Can a vice president ever be truly ready to assume the presidency without proper preparation?

This is the gripping question we tackle as we paint a vivid scenario set in the near future, where President Joe Biden's health forces his closest advisors, and the First Lady, into a crisis of leadership. We draw intriguing parallels with historical cases, particularly Harry Truman's sudden ascent to power, questioning if liberal historians have overstretched the narrative of his readiness. Referencing the insightful book "Accent to Power," we provide a thought-provoking critique on political maneuvers and the heavy burdens of leadership during tumultuous times.

Shifting gears, we delve into the intense realm of immigration and border security under Vice President Kamala Harris's purview. Discover the pressure and scrutiny she faced as President Biden charged her with tackling this critical issue, despite her limited background.  From the book, Amateur Hour by Charlie Spiering we take an investigative deep dive with a keen "detective's eye" for detail, portraying Kamala Harris amidst ambition and controversy.

Key Points from the Episode:

  • We explore Kamala Harris's approach to addressing the root causes of migration and the political backlash that followed. 
  • Amateur Hour combines critical and humorous elements, emphasizing Harris's perceived incompetence and challenges within the political landscape.
  • We learn from the book sheds many of the aspects of Harris's political journey which often overlooked by mainstream narratives, making it an intriguing read for political enthusiasts and completing the argument that she was selected NOT because of merit but because of identity politics.

Welcome to the Theory to Action podcast, where we examine the timeless treasures of wisdom from the great books in less time, to help you take action immediately and ultimately to create and lead a flourishing life.

00:00:20.807 --> 00:00:24.850
Now here's your host, david Kaiser.

00:00:30.440 --> 00:00:34.600
Hello, I am David and welcome back to another Mojo Minute.

00:00:34.600 --> 00:00:39.845
As is our custom, let's begin with our first pull quote.

00:00:39.845 --> 00:00:42.168
The place Washington DC.

00:00:42.168 --> 00:00:51.597
The time the near future Nearer than you think.

00:00:51.597 --> 00:01:03.392
Chief of Staff Jeff Zents and Counselor Steve Reschetti, senior Advisor Mike Donilon and Senior Advisor Anita Dunn gather in the White House to discuss their options with First Lady Jill Biden.

00:01:03.392 --> 00:01:08.061
Age and infirmity have finally caught up with her husband.

00:01:08.061 --> 00:01:14.884
Despite every effort by family and staff to prop up the aging president, they can no longer hide the truth.

00:01:14.884 --> 00:01:18.611
President Joe Biden's time in office is over.

00:01:18.611 --> 00:01:24.787
As they wait for everyone to assemble, they start revisiting how they arrived at this moment.

00:01:24.787 --> 00:01:28.614
Why did they push for him to run for re-election?

00:01:28.614 --> 00:01:33.447
Did they really think he could make it another four years?

00:01:33.468 --> 00:01:34.915
The signs of decline were already there.

00:01:34.915 --> 00:01:37.765
Staffers found him vacant and listless.

00:01:37.765 --> 00:01:43.165
While attempting to brief him ahead of public events, they created note cards.

00:01:43.165 --> 00:01:52.888
You take your seat, you give brief comments, you depart the instructions, read the teleprompter.

00:01:52.888 --> 00:01:59.194
Speeches grew shorter and simpler and interactions with the public and even supporters were dialed back.

00:01:59.194 --> 00:02:02.823
Long stretches of rest were carved out of his schedule.

00:02:02.823 --> 00:02:04.487
The press was shut out.

00:02:04.487 --> 00:02:07.213
To limit moments of embarrassment.

00:02:07.213 --> 00:02:09.586
There was only so much they could do.

00:02:09.586 --> 00:02:14.060
The frequent coughing could no longer be stifled with a few cough drops.

00:02:14.060 --> 00:02:18.632
The stiffness grew more apparent as he walked to and from the podium.

00:02:18.632 --> 00:02:24.992
He lashed out angrily when questioned by the press and appeared lost and confused while aides directed him.

00:02:24.992 --> 00:02:36.409
The world was watching as the leader of the free world was repeatedly stumbling, falling on the stairs while boarding Air Force One, tipping over on his bicycle and tripping and falling on stage.

00:02:37.501 --> 00:02:41.391
Why did his trusted circle believe he could do it again?

00:02:41.391 --> 00:02:43.645
Because they wanted to.

00:02:43.645 --> 00:02:47.962
He was, after all, the only one who defeated former President Donald Trump.

00:02:47.962 --> 00:02:53.352
They thought, hoped he could pull it off once more.

00:02:53.352 --> 00:02:59.852
Biden was passionate about driving Trump and his entire political movement into the dustbin of history.

00:02:59.852 --> 00:03:03.787
Defeat Trump, defend democracy and restore the soul of the nation.

00:03:03.787 --> 00:03:08.194
That was all part of why they pushed the president to keep going.

00:03:08.194 --> 00:03:11.930
But deep down they knew the real reason he had to run again.

00:03:13.159 --> 00:03:17.711
Vice President Kamala Harris was not up to the job.

00:03:17.711 --> 00:03:22.590
How captivating was that opening of a book.

00:03:22.590 --> 00:03:28.592
It was written and published in January of 2024.

00:03:28.592 --> 00:03:35.092
So the events just described could almost be spot on.

00:03:35.092 --> 00:03:44.211
Will we ever get the real scoop of what happened to Joe Biden and the silent coup from Nancy Pelosi and possibly Barack Obama.

00:03:44.211 --> 00:03:59.149
News articles are coming out drip by drip by drip and we will have a real reporter and historian who will step up and write that tale of what has all the markings of a Greek strategy.

00:03:59.149 --> 00:04:11.235
Now this book started off so good and I'm not done with it, but I'm crushing it on Audible in the title because you'll love it.

00:04:11.235 --> 00:04:15.205
Amateur Hour by Charlie Spearing.

00:04:15.205 --> 00:04:18.612
Kamala Harris in the White House.

00:04:18.612 --> 00:04:20.144
Let's go back to the book.

00:04:20.144 --> 00:04:26.293
They should have known, realized that this was coming.

00:04:27.154 --> 00:04:35.353
In modern history, many vice presidents have stepped in and taken power suddenly in cases of ill health or a national tragedy or near misses.

00:04:35.353 --> 00:04:39.627
William McKinley's assassination elevated Teddy Roosevelt.

00:04:39.627 --> 00:04:41.350
Woodrow Wilson had a stroke.

00:04:41.350 --> 00:04:44.064
Dwight Eisenhower had a heart attack.

00:04:44.064 --> 00:04:50.572
Vice President Lyndon Johnson was sworn in as president just hours after President John F Kennedy was murdered.

00:04:50.572 --> 00:04:57.629
Vice President Gerald Ford took office after President Richard Nixon resigned in disgrace.

00:04:57.629 --> 00:05:02.526
Ronald Reagan came within an inch of losing his life in 1981.

00:05:02.526 --> 00:05:17.786
Not since President Franklin Delano Roosevelt died at the age of 63 had a president died in office after struggling with health problems, requiring, in FDR's case, vice President Harry S Truman to replace him.

00:05:18.807 --> 00:05:37.423
Truman was ready and experienced, served as a senator for Missouri for 10 years before he was elected as vice president, heir apparent to the aging Roosevelt, as Democrats felt confident running him for his historic fourth term.

00:05:37.423 --> 00:05:40.105
And let's stop there.

00:05:40.105 --> 00:05:52.916
We now know that Harry Truman was in fact not ready and not experienced, contrary to what most liberal historians have taught us for the last 50 years.

00:05:52.916 --> 00:05:59.826
So it's a little surprise when Charlie wrote this in the book.

00:05:59.826 --> 00:06:03.971
Certainly just be caught up with trying to read up on certain parts of history.

00:06:03.971 --> 00:06:10.476
And he picked up most of this repetitive history from liberal liberal historians.

00:06:10.476 --> 00:06:22.173
I just finished a very good book, accent to Power, that pretty much documents how unready and how unexperienced Truman was on the world stage.

00:06:22.901 --> 00:06:53.692
The reason he wasn't ready in anything dealing with FDR is because, frankly, he was a last-minute compromise to FDR, because the current vice president in the fall of 1944 was Henry Wallace, an almost certain communist, and the power brokers behind the Democratic Party at the time knew that FDR, if he ran, if FDR ran again with Wallace on the ticket, he would lose big time.

00:06:53.692 --> 00:07:07.773
The country had known FDR had been becoming more and more and more ill each and every day throughout 1943 and most of 1944.

00:07:07.773 --> 00:07:12.089
And that the VP most eventually would have to step in.

00:07:12.089 --> 00:07:21.512
So those power brokers demoted Vice President Henry Wallace, of which FDR made him Secretary of Commerce in 1945.

00:07:21.512 --> 00:07:32.132
Now Wallace would later be dismissed by the Truman administration for too many disagreements with the cabinet, mainly over Truman's hardline stance towards the Soviets.

00:07:32.132 --> 00:07:43.708
And then, ultimately, wallace would run for president on the progressive ticket in 1948, in which he advocated closer cooperation with the Soviets.

00:07:43.708 --> 00:07:48.274
Now he was beaten badly, so no one remembers his name.

00:07:48.855 --> 00:07:49.755
Now back to Truman.

00:07:49.755 --> 00:07:57.218
They elevated Harry Truman into the vice president position coming out of the convention in the summer of 1944.

00:07:57.218 --> 00:08:03.413
The problem was, when FDR died, truman was not briefed on anything.

00:08:03.413 --> 00:08:07.930
In fact he had very little interaction at all with the president.

00:08:07.930 --> 00:08:12.951
The book Accent to Power describes just how little the interaction was.

00:08:12.951 --> 00:08:23.314
A meager 82 days before FDR passed is what Harry Truman was on the job as vice president.

00:08:23.314 --> 00:08:27.732
Now, could Harry Truman have been preparing for that faithful day?

00:08:27.732 --> 00:08:35.813
Yes, but the sheer hubris and FDR's dominating personality never allowed for that.

00:08:35.813 --> 00:08:43.349
I highly recommend this book for those who want to know more about this particular period in US history, because it's quite fascinating.

00:08:43.349 --> 00:08:47.931
Let's go back to the book about Kamala Harris.

00:08:49.940 --> 00:09:06.676
Vice President Kamala Harris's many struggles and mistakes during her first years in office were top of mind the thin-skinned outrage, perceived grievances around every corner, the staff bullying and endless turnover.

00:09:06.676 --> 00:09:13.869
The mockery, the refusal to be a team player, a brain stroke away from the presidency.

00:09:13.869 --> 00:09:21.860
Harris appeared artificial on stage, never willing to engage or risk her brand, and constantly playing defense.

00:09:21.860 --> 00:09:25.807
Engage or risk her brand and constantly playing defense.

00:09:25.807 --> 00:09:27.071
Her speeches lacked conviction and spiraled into word salads.

00:09:27.071 --> 00:09:30.457
Tough questions were answered with laughter and dismissal.

00:09:30.457 --> 00:09:38.490
Harris barely suppressed her impatience and disdain for the president, despite reading platitudes from the teleprompter.

00:09:39.472 --> 00:09:46.352
After less than four years in the Senate, she was not a dealmaker, a consensus builder or even a conduit to the activist.

00:09:46.352 --> 00:09:56.541
Her presidential campaign, where she launched a bitter but ineffective attack on Biden during one of the debates, was a notorious flop.

00:09:56.541 --> 00:10:02.028
Instead of playing dutiful backup to the president, harris was trying to write her own political narrative.

00:10:02.028 --> 00:10:05.711
Instead of playing dutiful backup to the president, harris was trying to write her own political narrative according to her roles.

00:10:05.711 --> 00:10:15.119
She was in no position to take over for Biden and lead the Democratic Party into the future, but there was no way the Biden team could replace her on the ticket in 2024.

00:10:15.119 --> 00:10:18.302
That would be omitting a huge mistake.

00:10:18.302 --> 00:10:21.908
It's a mistake that cannot be fixed.

00:10:21.908 --> 00:10:28.735
As Harris prepares to take the oath of office, biden's aides realize that their power to manipulate the future is gone.

00:10:28.735 --> 00:10:34.937
They will be forced out of the White House and President Kamala Harris will take control.

00:10:34.937 --> 00:10:40.789
So, as you can tell, this actually did not happen.

00:10:40.789 --> 00:10:58.380
But boy oh boy, does Charlie Spearing almost nail it Exactly, very close to what could have been and perhaps very close to what actually did happen as we sit here in the middle of August 2024 during the DNC convention.

00:10:59.885 --> 00:11:04.605
Again, this book is Amateur Hourala harris in the white house by charlie spearing.

00:11:04.605 --> 00:11:13.326
It was published in january 2024 and, like I said, charlie almost nailed what actually happened.

00:11:13.326 --> 00:11:21.355
He could have almost perfectly predicted the future when this book was published, way back in January of 2024.

00:11:21.355 --> 00:11:40.318
Nevertheless, for those that cannot fathom the word salads the utter navel gazing in the radical, radical nature of the Democrats presidential candidate Kamala Harris, who will speak tonight, as we are recording this for Thursday's upload.

00:11:40.318 --> 00:11:46.649
She will speak tonight in perfectly scripted teleprompter words, I almost guarantee it.

00:11:46.649 --> 00:11:55.917
And for all that, I offer you this book Amateur Hour because this will truly become amateur hour for the whole country.

00:11:55.917 --> 00:12:08.015
In fact, it will not only become amateur hour, but it will become radical amateur hour, because Kamala Harris is clueless on so many of the most important issues of the day.

00:12:08.859 --> 00:12:15.658
This book offers a critical examination of VP Harris's political career and her time in the White House.

00:12:15.658 --> 00:12:37.116
Spearing is a former political reporter for the Washington Examiner and for Breitbart News, and he presents a detailed investigation into Harris's ascent to the vice presidency, describing her journey as marked by incompetence and controversy, From her tenure as California prosecutor to her role as a US senator.

00:12:37.116 --> 00:12:54.378
Well, charlie describes it as utterly horrific, and her presidential campaign Charlie describes as well.

00:12:54.378 --> 00:12:55.804
One word, two words, actually frankly disastrous.

00:12:55.804 --> 00:13:04.289
The book also covers her initial years as vice president, portraying them as tumultuous and very ineffective.

00:13:04.289 --> 00:13:16.754
According to Spearing, harris's rise to the second highest office in the country was not based on merit, but rather on identity politics, suggesting that her selection was influenced by gender and race rather than her qualifications.

00:13:16.754 --> 00:13:19.793
In fact, let's go back to the book for another quote.

00:13:19.793 --> 00:13:25.736
Before we do that, I just want to highlight one quote from this whole book, and here it is.

00:13:27.184 --> 00:13:44.176
This book will explore what Harris believes and chronicle her willingness to say anything, to prove herself to the hard left by approving and adopting some of their most radical ideas, by approving and adopting some of their most radical ideas.

00:13:44.176 --> 00:13:55.081
That quote alone should send chills and notions of nausea for every American, no matter their gender or political affiliation.

00:13:55.081 --> 00:14:00.288
Kamala Harris is truly a radical's radical.

00:14:00.288 --> 00:14:05.719
You can read the book for yourself about her rise from San Francisco radical to a DC radical.

00:14:05.719 --> 00:14:17.240
But to get specific on just one issue perhaps the most important issue outside of the economy in this election in 2024, is illegal immigration.

00:14:17.240 --> 00:14:21.453
Here our radical amateur takes center stage.

00:14:21.453 --> 00:14:24.663
Here our radical amateur takes center stage.

00:14:32.845 --> 00:14:37.004
The single number one policy issue Vice President Harris has had charge over was illegal immigration and the crisis that was happening at our southern border.

00:14:37.004 --> 00:14:43.004
In fact, let's go to the book to hear about how it all went down.

00:14:43.004 --> 00:14:47.514
Just three months after taking office, the Biden administration had a full-scale migration crisis on their hands.

00:14:47.514 --> 00:14:53.710
Quote we are on a pace to encounter more individuals on the southwest border than we have had in the last 20 years.

00:14:53.710 --> 00:15:00.527
Senator of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas said on March 16th.

00:15:00.527 --> 00:15:02.091
He was right.

00:15:02.091 --> 00:15:15.600
Thousands of unaccompanied minors, families and single adults continued pouring across the border as patrol agents took 172,331 migrants into custody in the month of March alone.

00:15:15.600 --> 00:15:20.035
It was the highest number of detainments in the border since March 2001.

00:15:20.035 --> 00:15:28.294
Images of children in overstuffed detainment centers emerged and Republicans pointed directly at Biden's failed leadership.

00:15:28.294 --> 00:15:35.115
The crisis was the predictable result of Biden's campaign rhetoric promising open borders.

00:15:36.017 --> 00:15:50.506
On the campaign trail, biden rarely made a distinction between legal and legal immigrants, comparing them to his ancestral family from Ireland, who traveled aboard coffin ships and risked everything for a chance to build a better life.

00:15:50.506 --> 00:16:05.827
Biden also vowed during the presidential campaign to overturn President Donald Trump's effort to secure the border, and vowed there would not be another foot of wall constructed along the border with Mexico if he were elected president.

00:16:05.827 --> 00:16:14.269
By inauguration day, biden made a public spectacle of signing five, five executive orders on immigration.

00:16:14.269 --> 00:16:22.797
He also ordered a 100-day moratorium on deportations by ICE and promoted his plan to offer amnesty to illegal immigrants.

00:16:22.797 --> 00:16:52.618
For all of Biden's rhetoric about humane immigration policy, he was only making conditions worse for migrants, and so that is the context, that's the backdrop, that's the backstory of how Kamala Harris comes onto the stage when the spotlight was the brightest on Kamala Harris, when the country needed her to step up and be a big girl for the good of the country.

00:16:52.618 --> 00:17:05.228
This was the most important policy for the whole country and we needed her to rise, the occasion we needed her to do the hard work.

00:17:05.228 --> 00:17:07.625
How did she react?

00:17:07.625 --> 00:17:09.365
What steps did she take?

00:17:09.365 --> 00:17:11.788
What policies did she recommend?

00:17:11.788 --> 00:17:13.586
What advice did she give the president?

00:17:13.586 --> 00:17:16.266
Let's go back to the book.

00:17:19.020 --> 00:17:33.730
Harris had little experience as the leader of controlling immigration and border security, as San Francisco was one of the oldest and proudest sanctuary cities in the nation and the state of California continued making it easier for illegal immigrants to remain.

00:17:33.730 --> 00:17:48.092
Biden mentioned the importance of Harris handling the quote root causes of the crisis, but felt comfortable shifting the entire narrative to her, putting her on a pedestal as a smart and capable leader.

00:17:48.092 --> 00:17:48.461
Quote.

00:17:48.461 --> 00:17:51.269
She's leading the effort because I think she's the best thing.

00:17:51.269 --> 00:17:59.704
I think the best thing to do is to put someone who, when he or she speaks, they don't have to wonder about.

00:17:59.704 --> 00:18:02.863
Is it where the president is when she speaks?

00:18:02.863 --> 00:18:08.042
She speaks for me, doesn't have to check with me, she knows what she's doing.

00:18:08.042 --> 00:18:12.881
I hope we can move this thing along, but so, madam Vice President, thank you.

00:18:12.881 --> 00:18:21.605
I've given you a tough job and you're smiling, but there's no one better capable of trying to organize this for us, end quote.

00:18:22.847 --> 00:18:27.515
Now, on the surface, harris was smiling while her allies were furious.

00:18:27.515 --> 00:18:32.595
Was the West Wing trying to single-handedly sabotage her political future.

00:18:32.595 --> 00:18:35.502
Republicans could not believe it.

00:18:35.502 --> 00:18:39.752
Joe Biden had branded his rookie vice president as the border czar.

00:18:39.752 --> 00:18:49.674
Wasn't long before Republicans displayed at a press conference a picture of Kamala Harris on a milk carton reading Missing at the Border.

00:18:49.674 --> 00:18:57.433
Harris was quick to react, trying to wiggle out of the political millstone that had been tied around her neck.

00:18:57.433 --> 00:18:59.643
Aides tried to clarify her role.

00:18:59.643 --> 00:19:10.762
As Harris insisted, she was not a border czar and wasn't even supposed to focus on the US border itself, but instead on the causes of migration in the home countries of the Northern Triangle.

00:19:10.762 --> 00:19:14.893
She wasn't going to let anyone tell her otherwise, not even President Biden.

00:19:14.893 --> 00:19:19.228
In April, biden and Harris met with a congressional black caucus behind closed doors.

00:19:19.228 --> 00:19:40.441
Biden praised the vice president and said she would do a hell of a job handling the migration crisis, but Harris corrected the president in front of everybody, according to reports, reminding him she was only handling the northern triangle portion of the immigration crisis.

00:19:41.785 --> 00:19:49.784
Harris began her new assignment cautiously as her staff assembled a round table of experts to talk about the migration crisis.

00:19:49.784 --> 00:20:05.660
On April 14th, harris tried to explain how she could help fix the migration crisis by promoting economic development in the migrants' home countries by invoking the theme song to the famous set in Boston Quote.

00:20:05.660 --> 00:20:09.290
You know to use a phrase from an old television show Cheers.

00:20:09.290 --> 00:20:11.468
You know where everybody knows your name.

00:20:11.468 --> 00:20:24.119
She said in her opening remarks, reciting words from the show's theme song Most people don't want to leave their home, and you have heard that refrain.

00:20:24.119 --> 00:20:30.410
Harris did not want to be the border czar, but that's what the president of the United States said she was.

00:20:30.410 --> 00:20:35.592
He called her the border czar and that she would do a hell of a job.

00:20:35.592 --> 00:20:39.221
So what was the hell of a job she did?

00:20:43.363 --> 00:20:51.227
After Harris's failure on the border, biden and his team realized they would have to address the issue themselves.

00:20:51.227 --> 00:20:58.770
The vice president did fewer public events on the border crisis as record numbers of migrants continued crossing the border.

00:20:58.770 --> 00:21:10.516
Biden was loathe to give in to Republican demands for him to visit the border, but the immigration narrative had to be reset by January 2023,.

00:21:10.516 --> 00:21:14.577
Biden personally visited the border and even spoke with border officials.

00:21:14.577 --> 00:21:22.645
He also appeared with Harris at the White House to deliver remarks on the crisis Quote.

00:21:22.645 --> 00:21:30.271
Today I'd like to the vice president and I would like to talk to you about how my administration is dealing with our situation in the southwest border.

00:21:30.271 --> 00:21:30.692
He said.

00:21:30.692 --> 00:21:37.335
Harris stood behind the president as he spoke, but she did not deliver any remarks.

00:21:38.416 --> 00:21:43.849
In May of 2023, the administration braced for an influx of migrants into the United States.

00:21:43.849 --> 00:21:52.924
As Title 42, a Trump-era provision allowing migrants to be expelled at the border expired, kamala Harris was nowhere to be seen.

00:21:52.924 --> 00:22:05.288
Governor Abbott of Texas used the occasion to send more busloads of migrants to Harris' home in Washington DC, reminding everyone how she was failing on the issue of immigration.

00:22:05.288 --> 00:22:13.343
Rather than relying on Harris, the West Wing took the lead, deploying 1,500 troops to the border to handle the crisis.

00:22:13.343 --> 00:22:18.373
The vice president, however, was deployed to Atlanta for a fundraiser.

00:22:18.373 --> 00:22:23.226
On May 11, two more busloads of migrants from Texas arrived outside her home.

00:22:23.226 --> 00:22:24.606
Two more busloads of migrants from Texas arrived outside her home.

00:22:24.606 --> 00:22:27.111
It did not stop Harris from ignoring the problem.

00:22:27.912 --> 00:22:35.303
When asked about the crisis in a local TV interview, harris dismissed the crisis and punted the question to Congress.

00:22:35.303 --> 00:22:41.614
You know, I hear that everything in the last couple of days is going rather smoothly, given what the concerns were, harris said.

00:22:41.614 --> 00:22:50.125
The bottom line, however, is that this issue of immigration falls squarely within the responsibility of the United States Congress.

00:22:50.125 --> 00:22:56.476
Unbelievable, what a joke.

00:22:56.476 --> 00:22:59.064
So she did nothing.

00:22:59.064 --> 00:23:01.691
She never reported to the American people what she did.

00:23:01.691 --> 00:23:04.748
She never reported what advice she gave the president.

00:23:04.748 --> 00:23:05.450
We don't know.

00:23:05.450 --> 00:23:14.811
It was the biggest spotlight issue for the last three and a half years and Kamala Harris's report card is well incomplete.

00:23:14.811 --> 00:23:20.791
Or, as they say in golf, dnf did not finish.

00:23:20.791 --> 00:23:23.728
That's the only conclusion to make of all this.

00:23:26.859 --> 00:23:28.284
Kamala Harris is a radical and an amateur.

00:23:28.284 --> 00:23:41.703
She has more blunders and more missteps than Dan Quayle, who the Washington media used as a punching bag way back in the day for being the so-called weakest vice president in modern presidential history.

00:23:41.703 --> 00:23:44.230
At least Dan Quayle could talk.

00:23:44.230 --> 00:23:46.662
At least he could articulate a policy.

00:23:46.662 --> 00:23:48.646
At least he knew what the hell was going on.

00:23:48.646 --> 00:23:51.601
Dan Quayle took ownership of policies.

00:23:51.601 --> 00:23:55.210
He could brief the press on what advice he'd given to the president.

00:23:55.210 --> 00:24:00.846
He could sit down and do an interview and not have word salad throw up all over himself.

00:24:00.846 --> 00:24:05.694
Kamala Harris is a radical's radical, and an amateur at that.

00:24:05.694 --> 00:24:18.362
In today's Mojo Minute, please pray for our country, because it is radical amateur hour in Chicago tonight.

00:24:18.362 --> 00:24:31.067
It will be on full display tonight and, as I said last time, god help our country and let's try, try to keep fighting the good fight.
