'Side chick': MAGA hits Kamala Harris with resurfaced affair slurs

0

MAGA resurfaced decades-old allegations against Kamala Harris as it tried to cripple her run for president as soon as it got started.

Rumors from 30 years ago that Harris had an affair with the future mayor of San Francisco Willie Brown reignited accusations from the right-wing that she slept her way to the top.

She “got her start in politics by sleeping with Willie Brown,” wrote conservative columnist Matt Walsh on X. His post was reported by The Daily Beast.

“She became Vice President because Biden needed a non-white female on the ticket. Now she likely becomes the Democratic nominee for president because the guy at the top of the ticket has dementia," he wrote.

“She’s made a career out of begging for handouts from powerful men. A thoroughly unimpressive human being.”

The slurs continued, as right-wing lawyer Clay Travis compared Harris to Stormy Daniels, the adult movie star that Donald Trump paid to keep quiet about a sexual relationship the pair had.

“So how is Kamala Harris starting her career in politics as the side chick of the married mayor of San Francisco not a hugely important story?” he asked on X.

The Beast reported that a fact check by Reuters in 2020 confirmed Brown and Harris dated in 1994, when Brown had been separated from his wife for more than a decade.

“Harris and Brown’s relationship was not secret and they made public appearances as a couple,” the fact check stated.
