We have been treated this week to the parade of media talking heads and alleged journalists suddenly coming to the shocking realization that former President Joe Biden was in no condition to stay at the controls of the most powerful nation in the world (at least, that's what they're saying in public now). How long have we at RedState been writing about the obvious elephant in the room--that he was unfit to lead, for several years?
As we speak, though, many of these same journalists and commentators in the legacy media have yet to turn the same corner on the woman who worked arm-in-arm in the White House with him for four years and lost to Donald Trump in Nov. 2024. No, as incredible as this might sound, Kamala Harris is still 100 percent solid in their eyes. I'll get back to that in a minute.

Enter Kevin O'Leary, investor and one of the stars of "Shark Tank," who showed up as a part of the panel on Abby Phillip's CNN show, as my colleague at sister site Townhall.com, Matt Vespa, noted, and as hard as they tried to shut him down for speaking the truth, he managed to sneak some in.
First, Phillip and the rowdy (besides O'Leary) members on the panel get agitated over the gift to the U.S. government of the stand-in jetliner for the much-delayed, new Air Force One planes being built by Boeing from Qatar.

He urges the host to get a grip on herself and reject the virus that carries Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS), which is threatening to destroy any shred of credibility Phillip might have left.

O’Leary: What’s the goal of the trip?

Phillip: Not to get a giant gift..
O’Leary: You have to distance yourself from Trump Derangement Syndrome
Phillip: Do you understand that is in the constitution?
Sellers: He doesn’t pic.twitter.com/jqsn0gJwx8
He doesn't just throw that line at Phillip, but makes a gentlemanly suggestion in hopes of getting the discussion back on a sane track about Trump's foreign policy trip-- something the host and the rest of the panelists were obviously having serious trouble doing.
"It doesn't matter," O'Leary manages to say, "what matters is --" before being rudely cut off by Phillip, who blurts out an asinine question about the emoluments clause in the Constitution. Even after Bakari Sellers makes a childish remark about O'Leary's knowledge, to Mr. Wonderful's credit, he isn't rattled in the least.
His attempts at righting the ship, as you'd expect, were to no avail as the show trudged on. In another segment, things got even more testy, with one after another of the liberal lunatics shouting down O'Leary's sensible statements about Kamala Harris. As you'll see, they don't manage to succeed.
You love to see it.

NOW: Kevin O’Leary just ended Kamala Harris’s political career on live TV with three brutal words

“She got SLAUGHTERED!”
A firestorm ignited after the CNN panel realized they’d just been hit by a freight train—courtesy of Mr. Wonderful.

It was Sellers who accidentally gave him the set-up to tie the progressives up in their own lies. He asserted: “There’s nothing about Kamala Harris that’s a loser. Let’s just put a pin in that.”
O'Leary shot back:“Oh, I think there is. She lost big time!” But what really set off the panel was his next truthful statement about the election, something the Left cannot abide: “She got SLAUGHTERED! She got slaughtered.”
In the middle of their verbal melee against him, he continued his sentence: “She got slaughtered because they disavowed the process. They anointed her—and she got slaughtered. That’s what happened.”
At this point, Abby Phillip in panic mode pulled the plug on the panel segment, but not before O'Leary got in one final blow. He said that despite the fact that it might be hard for them to hear/speak the truth about Harris, "She couldn't put two sentences together!"
The disease that these people suffer from is, alas, a brutal one. We should pray for a day when they might be cured of this debilitating and addling plague.
