From a Padawan to a Jedi Master: Is Kamala Harris' rise the swiftest vibe shift in U.S history?

Democrat presumptive candidate Kamala Harris has featured on the cover page of 'Time' magazine. In the cover story "The Reintroduction of Kamala Harris", Charlotte Alter described how the election campaign changed after US President Joe Biden pulled out and endorsed Kamala Harris. Quoting a national organizer of the Democratic Party, she wrote Democrats resigned to a ‘grim death march’ toward certain defeat, but later they felt their gloom replaced by a jolt of hope. Citing her failed 2020 presidential campaign and subdued role as Biden’s No. 2, Alter wrote that Kamala Harris was underestimated by her party.

"Kamala Harris caused swiftest vibe shift"

Alter also wrote the former New York Attorney General created the swiftest vibe shift in modern political history. She also said that perhaps the 2020 Democratic primary and her time as vice president were not the right times for Harris to "showcase her talents." The writer also said that Kamala Harris "seems matched to the moment" as the Democratic presidential nominee.

Harris critics mock Time

However, the cover story triggered a controversy as the conservatives and Harris critics quickly mocked Time magazine. Journalist Glenn Greenwald took to social media platform X to write that the US corporate media transformed Kamala Harris from a national embarrassment to a transformative pioneer overnight without even pretending to care about anything that she thinks or believes.


National Review senior writer Charles C. W. Cooke asked "Why did she need reintroducing? Is it that she needed to change all her policies?" Communications specialist Brian Doherty wrote that Kamala Harris had been reintroduced more times than the McDonald's McRib sandwich.

Despite appearing on its cover page, she declined an interview with the 'Time' magazine.
