About this episode
As the honeymoon quickly fades for the unelected but anointed Democratic candidate, the ugly truth about Kamala Harris is emerging. As U.S. political columnist J. D. Tuccille details with Brian this week, Harris has proven herself to be alarmingly unserious and personally difficult, with a problematic record on rights. And for Americans who want change, Harris looks like Biden rebranded. Her one advantage, Tuccille says, may be that Donald Trump picked J.D. Vance as his vice-presidential candidate, a mediocre senator and speaker who does little to broaden Trump’s appeal. Meanwhile, Harris still has a chance to pick a strong veep — if her party’s antisemitic faction doesn’t tie her hands. (Recorded July 25, 2024)
