Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA) joins a large crowd of Democrats vying for president. |
Four women are running for President of the United States.
This will be a historical first. The Democratic Party is more inclusive.
Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA) announced she is running for president. The California lawmaker will join Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA), Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY), Rep. Tulsi Gabbard (D-HI), Rep. John Delaney (D-MD), Julian Castro, Pete Buttigieg and Jay Inslee. They will face an imbecile incumbent who has a 70% chance of winning reelection in 2020
Donald J. Trump is very unpopular. He is intentionally hurting millions of Americans with the government shutdown. This Tuesday many of those furloughed workers will miss a paycheck. Those who are government contractors will not get paid. This is the longest partial government shutdown in American history. It looks likely to carry into February with some willing to abandon government posts in protest of disgust for Trump, Mike Pence, Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY), Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) and Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY). Most blame Trump and Republicans for the government shutdown,

In a 2020 field that now includes four women, her allies believe that her life's work as a prosecutor -- from her start in Alameda County trying grisly crimes such as sexual assault to felonies including homicide -- will help set her apart. The style developed over those years helped her build a national following when she grilled President Donald Trump's nominees, including Brett Kavanaugh when he was a Supreme Court nominee.
Harris has supported Medicare for all, legalization of recreational marijuana, sanctuary cities, passing a DREAM Act, lowering taxes for the working- and middle-class while raising taxes on corporations and the wealthy, and has disavowed most corporate donations.
