Where’s Kamala?
So far in what passes for Kamala’s campaign it’s been like that. She’s spent the majority of it dodging the press. She’s made it clear that she’s going to do whatever it takes to not give interviews or hold press conferences, with a couple of carefully curated and prerecorded ones with allied media outlets being as close to an exception as it’s likely to get. It’s so overt and extreme that even staunchly Democrat outlets are complaining about it, albeit with very soft and almost apologetic voices.
And yes, her and her staff have shown that they’re more than willing to take extreme measures to make sure that the press keeps their distance from her. She even pulled out – or was pulled out by her handlers – of giving the commencement address at the most Left-wing, Democrat college, UC Berkeley, giving the excuse that they were currently in a labor dispute with the local chapter of the AFSCME union, which had called for a speaker boycott.
Babylon Bee or not, the fact that Kamala’s only interview – and a carefully scripted and curated on at that – was held jointly with Tim Walz didn’t go over very well with some feminists and some Blacks, especially Black women. They were offended by the appearance of her needing to have a White man there to lean on if needed.
So yeah; where’s Kamala? The answer is wherever the press isn’t. And, as certain sorts in the Lamestream Media claim, that’s a good thing for her campaign. Read whatever you like into that statement.
