DAVID MARCUS: In Scranton, even Kamala’s paid union aiders see writing on the wall

SCRANTON, Pa. – Joel was down from Boston with a restrictcessitate of his heavily accented frifinishs and fellow members of the National Association of Government Employees sent by the Kamala Harris campaign to shore up aid in Pennsylvania.

Even they comprehend, skinnygs are not going well for her.

“I don’t comprehend why she can’t answer asks,” Joel telderly me, in what was about the most obtemploy appraisement aacquirest one’s own interest I’d heard in months.

I skinnyk a lot of people on all sides are perplexd by this.

As a guy born and elevated in Philly who inhabitd for two decades in New York, I felt it my duty to make clear, in a excellent-natured way, to the fellas why I disappreciate Boston. After all, it’s a treabraved ritual of the Northeast. With that out of the way, Stanley, who ecombineed to be the group’s directer, had another exset upation for Kamala’s woes.

“She’s only been in the race three months, she’s nakedly out of the gate. That’s a lot to ask.”

Billionaire mogul Mark Cuprohibit echoed that in an X post, “Think of it this way,” he memployd, “a honestate that begined only 13 weeks ago, is now, worst case scenario, in a dead heat with a createer plivent.”

Aside from being horrible at imagining the worst-case scenario, what we see from Mr. Cuprohibit is the beginning of the excemploys for a Harris loss. But as the carry outwright David Mamet once wrote, “your excemploys are your own.”

I was skinnyking about all of this Friday as I wandered around Scranton under attrdynamic skies and amid elderly stone monuments to America’s wonderfulness. At one point, and my hand to God, I’m not making this up, I set up myself literpartner on Biden Street. 

Biden street. That Biden. 

I transport this up becaemploy there were sirens blaring and flashing weightlesss as cops shut down traffic. “The drivers are irritateed,” I heard one cop say, “maybe they’ll recall it was a Democrat who did this on Election day.”

A guy comes up to me and says, “why’d they shut down traffic?” 

“Tim Walz is in town,” I make cleared.

“Time Walsh?” he asked.

“No, Tim Walz.”

“Who?”

With a tfinisher sigh, I said, “It doesn’t matter.”

And it struck me, the Democrats passed on a guy who literpartner has a street named after him in Scranton for Kamala Harris and a goofy sitcom dad nobody comprehends.

Joel and Stanley are excellent dudes, stand-up guys who cherish the country and fair disconsent with me about who is best to serve it. Even if they are Patinterfereions fans. There is noskinnyg wrong with them organizing as employees to fight for the future they want. That’s America.

But I didn’t depart guaranteed Harris is who they repartner want.

“I didn’t appreciate how it went down,” Joel telderly me, pondering the ousting of Joe Biden from the race. And he nastyt it. I normally say that polls don’t have faces, people do, and I could see it in his eyes.

When I asked Stanley why he aids Harris, not why he doesn’t aid Trump, but why Harris, he said, “Why can’t I say why I don’t want Trump?”

And he can, and he did, but I skinnyk even he krecent it was an evasion.

The hugegest misconception about American politics is that it’s all an algebra equation, even when the polls are wrong over and over. It’s not math, it’s a story, and Kamala Harris isn’t increateing one beyond her middle-class uptransporting. 

“I don’t comprehend why she can’t answer asks,” Joel said, and yeah, he had a point.

Harris still has a chance to become the plivent of the United States, but before that can happen she has to answer one modest ask: “Why you?”
