[W:234] Kamala Harris sleeps her way to the top in California

So it's true, political heavyweight Brown admits to giving Harris appointments that furthered her career.



Willie Brown on Kamala Harris: 'We dated,' I 'influenced her career'

Former San Francisco Mayor Willie Brown addressed his past relationship with Sen. Kamala Harris in a letter to the San Francisco Chronicle on Saturday and acknowledged giving her appointments that furthered her career.
"Yes, we dated. It was more than 20 years ago," wrote Brown, who said he had "been peppered with calls from the national media about my 'relationship' with Kamala Harris, particularly since it became obvious that she was going to run for president."
Harris' office did not immediately respond to USA TODAY's request for comment on Brown's letter to the Chronicle.

Brown was married at the time he and Harris dated, but – because he had been "estranged from his wife" Blanche Brown since 1981, according to People magazine –the relationship was not kept secret. A Sacramento Bee reporter told People that Brown "had a succession of girlfriends" and would "go to a party with his wife on one arm and his girlfriend on the other.”
2020:Harris announces presidential bid on 'Good Morning America'

A 1994 Los Angeles Times report about then-California Assembly Speaker Brown's "rush to hand out patronage jobs" described Harris as Brown's "frequent companion" and said several people referred to her as Brown's girlfriend. That report also cited a column from the Chronicle's Herb Caen that called Harris "the Speaker's new steady." When they met, she was 29 and Brown was 60.
 

This is pretty common knowledge as is her hard shift to the far left in favor of Green New Deal and Universal Healthcare. The real question is, Is America fooled into thinking the democrats can equal the economic surge we have seen under Trump. Job numbers, economic growth, return of manufacturing jobs that Obama said will never return, the strength of the stock market. What you can expect is a fall in all of those numbers as you see your taxes rise substantially. The left wants to blame Trump for the effects of the Covid 19 pandemic, please tell me how that makes sense. I see the biggest problem in NY and NJ and in MA and CT. There numbers are abysmal but I don't hear the left blaming the terrible leadership in those states and in NYC.
 
So having an affair is bad to you Trump supporters now huh? :lamo

Again you Trump supporters have set your bar SOOOOOOO LOOOOOOW with Trump, you will always have Trump that has done WORSE. :lamo

I was one of Clinton's biggest defenders so why wouldn't I defend Trump or Harris's choice to have consensual affairs?

I was against Clinton being impeached for his love life.
But what is telling in your comments, is that you judged Trump so harshly while giving Harris a pass. That is the height of hypocrisy.

So point that moral compass right back in your general direction and we'll call it good. :)
 
Trix didn't pass judgement on the relationship between Harris and Brown. You're projecting. Why would you possibly be projecting with regard to such judgements?

Thank you, and yes, you are correct about Praxas's projections.
 
Projection.

Also, I couldn’t help noticing that you accepted that he sexually assaulted 25 women. I guess raping one’s own daughter is the thing you have a moral issue with.

I don't think so, Cardinal. It's just a bit over the top in political rhetoric to run around saying your opponent "probably raped his daughter".

After that episode of you spreading fake news the other day, and now this, one can only conclude that you're dishonest and should be ignored.
 
After four years of Trump paying off porn stars, any attempt to brandish Kamala Harris' past is absurd.
You guys elected a person who has made hypocrites out of the lot of you, and the fact that you can't see that speaks volumes.
BTW how does Putin taste?

It's the hypocrisy we are calling out. You can't condemn Trump while giving her a pass without being called out.

Nobody cares who Kamala screws.
 
And it Begins...……...:shock:
 
Well, it’s a choice. Do I go with the woman who slept with her boss, or do I go with the guy who sexually assaulted 25 women and most likely raped his daughter?

Decisions decisions...

Amen to that. While once attending a party, she spilled her drink on the tablecloth while Trump was in the kitchen shi!!ing on the food.

It never ceases to amaze me that so many in the US see being in favour of national - not 'universal' - health care is somehow a 'hard shift to the left'.

Clinton's Love life? So Bill and Monica was one of the great romances of the age?

I think Harris is good news and I hope she wins. It will be her the US will be voting for or against; Biden will understandably be ignored.
 
I pride myself on being politically knowledgeable. I have been writing about politics for over 20 years. I have studied politics for over 50 years.

That said, I am puzzled by something. We know that Biden has picked Kamala Harris for his veep.

We know that Republicans want Kanye West on as many ballots as possible.

The Post reports, "In at least five states, Republican activists and operatives — including some who have publicly supported Trump and a lawyer who has worked for his 2020 campaign — have been involved with efforts to try to get rapper on the November ballot, according to an examination by The Washington Post of public filings and social media posts. Their involvement raises the specter that his candidacy is being propped up by a GOP-driven effort to siphon votes from presumptive Democratic nominee Joe Biden."

We know West wants to help Trump. West said in a text message he was “walking . . . to win.” Told he could serve as a spoiler in the race, West responded, “I’m not going to argue with you. Jesus is King.”

West is bipolar.

Here is what I am confused about.

Why in the world does Kanye West want to help Trump.

Is it because he is as stupid as he sounds?
 
Libel and slander are also Democratic Party tactics. They can't can't win an election honestly, so they lie.

You mean like claiming for years that an American president was foreign-born and faked his birth certificate? No, that's your trumpist repugnant party, my confused friend.
 
How quickly the left loses their moral compass when its one of their own.

Hypocrisy and double standards ARE the standard for democrats.

You voted for a serial adulterer.
 
It's the hypocrisy we are calling out. You can't condemn Trump while giving her a pass without being called out.

Nobody cares who Kamala screws.

Why not? Did she cheat on her husband with a porn star? Is she accused of sexually assaulting 25 men? She had a consensual relationship. Not even close to the same thing as the loser you support.

I have never voted for a Kamala Harris, so how could I be a hypocrite?

Yes, trump is a serial rapist, a serial adulterer, and talked about wanting to have sex with his daughter. At this point any reasonable person can safely assume that he raped her as a child.
 
Kamala worked well under Willie Brown! Q 2024

Your opinion is noted but you missed my point completely.
Oh, and thanks for making my point. You hypocritically condemn Trump, have been condemning him for four years but give her a pass.
The hypocrisy is to be expected by the Trump haters.
 
I'm enjoying watching Trump supporters keep trying to climb onto their moral high horse, talking about hypocrisy of all things :lol: and repeatedly falling off and landing on their heads.
 
Willie wouldn,t let her on top! Q 2024
 
I have never voted for a Kamala Harris, so how could I be a hypocrite?

It was never about being coherent. If they're angry, they're morally right. Trump's failings don't make them angry, so Trump didn't do anything wrong.

They feel impotent, and they're furious about it.

That's all there is to them.

Not me. I'm calling out the hypocrites who have been condemning Trump for his consensual, extramarital affairs while Harris consented to an affair with a married but separated Willie Brown. Did Trump's affairs result in him getting political appointments? I think not, whereas Brown admitted to helping her career by giving her appointments.

I don't care that both of them had affairs. BFD.
Many, including me, are calling out the faux outrage wrapped in hypocrisy shown by the Trump haters. So buckle up...

The hypocrisy is to be expected by the Trump haters.

At least TWENTY-SIX women have accused Trump of sexual MISCONDUCT.
Versus one adult who had a consensual affair.

Moral equivalence? Really?
