'Boss from hell' Kamala Harris ridiculed as report reveals VP's office hit by high staff turnover

WASHINGTON, DC: Nine out of every ten employees who worked under Vice President Kamala Harris in the past three years left their positions, dissatisfied with her management style.

Only five out of the 47 staffers who worked with her since 2021 remained in their posts as of this spring, according to RadarOnline. 

This revelation has cast a shadow over Harris, who was recently thrust into the spotlight as a potential replacement for President Joe Biden on the Democratic presidential ticket.

Kamala Harris' difficulty in retaining staff attributed to her harsh and unforgiving management style

Kamala Harris' difficulty in retaining staff has been attributed to her intense management approach, described by former aides as "prosecuting the staff." This has led to her being labeled as a "boss from hell" by some insiders.

The issue of high staff turnover has been a significant concern for the Biden administration. According to whistleblowers who spoke to Axios, even Biden doubted Harris' ability to secure a win against GOP candidate Donald Trump in the upcoming election due to this very issue.

A former Harris staffer echoed these sentiments, expressing concerns about the lack of dedicated advisors and strategists around Harris. "You have to have your people around you," told the source to The Hill.

Another insider questioned whether the vice president is a demanding boss or simply a "boss from hell," as reported by OK! Magazine.

Despite these challenges, prominent Democrats such as Hillary Clinton, Bill Clinton, and Nancy Pelosi have shown their support for Harris as the Democratic presidential candidate.

However, others like Barack Obama, Chuck Schumer, and Hakeem Jeffries have yet to endorse her officially, though Beltway insiders expect Obama to clarify his position soon.

After dropping out of the 2024 race, Biden endorsed Harris, calling her selection as his VP "the best decision I've made" and urging Democrats to unite behind her to defeat Trump. "Let's do this," declared the POTUS in his announcement on X (formerly Twitter).

Obama promptly weighed in on Biden's decision, expressing his confidence in the Democratic Party's ability to produce an outstanding nominee. He noted, "We will be navigating uncharted waters in the days ahead. But I have extraordinary confidence that the leaders of our party will be able to create a process from which an outstanding nominee emerges."

Harris' campaign has already made a significant impact, raising a record $81 million within the first 24 hours, as reported by the Associated Press. While national polls still show her trailing Trump, there is optimism within the Democratic Party that her numbers will improve over time.

Internet trolls Kamala Harris as reports reveal high staff turnover 

Netizens questioned Kamala Harris' leadership abilities as a report revealed her inability to retain staff in her office. 

One said, "She'll treat the country just as badly," and another remarked, "This woman has zero hirable qualities related to performance...to put it in business terms."

A person wrote, "If she treats her staff so poorly, how can we expect her to treat the American people if given the big boy chair?" while someone else added, "Tell me no one wants to work with Harris without telling me. no one wants to work with Harris."

"People don’t like divas," declared an individual, with one more expressing, "Disaster ticket if this is what they go with."

"People who know they don't belong where they are often act angry and mean towards other people," offered another person.
