Kamala Harris Tosses Rachel Maddow a Word Salad to Explain How She Didn't Say Pete Bootyjudge Couldn't be VP Because He Was Gay and Only Didn't Pick Him Because He Was Gay

"I never said that I didn't pick him because he was gay. I didn't pick him because we had such a short period of time, and it would be hard to win with this homo on the ticket."

Collin Rugg
@CollinRugg
NEW: Kamala Harris says she couldn't pick Pete Buttigieg as her running mate because he is gay and there was only 107 days.
Maddow: To say that he couldn't be on the ticket effectively because he was gay, it's hard to hear.
Harris: No no no that's not what I said... with the stakes being so high, it made me very sad, but I also realized it would be a real risk.
She denied the accusation then admitted it was true?

She also threw in a "Because Trump" for good measure. "Because Trump" is the all purpose filler/bonding agent that seals the cracks in the Democrat-Media Cult.

She tosses so many salads they should call her Caesar Waldorf.

She also called Trump a "tyrant" and "communist dictator" and calls again for a color revolution/whole-of-society war against him, encouraging "titans of industry" to oppose him.

Directly after attacking Trump as a "communist dictator," she endorses the communist dictator-in-waiting Zohran Mamdani.

39 I got the unedited version. Here it is;

Maddow: To say that he couldn't be on the ticket effectively because he was gay, it's hard to hear.

Harris: No no no that's not what I said... with the stakes being so high, it made me very sad, but I also realized he was an ass-pirate with a profound desire for another man’s buttocks. So getting people to think beyond their prejudices…that a fudge packing, butt bandit who spent most of his time looking at the back of another man’s head, could be a good VP, was a crack too wide to fill in such a short time.

Was it 2004 that the Dems had a Shyster lawyer running for president from the South? A guy who had sued a bunch of Obstetricians for not doing enough to save unborn babies who had then become a pol for the party that kills unborn babies.

45 The scary thing is, had she actually picked Shapiro instead of Walz, it would have been a much closer election. Shapiro could have won PA for her. Kamala is such a horrible candidate that Trump would still have won, but Shapiro would have been much more formidable on the ticket.

Why? Well, if the president was removed, died, or assassinated, Shapiro as VP becoming president could have been viewed as a reasonable option. Walz as VP? You replace a incoherent joker with a clown. No thanks.

2) Abortion

97 Ironically, this retarded whore was 100% right not to pick the anal felcher because it would be electoral poison. The Dums core constituencies of blacks and hispanics are not gonna vote for a silly flappy faggot. And yes, I know voters don't "vote" for the VP. But having a bad VP that nobody likes can hurt the top of the ticket.

I think this is one of those things where the pundits and "experts" tell us Veep candidates don't really matter. They'll back it up with data, they'll ask potential and/or real voters, does this matter? And voters will say "no," because everyone else says it's not supposed to matter.

But you know what? People lie.

I'm not saying Democrats had better options, but Walz was a disaster, Buttgig would have been a disaster, and if... IF they had a Joe Biden type (pre-dementia) to run with Cummala, she might have won.

Kamala was selected by Biden to make it impossible to force him out for senility, because nobody wanted Kamala as president. If President, she could pick her own people and oust all the puppet masters.

When Biden was forced out, he hung Kamala around their neck and as expected, she dragged them down with her.

133 And that, rachel, is why I instead trotted out the cheneys—americas beloved first family—during the last, most crucial month of my campaign.

Is anyone shocked by this? Black Democratic voters are very motivated to vote Democrat but even among more progressive groups in the Black community, gay and trans issues are still a touchy topic.

The joke here is that Harris is acting like Buttigieg would be a liability because he's gay, rather than being a liability because he's Buttigieg.

Walz I think actually did have some appeal to progressives, and the whole JD Vance is a weird guy who fucks couches thing was working. Then they decided to have him take a backseat to a Clinton style campaign that appealed to nobody but brunch libs who don't have the numbers to carry a nationwide election. Walz didn't sink Harris. Harris and the out of touch consultants who were put in the game during the 4th quarter did.

I can’t imagine why she lost, ignoring economic inequality and genocide, while making all the right moves like focusing on Buttigieg being too gay for America

Nobody gives a fuck if Pete is gay. It’s the least interesting thing about him.

134 "Maddow: To say that he couldn't be on the ticket effectively because he was gay, it's hard to hear.

Harris: No no no that's not what I said... with the stakes being so high, it made me very sad, but I also realized it would be a real risk."

Harris did not define the risk. How could she? She'd have to say no black or Hispanic men would vote for a ticket with Mayor Buttplug. Reverse intersectionality or something. I'm sure academics have coined a neutral-sounding term for blacks and Hispanics bigoted against gays.

And Mamdani in office is likely to be a shit show of epic proportions before Holchul has to face the voters in Nov. 2026.

177 as I'm reading Reddit, people there are mostly making some sense, in a mirror___ way: Buttigieg had problems in the black community, also he was useless as mayor and as Chief Transportation Ignorer.

I do take issue with this:
I can’t imagine why she lost, ignoring economic inequality and genocide, while making all the right moves like focusing on Buttigieg being too gay for America

Harris didn't ignore "genocide". In Leftspeak "genocide" means "Israel's existence". "Genocide" is why she didn't pick Shapiro, instead picking someone Somalis vote for. As for economic inequality, Democrats don't really care; she could talk up muh billionaires but then the Right would just counter-strike with Soros as we do.

178 I just want Republicans to start asking every time they are on TV:

You've said Trump is a dictator. History says dictators should be killed if they gain power. Why do you advocate for the assassination of Trump?

And when they dodge and try to go on about merely saying vote him out, respond, "you can't vote him out now--so the only reason to continue to call him that now is to advocate for his assassination."

182 The first problem was that, according to what Harris is saying, she had input into whom the VP candidate would be. This is the same woman whose critical thinking acumen rivals that of a ground slug.

Her career was not built on clever manipulation and impeccable timing. It was built on hand overs and hummers. She's not a strategic thinker in any fashion what-so-ever.

We saw this in spades on the campaign trail where her message to Philadelphia voters was diametrically opposed to Muslim voters in Michigan. She has no concept of strategy, tactics or design.

I know y’all don’t want to hear it, but Mayor Pete is really likable, and this is why. Beto seems like a jerk, but Pete is not. He is incompetent because he allows himself to be swayed by the person standing in front of him. Over and over and over again. He is reasonably intelligent, he does not run around like he has sugar in his step, and if I had to bet the real reason he wasn’t picked was not because he is gay, but because he would run circles around Kamala. Not exactly a hugely high bar, but if you have to find someone who won’t outshine her, you get…Tim Walz.

Holchul is damned if she does and damned if she doesn't.

And Mamdani in office is likely to be a shit show of epic proportions before Holchul has to face the voters in Nov. 2026.

Buttigieg is verrrrry calculated in his "likeability" -- like that utterly unthreatening "Sarah" McBride.

"Well, yes, there are some areas where we could do a better job," he'll allow of California's astronomically disastrous high-speed rail failure.

Listens solemnly to a question about Biden's dementia and sanctimoniously notes that "It's time to move on and look at the challenges that lie ahead." Anodyne all-purpose nothingness that requires no facts, just a sort of soothing suggestion that we not look too closely at these crimes and true threats to our democracy -- and to Pete's massive misjudgments, or lies, or whatever they were when he said Biden ran circles around him.

It’s a shame in the end. NY has so much potential and one party ruled has destroyed that. The legislature has no limits to their communist desires. It’s the most corrupt state in the country, and they have no value for liberty. None. They simply push through whatever subversion or subtraction from liberty they can think of and it’s back by a corrupt court system. The tax base is shrinking further to the point it’s a few big libs footing the bill and calling the shots. There is no democracy.

"Mr. Trump do you think a convicted felon should be able to become president?"

"Felon? Lets talk about felons. What about the felons she and her dopey boss who doesn't even know what's going on let pour over the border by the millions? Millions. You are not gonna have a country. You are not gonna have a country. If she gets in you are not going to have a country."

But since Kamala is an awful person which makes her even worse as a politician, I think to know Kamala is to loathe her. FWIW, Biden had his loyalists even to the end and due to a very long stint in Congress, had some buddies there willing to go along to get along. Don't see that with Kamala but way too far out.

It’s a shame in the end. NY has so much potential and one party ruled has destroyed that. The legislature has no limits to their communist desires. It’s the most corrupt state in the country, and they have no value for liberty. None. They simply push through whatever subversion or subtraction from liberty they can think of and it’s back by a corrupt court system. The tax base is shrinking further to the point it’s a few big libs footing the bill and calling the shots. There is no democracy.

Yup, they are extremely unreliable and prone to overheating and electrical problems. The reality is that every car they sell was rushed into production without proper development and testing. The company is always bleeding money and needs to get car on sale before they are ready. When they launched the Artura, the car they sold to the public was little more than a protoype -- and it was disastrously unrealiable as a result.

Also, why would that reflect upon Trump at all? Trump didn't screw up; the UN did. It's like staff saying, "Oh, look! We're incompetent! That Trump can't get to his spot or deliver his speech because we suck so bad. Ha! Ha! Trump is such a failure."

Um, no Nimrods. You screwed up. Trump (or we) trusted you. That might've been Trump's only mistake.

433 Mayor Pete was a terrible mayor of a small town. He was bought out of the presidential campaign so they could position Biden to ‘win’, and was made transportation secretary. He was notably terrible in that role in an administration filled with fuckups. Sure, he wasn’t put on the ticket because he was gay and not because he’s a dead ringer for Alfred E. Newman with a Howdy-Doody stare and a reputation for failure.
