The four main MAGA attacks on Kamala Harris:
You forgot that she's a woman
The next one is that she is not a real woman if they are sticking to the GOP playbook.
Yup, just wait for one single unflattering image of herself that shows something mildly androgynous about her and we won't hear the end of it.
Well she is black after all... so that totally follows in MAGAtstan.
But does she have muscular arms? I hear that's proof that Michelle Obama is a man.
They're already there because she doesn't have children of her own
You're right, make that five.
6- Show us the testosterone test will be the new "show us the birth certificate"
seen lots of comments insinuating that she slept her way to the top, calling her Kamala "on her back/knees" Harris. I just reply with *citation needed and they always either don't respond or say "dO YouR ReSeArCh!"
I think they're referring to when in 1994 she was appointed to the California State Unemployment Insurance Appeals Board and the California Medical Assistance Commission by her boyfriend the then Speaker of the California Assembly, Willie Brown.
Here's the LA Times article from 30 years ago.
Nothing says sleeping to the top like prominent posts that I just heard about today such as the California State Unemployment Insurance Appeals Board and the California Medical Assistance Commission.
Oh I didn't make a judgement on it, just elaborating on where the belief stems from.
Although I believe the issue(?) is that those are paid positions. Of course, she might've genuinely been the best person for those roles.
Oh, I wasn't criticizing you, I was criticizing the people that are suggesting she slept her way to the top. I wouldn't be overly concerned about the pay issue, both positions are in the $50k range, so not exactly the stuff of corruption.
If you aren’t white and angry and paranoid, MAGA has no use for you, so that tracks.
