Civilizations, Arnold Toynbee said, die from suicide, not murder. The United States has chosen to commit seppuku through the unusual method of identity politics and has picked Vice President Kamala Harris as its sharpened blade.

Harris’s disqualifications are so obvious that they should not need adumbrating. She is slow, vacuous, and superficial. She talks in cliché because she thinks in cliché. She cackles, not because she has some sardonic take on life that eludes the rest of us but because she cannot think what to say. Almost every political office she has occupied has been handed to her on grounds of diversity, equity, and inclusion.
