An explosive new poll indicates that Harris is the most unpopular vice president since at least the 1970s.
How are top Democrats fighting back? What is the explanation for these horrible ratings?
Now they’re claiming it’s due to “sexism” and “misogyny” rather than actual poor job performance.
According to the Economist/YouGov poll, 48 percent view the vice president “unfavorably.” Among this group, the vast majority [40 percent], said they did so “very unfavorably.” Democrats will presumably find these unpopular polling numbers to be very alarming with the 2022 midterm elections quickly approaching.
It gets even worse. The poll indicates that Harris is even struggling among young voters and Hispanic voters, possibly due to her handling of the US border crisis.
To fight back, top Democrats reportedly held a dinner to discuss ways to fight back against negative perceptions of the vice president, according to Axios. This included former DNC officials and presidential advisers. They blamed “sexist overtones” in media coverage for the poor approval rating.
Joy Behar and Whoopi Goldberg also tried to explain the poor approval rating for Harris during an episode on “The View”:
Harris, of course, has seen her popularity plummet in recent months as she bungles the border crisis — and as people have gotten the chance to know her.
Recall this uncomfortable interview with NBC’s Lester Holt in which she couldn’t offer a lucid explanation as to why illegal migrants continue to stream across the border:

TRENDING 👇 Transgender Weightlifter Loses at Olympics
New Zealand weightlifter Laurel Hubbard competed as the first transgender athlete in the Olympics.
Hubbard, who transitioned at age 35, competes against women in weightlifting. Hubbard, who is now 43, entered Olympic competition after eight years following the transition. Hubbard went through male puberty then qualified to joined New Zealand’s team in weightlifting and compete for gold.
The International Olympic Committee (IOC) made its decision to allow transgender athletes to compete. “We have to pay tribute to her courage,” the IOC said. However, Hubbard quickly learned her fate at the Olympics. She failed in the women’s +87kg weightlifting.
Hubbard had three attempts. In the first attempt, the weightlifter tried to lift 120kg and failed. In the second attempt, Hubbard lifted a “very shaky” 125kg. One of the female commentators reportedly said it’s “very surprising that the questionable 125kg lift wasn’t challenged with an appeal.”
Hubbard failed to lift the 125kg on the third attempt which removed the weightlifter from the competition.
The IOC’s medical and science director — Dr. Richard Budgett — acknowledged that Hubbard competing in weightlifting was “large, difficult and complex,” Fox News reported. While transgender athletes are required to demonstrate that their testosterone level is below a specific measurement for at least 12 months prior to their first competition, serious questions remain whether decades of higher testosterone levels have already produced significant muscle growth and maturity, which give Hubbard an unfair advantage against her fellow female competitors.
