Former ESPN host Jemele Hill has claimed that failed Democrat presidential candidate Kamala Harris is “overqualified” for the presidency.
However, Hill argues that Harris only lost the election because of the alleged “racism and misogyny” of the American people.
In the wake of Harris’s crushing defeat from President Donald Trump, the liberal sports journalist was oddly quiet about the outcome.
However, she is now finally speaking out to play the blame game.
Hill took to her podcast this week to deliver her highly anticipated analysis of Trump’s historic election victory.
“I take the reelection of Donald Trump quite personally,” Hill said.
“Because of the person themselves, but also as a black woman.
“And that is because I think for a lot of black women, we can relate to Kamala Harris just in the sense of some of us have been in that position before where we felt qualified, if not overqualified in many respects.”
After claiming that the underqualified VP was “overqualified” to be president, the anti-Trump journalist then moved on to pushing wild conspiracy theories about the election.
According to Hill, Trump somehow managed to ensure that two of his three presidential races were against female opponents.
She argues that Trump then used this to his advantage because he knew the “electoriate” was apparently racist and sexist.
“And I don’t think it’s by any accident that both of Trump’s presidential victories have been against women,” she continued.
“I hate to use the word ‘ready,’ but at what point will America be ready for a woman to be in that role?”
“I think it’s a question we have to ask ourselves, is this like, what is it going to take?
“Because I see all this post-election autopsies trying to box around what I think was pretty obvious about how racism and misogyny were driving a lot of the coverage, the opinions, and even how the ‘electoriate’ [sic] saw Kamala Harris.”
WATCH:
Hill claims that Trump only won because the Democrats floated a female candidate against him both times — Hillary Clinton in 2016 and Kamala Harris in 2024.
However, the real problem with Clinton and Harris had nothing to do with their race or gender.
Both Hillary and Harris ranked as some of the most unpopular people in their era of politics.
Harris was so unpopular that when she tried to run for president in 2020, she came nowhere near winning a single primary before dropping out.
And as VP, she was even more unpopular than Biden ahead of her elevation to the party nominee.
Clinton, meanwhile, has always been a controversial figure.
She has ranked among the most unpopular politicals in recent U.S. history, even during her presidential run.
If the Democrats want to win, maybe they should try running a candidate who is popular and authentic, like Trump.
