How Obama and Clinton are losing North Carolina for Harris!

[Reagan]

From the article:  "Ironically, a condescending speech from former President Barack Obama has done Ms. Harris the most damage. Stumping for Ms. Harris, Mr. Obama would deliver a stern lecture to Black men about their support for Mr. Trump that was as welcome as a Mozart string quartet at a rap festival.  

As for Ms. Harris’ loss of support among North Carolina’s blue-collar workers, an equally tone-deaf Bill Clinton unwittingly lent a helping hand there. Let me explain why by telling a tongue-in-cheek apocryphal story I’ve told this week as I traveled for the Trump campaign in North Carolina at the same time Mr. Clinton was stumping in the state for Ms. Harris:

So Bill Clinton’s motorcade drives by a rusted-out factory in Hickory. Mr. Clinton asks his driver, “What happened to that factory, sir?” The driver says: “You happened, sir. You destroyed that factory.”

Confused, Mr. Clinton says: “How can I possibly be responsible? I’ve never even been here before.”

The driver responds: “President Clinton, my daddy worked at that factory, and you brought it to its knees when you signed NAFTA in 1994 and turned Mexico into a staging area for the dumping of all sorts of furniture and textiles into America from the sweatshops of India and Asia.

“And then you drove a stake through that factory’s heart when you succeeded in shoehorning China into the World Trade Organization in 2001. And my daddy lost his job."
