Last night was the first VP debate for the 2020 presidential election. Kamala Harris, the woman that would become the vice president if Joe Biden is elected president, debated the one and only Mike Pence, the running mate to President Trump. I watched the whole thing, and although it wasn't as hectic and messy as last week, Kamala made it a bit unbearable to watch.
Why? Well the number one reason is her preppy, sassy Californian girl attitude. Rolling her eyes, laughing, sassing Pence, and more. She constantly bragged about being a prosecutor for the state of California, where she prosecuted mostly Black men and women, and she kept spewing lies that the media has made up about the Trump administration that have been fact checked and proven false (he doesn't hate or discredit the military, and yes he has spoken out against white supremacy MULTIPLE times).
But what really irked me that made me shake my head and laugh, unsurprisingly, was when they were on the topic of the Supreme Court.
Pence was confronting her about how she and Joe Biden would try to pack the senate if they won, and instead of answering the question and completely dodging it, she brought up the fact how the Trump administration hasn't added anyone of color to the Supreme Court or higher positions. Whether or not that is true, which I have no fact checked yet, she blatantly brought up race when it was not necessary. Someone's race does not make them more qualified position than others of a different race.
The fact a Black woman, who has persecuted mostly Black people, was on stage, on national TV, bringing up a race issue when it was uncalled for, shows how obsessed the left is with race.
Yeah sure, Black lives matter and people in that community are being wrongfully killed, which both Trump and Pence have spoken on and have been pushing for more conservative reforms on, but randomly bringing it up?
The liberals in this country are already going crazy over race, making a larger gap and more tension between the races than there has been in decades, and Harris fed into that craze. It was unnecessary, unprofessional (in my opinion), and feeding into the problem instead of fixing it.
Once our society realizes not everything is about race, then maybe we can start to settle and tolerate each other more.
