It seems like the political atmosphere is heating up again, folks. Recently, Kamala Harris was greeted at an event with a shout proclaiming, “Christ is King!” One might think that a heartwarming declaration about faith would be met with applause and cheer, but no, Harris had a rather different reaction. Instead of embracing this expression of religious faith, she deflected with a quip about being at the wrong rally. In progressive politics, the only king they recognize is the one wearing a crown of contradictions!
Harris’s response was almost comical if it weren’t so revealing. The audacity to imply that a rally focused on Christ should be at some other location shows how disconnected some of our leaders are from the beliefs of everyday Americans. One can almost picture her standing there with a look of confusion as if she had just stepped into a pep rally for a high school she never attended. Newsflash: Not everyone is ready to toss out their faith just because political correctness is all the rage in the progressive playbook!
It’s hard to miss the irony here. In a country where the majority still profess belief in a higher power, Harris is perfectly content to shine a light on her agenda rather than resonate with the spiritual sentiments shared by many of her constituents. The mantra of “be true to yourself” seems to vanish when faced with voters who dare to mention Christ. It’s as if she thought people would just forget the spiritual dimension of their lives when attending a political event. The nerve!
And what’s even more amusing is the applause that followed her comment. It raises the question: who exactly were people clapping for? Was it for the notion that being in touch with one’s faith is a no-go zone in politics these days? Or were they simply entertained by her rebuttal? Perhaps they just enjoy witnessing how a leader can seamlessly sidestep a fundamental truth to play to their base. If laughter is the best medicine, then her quip was a full prescription for those who still believe in the values that built this country.
At the end of the day, this entire exchange highlights the chasm between progressive politicians and the average citizen. While they might relish the idea of living in a world where faith is taboo, the reality is that for millions, it is an integral part of life. As the old saying goes, believe them when someone shows you who they are. Harris might have given us a glimpse into the minds of those who seem to run from spirituality like it’s a rabid dog. The moral of the story? In politics, it’s essential to recognize that faith doesn’t just belong in the pews—it deserves a seat at the table, too!
