As election season heats up, Harris loses steam in battleground states--and loses grip on support from black voters and men. After years of wishfully presenting the emasculated man as an ideal of "enlightened" masculinity, the campaign reverses course and marshals the full force of Democrat media savvy in an attempt to shame men into voting for Kamala because that's what real manhood looks like. The results are...underwhelming. Plus: Kamala’s book, Smart on Crime, is found to be low on rigor and full of rampant plagiarism, not that anyone ever thought she wrote it. All the same, none of this is a great look for the VP. Is the tide turning?
