Is there anything about Kamala Harris and her presidential campaign that is… you know… genuine?
OK, we already know the answer to that; there is very little about Harris that is genuine other than her word salads and her grating laugh; her running mate Tim Walz is no better. And while campaign events are frequently, as Ed Sullivan would have put it, a “really big show,” with opening acts and so on, it sure seems like Kamala Harris can’t fill up a broom closet, much less a major venue, without some kind of draw – because the people sure don’t seem to be coming out to see her. In the latest such instance, in Eau Claire, Wisconsin, she held a rally and her campaign ballyhooed the line of people waiting to get in.
Here’s the catch: They were waiting to get in to see a local celebrity musician, one Bon Iver, who gave a free concert as an in-kind campaign contribution (which I am sure will be properly reported as such – right? Right?):
OMG! The Kamala Harris Rally Line in Eau Claire, Wisconsin is soooo long!
What’s not being reported is that they got Bon Iver, who is a local from Eau Claire, Wisconsin, a Grammy-Award winning music artist to perform at the rally.
So basically, it’s another free concert..… pic.twitter.com/wRui7ELdkw

Yeah, another free show – and another instance in which the folks walk out when the band is done?
My friend and colleague Brandon Morse described another such event on Wednesday, July 31st:
Even the Atlanta rally the Democrats and their media are harping on about, featured an appearance by Megan Thee Stallion, with lyrics that I’m not sure were gone over before they were performed.
Moreover, when she was done and Harris took the stage, people began leaving. 3
