Kamala isn't stupid. She talks in circles for a reason.
If you never commit to anything, you can't fail to deliver.
First off, I want to say that I’m going to lock these posts down for a bit. Meaning they are paywalled. Not because I’m trying to get everyone to pay, but I’m simply trying to discourage the trolls from commenting, thus ruining things for everyone else. And for me. Definitely for me. They’ve been in full force of late, and I need a respite!
So apologies if you don’t have access for a bit. I’ll unlock everything soon enough.
That said, I’ve been pondering Harris’ famous word salads of late. You know, the famous run on sentences that say nothing.
When you think about it, there is great significance to the passage of time . . .

My values have not changed . . . [also from the Bash interview.]
What can be unburdened by what has been . . . [from everywhere.]
It’s a lot of filler. Not a lot of meaning. Zero specifics. What is the significance to the passage of time? What aspirations? What new way forward? What have generations of Americans been fueled by? What values haven’t changed? How are we burdened and what will happen when we are unburdened? And who will do the unburdening? (Implied in the who will do it, is her of course. Her and her alone!)
Unlike many people, I don’t think she says these nonsense phrases because she’s stupid. She’s plenty smart.
