Kamala Harris was fine – TheGrio

Editor’s note: The following article is an op-ed, and the views expressed are the author’s own. Read more opinions on theGrio Black people are never “amazing” and are rarely “awesome.” While they might feel fantastic, Black elders — especially in the South — seldom admit it. Even at their emotional and physical finest, they are often reluctant to jinx their current state of equanimity. So, when asked how they are doing, they often respond with a locale-dependent, technicolor expression that […]

Kamala wiped the floor with him

Editor’s note: The following article is an op-ed, and the views expressed are the author’s own. Read more opinions on theGrio. You could see that Vice President Kamala Harris won the debate even if you had the sound off. It started with the way she opened the debate, striding across the stage to shake Donald Trump’s hand. He tried to dodge the shake, and she had to kind of chase him to make it happen. Right there, she looked like the more adult […]

Yes, all eyes are on Kamala Harris, but will the media hold Trump accountable at tonight’s debate?

Tonight, all eyes will be on Kamala Harris. We’ve seen her as a vice president. We’ve seen her take the Democratic National Convention stage as a historic presidential nominee. And now, for the first time, she will be in the room with her opponent, Donald Trump, going head to head in their first presidential debate. At least as much as a candidate possibly can, with microphones muted after every response (sorry to fans of Kamala’s big prosecutor energy). But while […]

Tara Setmayer on leaving the GOP and supporting Kamala Harris: ‘The Republican Party I knew is dead’

Tara Setmayer knew when it was time to leave the Republican Party. “The final straw for me was when I actually formally left the party the day after the 2020 election when Donald Trump refused to concede the election and made all those wild accusations from the East Wing of the White House,” Setmayer, a longtime political commentator who is now an Independent, tells theGrio. “That was not a redline for [Republicans]. They let him get away with the election […]

Was Kamala Harris code-switching or pandering? We asked an expert.

A new “gate” just dropped. Ever since a sitting president was accused of sponsoring a Washington, D.C., break-in (no, not that one), covering up a secretly recorded phone call of his attempts to interfere with a presidential election (no, not that one) and Congress filing articles of impeachment (calm down, bruh; I’m getting to it!) attaching the suffix “-gate” to a word transformed a benign word into a scandal. The Watergate Hotel burglary was just a gateway drug to America’s […]

Barack Obama has thoughts on Kamala Harris’ ‘coconut brown’ suit

If the “coconut brown” suit Kamala Harris wore to the Democratic National Convention in Chicago on Monday, August 19 reminded you of the similarly hued tan suit Barack Obama wore during a press conference in 2014, you’re not the only one. On the 10-year anniversary of the moment in fashion history, Obama poked a little fun at the incident that launched a debate over appropriate political fashion, surprisingly making even more headlines than the geopolitical statement he initially made while […]
