Kamala Harris told the media she was going to try to troll former President Donald Trump at the Alabama-Georgia game on Saturday.
But the effort failed miserably and just showed how desperate she was.
Her campaign told the media that they were going to have a small plane fly over Tuscaloosa during the game at Bryant-Denny Stadium with a banner that said, “Trump’s Punting on 2nd Debate.”
Except it didn’t come off; it was a complete failure. It was nowhere to be seen during the game.
According to the New York Times, they were told by the Harris campaign that they couldn’t do it because of “weather.”
It was typical Kamala — all talk and no result.
The campaign also allegedly ran an ad on television claiming, “Winners never back down from a challenge,” the ad’s narrator says. “Champions know it’s any time, any place. But losers, they whine and waffle and take their ball home.”
Except, of course, the problem with that was Trump already did two debates: He already did a CNN debate during which he decimated Joe Biden so badly, where Biden’s cognitive decline was on display for the whole world, the Democrats had to “attack democracy” and swap him out for Kamala. Trump doesn’t have to do a third debate. He offered one to Harris on Fox and she turned that down.

So much for “any time, any place.” Apparently that doesn’t mean any network that she thinks might not have helpful moderators for her. Looks like Kamala was doing a lot of projection there and was the “loser” of whom she spoke. She was the one ducking debates.
Harris just made herself look silly and desperate. She probably couldn’t get all of her ridiculous word salad on a banner. If you’re winning, you don’t have to play such games to try to get attention.
Then too, she failed to understand the people to whom she was trying to appeal, much as she fails to understand most Americans.
Instead, Trump was wildly cheered when he was introduced at the game.

He also had fun tossing out chicken tenders and interacting with the crowd that loved it and chanted “USA, USA!”

Guess that didn’t quite work out like Harris planned. Indeed, it just focused more attention on her failure to debate and on Trump being embraced at the stadium.
Harris was offered a second debate on Fox and declined.
But CNN should get two debates. Check.
There’s a reason why the Harris campaign wants this debate so badly. https://t.co/FPecoAIbwQ

Maybe Trump should hire her team for his campaign since they seem to be helping him.
