Kamala Harris has been losing support, but nobody could have possibly envisioned things were this bad.
Edward-Isaac Dovere, a reporter for The Atlantic, stated that the Harris campaign shipped in dozens of people specifically to cheer for Harris during her DNC speech in San Francisco on Friday…
Kamala Harris's speech at the DNC was boosted by a cheering section of about 40 people that her campaign brought in, erupting every time she hit a big line — and then that group got up and walked out as soon as she finished

Who Were These People?
Just who made up this cheering section has been a hot topic for several days now.
Some believe Harris actually paid for the people to come and cheer during her speech.
Others are saying these people are volunteers for her campaign that went to the speech to show their support.
Either way, it seemed a bit odd that “top tier” presidential candidate would need to resort to such tactics during a major convention.
After all, if Harris is the top-tier candidate she touts herself as being, she would not need to ship in a crew to applaud during key points of her speech.
Nor would she need them to cause a ruckus as they were leaving as well as disturbing the speech of another candidate…

Freefalling Candidate
This seems to be a desperate move by a desperate candidate.
Harris started this race out as a five percenter.
However, after the first debate, Harris climbed considerably and at one point, was giving Bernie Sanders and Warren a run for their money for second place.
After the second debate, though, Harris’ campaign started to tank, falling 12 points and putting her back among the bottom dwellers in the race.
Harris’ campaign is all but over but the only person that does not seem to realize it is Kamala Harris herself.
