It was bad enough that Joe Biden and Kamala Harris never said the names of the 13 fallen from the disastrous exit from Afghanistan. It tanked both of their approval ratings. It exposed just how incompetent Joe Biden was as a leader, and Harris, too, who bragged about being the “last person in the room.”
Why weren’t they properly remembered? Probably because Joe Biden and Kamala Harris wanted to deflect from the operation as much as possible. Their indifference was so bad that there was a grassroots effort to get Joe Biden to “say their names.”
This video was posted two years ago:
And this viral TikTok:
A Gold Star father had to interrupt Joe Biden’s State of the Union to get him to say the name of his son.
Now, Kamala Harris has decided to take to Twitter to join the pile-on as the media desperately tries to paint Trump’s visit as yet another reason to dehumanize him and turn something important and meaningful into what amounts to a hissy fit.
Someone wrote a statement for Harris:
Whoever wrote this for her thinks the American people are stupid enough to believe it. She also brought up the “suckers” and “losers” lie. The whole thing backfired on Harris when the Gold Star families clapped back with complaints against her and Joe Biden.

Unfortunately none of these statements will make a dent in public opinion; the people who hate Trump don't listen to anything other than what reinforces their existing opinion.
