Is it possible to be a “good vibes” candidate for president when, as vice president, your staffers quit in droves because of your toxic vibes? Apparently it is quite possible, if the media gives you cover and your opponent is Mr. Bad Vibes.
According to this report from July:
Harris took the oath of office in January 2021. As of March 31, 2024, only four of the initial 47 staffers from the first year are still employed – consistently and without interruption – by the Vice President.
Furthermore, the turnover chaos isn’t getting better. In the trailing 12-month period, 24 staffers left — that’s almost half the employees.
Keep in mind that Harris always had a half-decent chance of becoming America’s next president. You have to be a horrible boss for so many people to walk away from that much potential power.
