What do you define competence as?
I define competence as meeting the minimal qualifications or having the ability to perform a job, according to professional expectation.
Many of our previous Founding Fathers have done great and terrible things. Because a lot of their achievements, they raised the standard of what an ideal president should be. But because of knuckleheads like Trump and Biden, they also lowered the threshold significantly.
The job of the President should be to maintain or improve the stability and safety of our economy, as well as manage the federal government. There are plenty of qualified black female candidates that meet the criteria for President. Kamala Harris does not for several reasons.:
- She is a grifter. I might be willing to give her the benefit of the doubt if she was authentic about her beliefs, but the fact is she doesn't give a damn about the nation or the people, she's concerned about having people support her.
- She is a snake. She was the worst choice for VP by Joe Biden. She has no loyalty to him and would openly condemn him if the left-wing media incentivized her to because of peer pressure. She has no moral compass and even if she personally liked Biden, it would not stop her from turning on him in a heart-beat.
- She is an evil person. Her history as a prosecutor had her pressing charges against plenty of nonviolent drug offenders and deliberately tried to withhold evidence that would've gotten people exonerated. (Here is the interview where she brags about these things.) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dgWZJZcwpnY
- She is incompetent. I mean this in two ways. 1. She's under-qualified for the role of president because of her inexperience in politics or economics and her education would make her a terrible fit. 2. She would undermine the very integrity of what being a President means and has not demonstrated the capacity that she even understands what a President does or what they're supposed to do.
Case in point, you REALLY don't want Kamala Harris as President.
