Of Course: Kamala Reportedly Expressing Discontent with News Coverage Surrounding Job Performance, Cites Race and Gender as Factors

Vice President Kamala Harris is reportedly expressing discontent with the news coverage surrounding her performance as the nation’s second-highest office holder, citing her race and gender.

According to a piece by The New York Times, Harris has been privately complaining to her allies that the media’s coverage of her would be better if she were any of her 48 White male predecessors, and has reportedly confided in them about the difficulties she’s facing with her assigned portfolio from the White House.

The Times’ piece, which focused on Harris’ struggle to “define herself” within the Biden White House, noted that she held no “headlining role” when it came to some of the administration’s most difficult decisions and that she was caught between criticism that she wasn’t performing the job well and resentment from supporters that she was being “undercut” by the West Wing.
