The presidential campaign of Kamala Harris and Tim Walz is looking more and more like the Energizer Bunny on crack cocaine as the election approaches; It’s getting dumber and dumber. In her latest example of doubling down on stupidity, Kamala Harris is reportedly coming to Texas for a rally with Colin Allred, who is engaged in a quixotic attempt to unseat Texas Republican Senator Ted Cruz.
Of course, Republicans in Texas aren’t keen on the idea. But Maybe they should be.
More than a dozen Texas Republicans, from the governor to members of the U.S. House of Representatives criticized Vice President Kamala Harris’ planned visit to the border state on Friday, telling Fox News Digital the visit was “one of the stupidest political decisions” they had ever seen.
“’Border Czar’ Kamala Harris can travel all the way to Houston, where Jocelyn Nungaray was killed by Tren de Aragua gang members who let her into the country, but she doesn’t bother to visit or even visit Jocelyn’s family to say her name. Kamala.” “Harris and her open borders policies have allowed over 11 million illegal immigrants and perilous criminals like TdA into our country, putting the lives of every American at risk,” Texas Governor Greg Abbott told Fox News Digital .
This is a fair and perceptive criticism, and it directly expresses what makes this move so stupid; Just days before the election, with the Trump/Vance campaign pulling out a lead in every contested national poll, Kamala Harris effectively returns to the scene of the crime. Texas and all border states are the sites of Kamala Harris’ greatest failure, the open, running wound that is our southern border. Why should she be prevented from reminding American voters of this by coming to Texas?
As Sun Tzu said: If your opponent makes a mistake, don’t interfere.
Texas Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick knows the deal.
“Kamala Harris coming to Texas for a rally is one of them stupidest political decisions I’ve ever seen it. You and Colin Allred won’t win in Texas. I’m glad she’s spending the day in Texas instead of campaigning in a swing state with just days left until the election. I hope she stays longer. “Donald Trump will be the next president because voters are tired of the Harris-Biden regime and the chaos it has wrought,” Patrick said.

Admittedly, this will actually draw even more unwelcome attention to their failure in this district. But could this be a sign of something more sedate? While we applaud the Republicans who “pounce” on this – if Republican politicians pounced as often as they are accused of, the entire Republican Party would have quadriceps of steel – this apparent mistake on Kamala Harris’s part might be more of an admission than an admission a foul.
At this point in the campaign, one would expect candidates on both sides to be laser-focused on the battleground states. Admittedly, Trump is moving further away, but he is ahead, and his Paths to 270 electoral votes are more numerous than Harris’s, if current polls are to be believed. Could Harris’ sudden visit to Texas serve to support a Democratic candidate? who losesbe an admission of something more? Could the Harris campaign’s internal numbers look so bad that it’s just trying to save as many down-ticket races as possible?
I’m a bit skeptical about that. Firstly, this is not a race she can easily save. Second, I doubt she or her campaign staff are intelligent enough to focus on saving as much as possible; I have the impression that they will go down in the fight for the top spot.
No, I’m assuming this is just another Kamala Harris campaign rally: one stupid idea in a long, long line of stupid ideas.
