This upcoming US Presidential elections will be historic. Not only because we have on one side, a non WASP (White Anglo Saxon Protestant) female candidate on one side, whose parents are both immigrants to the US. This in itself is historic enough. We are so proud of Vice President Kamala Harris for even making it to becoming Vice President of the USA. She is a beacon of light to all immigrants, particularly those from the Caribbean, whether you are Jamaican, Bahamian, Bajan or from Martinique or Guadeloupe. We are behind her no matter what.
Then, we have on the other hand, a former president in Donald Trump, who led a one term filled with media made controversies for the most part, but who also had his own fair share of scandals that would make Hugh Heffner blush. More importantly, Trump was indicted on several felony charges. And he still won the Republican primaries.
This is where we start to get granular on the matter. Fact is, Harris speaks like an incompetent nitwit repeating talking points and who clearly did not go through any rigorous vetting to get to where she is now, on the precipice of becoming the leader of the free world. She clearly is not ready to take on the job of President of the USA. Not only that, she has her own fair share of scandals and character flaws that people should shun and reject out of hand as dangerous and unsuitable for someone looking for the highest public office.
One the other hand, you have Trump, who has been to the top before. In addition, he built a billion-dollar empire off of his guile and cunning. He is not incompetent. In addition, he has tapped into a sentiment with the American people that Harris simply has not. Bottom line.
We won’t be shocked if it isn’t a total blowout landslide for Trump. And it won’t be about Harris being a black female candidate. No. It is because she is not ready for that job, at any level and Americans will understand that.
