Vice President Kamala Harris is facing criticism over reports of poor staff retention, raising questions about her policy accomplishments. A Canadian businessman and journalist expressed concerns about Harris' lack of notable achievements and urged her to focus on key issues like inflation, border security, energy policy, and foreign affairs.
The businessman highlighted a reported 92% staff turnover rate in Harris' vice presidential office, suggesting that this could lead to 'buyer's remorse' among Democratic supporters. Former staff members, including a communications director, described the working environment as stressful and challenging.
There are growing doubts about Harris' leadership abilities, with some questioning her fitness to lead millions of Americans based on her struggles in managing a smaller team. The businessman emphasized the importance of evaluating Harris based on her track record of accomplishments, similar to the expectations placed on governors and senators aspiring for higher office.
Comparisons were drawn between Harris and Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, with the businessman cautioning against electing leaders based solely on charisma without a proven record of effective governance. The discussion highlighted the need for Harris to demonstrate concrete policy achievements and leadership skills to gain credibility as a presidential candidate.
