Kamala Harris, campaigning in Iowa, tells 'em to 'learn to code'
American Thinker ^ | Oct 9, 2019 | Monica Showalter

California presidential candidate Sen. Kamala Harris has been campaigning in Iowa and apparently been telling the local poli-sci majors to "learn to code...."

The scene is a beauty parlor, so it may well be that she told one of its Millennial denizens upset at her low-skill job after graduating from college with a useless major to learn code if she wants a better-paying job.

The problem, of course, is that it's a dismissive sort of advice to throw out to someone who might just be unsuited to learning code and, in any case, clearly had dreams of doing something else...

If you had just learned to code, you wouldn't have this lousy job, she seems to be saying. Don't ask me to create an economy with jobs for everyone, because I have no idea.

Which she doesn't. And all of that goes to show just how unsuited she is to the presidency.

Soon enough, Harris will be out of the race, and then the chain can continue: look forward to Harris being told to code when she's out on her ear.

What it means is, “Learn how to program software.”

I’d bet Harris couldn’t code her way out a bathroom...

“Learn to code,” from a woman that has been given everything in life because of who her parents are. If she had to earn it herself, she’d be on the street.

Yeah, this from somebody who can’t program the settings on their TV.

LOL. When a bunch of leftie journalists lost their jobs, there were a lot of tweets telling them to “learn to code”.

Twitter banned them, IIRC.

Harris got where she is by sticking her butt up in the air, pretty sure learning to code isn’t in her future.

You mentioned the names "Monica" and "Kamala" in the same sentence.

Sure. Learn to code when a many of the jobs go to foreign nationals rather than degreed and highly experienced developers.

Stupid lying bitch.

That’s pretty much all I did. Then I was overqualified for everything. So no one would hire me for that. Yes, I’m white and male and over 40. So there’s two strikes right there under the Kenyan Usurper.

Most of my stuff is legacy but I can’t travel to other cities unless the client sponsors it. I might try for one a few hours away. We’ll see.

Why bother when the Indian whore is trying to bring hundreds of thousands of Indians over to the US to take our jobs. She is the co-sponsor of the ‘Make America into India’ Bill

When Harris presumably falls out of the race she will return to being a bitchy senator from Cali.
