny "trigger safety" that must be depressed by the trigger finger, prior to squeezing off a round. She probably stands in front of a mirror, holding her "finger gun" sideways, like her gangbanger friends, cackling like a common loon.

Democrat presidential nominee Kamala Harris and her running mate Tim Walz are trying to paint themselves as "change agents," which is a pretty tough trick given that Harris is in power now. Not only has she not solved the problems or produced results for the American people, but she's actively made the situation worse in regard to inflation and illegal immigration by doing away with the security former President Donald Trump had in place at the border and voting for more spending that helped drive up prices.But then when she was asked on "The View" what she would have done differently from Joe Biden, she couldn't even give an answer.

Billionaire investor Bill Ackman ripped into the Biden-Harris administration Friday, posting to X (formerly known as Twitter) 33 “catalysts” for his “losing total confidence” in the Democratic Party. Ackman formally endorsed Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump hours after the former president survived an assassination attempt at a July 13 rally in Butler, Pennsylvania. Many of Ackman’s friends and his family were “surprised” by the endorsement, he wrote on X, taking the opportunity to dismiss claims he wanted financial benefits or a role in a potential Trump administration.

Black voters in the U.S. have shifted support away from Democrats from 2016 to 2024, the most recent New York Times/Siena Poll shows. During the 2016 election, only 7% of black voters favored Republicans, which is a stark contrast to recent 2024 polling results, which show support for Republicans among black voters rose to 15%, according to The New York Times. Vice President and Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris grabbed 75% of support from black voters, however, former President and Republican Presidential nominee Donald Trump reached 16%, which is a staggering 9% increase from 2020, according to September data from the Howard University Initiative on Public Opinion.

President Trump’s running mate, Senator J.D.

The paper released footage of the interview on Friday, and what followed was yet another mastery of the failing corporate media by Vance. While the discussion was ostensibly about the current presidential campaign, ‘reporter’ Lulu Garcia-Navarro determined to force Vance to answer whether Trump ”lost’ the 2020 presidential election to create chaos within the Trump campaign and fracture Vance’s relationship with the 45th president.

Presidential campaigns are, to a large degree, about telling stories. Kamala Harris is profoundly bad at telling stories. But to watch her whirlwind press tour this week — a tour that only hit sympathetic outlets — was to be told that, despite our own eyes and ears, she is the smartest, strongest, most capable leader since Lincoln. Not to mention a true champion of women – an assertion untrammeled by those dark allegations against her husband, Doug Emhoff. Kamala's media blitzkrieg began on Sunday, with an appearance on Alex Cooper's sex-centric podcast 'Call Her Daddy'.

Just the other day, Tim Walz stated explicitly that America needs to end the Electoral College. Although the campaign quickly walked this back, the reality is that he was speaking for most Democrats. That’s why it’s important for us to understand why the Electoral College matters and should continue. Equality under the law is the bulwark of any free democratic nation that operates under the rule of law and values liberty and justice for all. This includes making the value of votes as equal as possible across a vast country. The U.S. Constitution’s Framers brought this concept as close to perfection as possible.

As we reported, Vogue Magazine came out with a fawning cover Friday featuring Kamala Harris with the cringe headline, “KAMALA HARRIS, THE CANDIDATE FOR OUR TIMES.” She’s certainly a candidate of the times, but definitely not one for the times, as she has proven over and over. Showing once again just how out of touch she is, Kamala sat for the photo shoot on Oct.7, the one-year anniversary of the savage Hamas terrorist attack on Israel. Seriously? Meanwhile, as our Teri Christoph points out, the glamour puff-piece comes out even as bodies are still being recovered in the wake of Hurricanes Helene and Milton. This is leadership?
