You knew it was coming. First, Reuters/Ipsos put their thumb on the scale in a new 'shock' poll showing Vice President Kamala Harris leading Donald Trump in the 2024 race - because they egregiously oversampled Democrats.
Now, the media is performing triage for Harris - who nobody likes. Especially her staff.
The problem? Harris was very publicly put in charge of the border crisis - which of course spiraled out of control (or went according to plan). At the time, the media dubbed her the "Border Czar."
Now, corporate media is claiming that was never actually true, and is just a right-wing talking point to smear their preferred candidate.

Axios was even more egregious -
The Trump campaign and Republicans have tagged Harris repeatedly with the "border czar" title — which she never actually had.https://t.co/PPHCjKBf83

Except - the same exact outlet published this on April 14, 2021:
We’ll just throw that one right down the memory hole and make a few adjustments

Oh, they're just getting warmed up. By November she will have delivered on Biden's promise to cure cancer.

Oh...
Here is the moment Biden crowned Kamala "border czar" in 2021.

Nearly four years later, Kamala has visited the southern border just ONCE as millions of illegals have invaded our country — and ravaged our communities with needless violent crime. pic.twitter.com/xuPSWhISE0
This you girl?
Kamala Harris tells the View that she wants to decriminalize illegal border crossings, so basically a wide open border, where there is no consequences for coming across. This alone should disqualify her as a serious candidate by any person who is tethered in reality. pic.twitter.com/uLNyKurl8u
