Kamala -- It's time to put the stick into Trump's cage!

.

Trump is so paper thin, any criticism of him will make him go off on you!


White House aides restrain Trump from attacking Kamala Harris over fears of ‘elevating’ her candidacy

According to a report at the Daily Beast, Donald Trump is being advised to not take any shots — or give a nickname — to Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA) because White House aides are fearful of giving her more attention than she is already receiving.

With the California Democrat launching her 2020 presidential campaign over the weekend to great fanfare — to say nothing about attacks on the president — Trump has been uncharacteristically quiet and not returned fire.

“Five Trump associates and aides independently told The Daily Beast that they don’t recall a time when the president complained about or ridiculed Harris during private conversations over the past couple years,” the report states.

With one White House insider calling Harris a “non-entity,” the Beast reports “others close to the president say that the moment Trump senses that Harris is the frontrunner in the Democratic race, or that she is a clear and present threat to him, he will start going after her regularly.”

“He won’t keep quiet… for much longer,” the source stated.

I'm not too thrilled by Harris. As the CA AG, she increased prosecutions by almost 30%, locking up a lot of POC.
