Kamala Harris is every boss you’ve ever had who got promoted way above their ability level.

"the Peter Principle", which says "a person will tend to rise within an organization until they reach the level of their incompetence."  Kamala is the poster girl for the Peter Principle.  

"Peter" Principle has very different meaning than the on you just gave, though she is also totally incompetent for the VP job she is  apparently very good at the  blow job.  

 
Let's Go Brandon

sucking as many "peters" as possible was her path to the top.  

The Peter Principle applies a to corporate hierarchy, not politics.  In a corporation, if you do a good job you get promoted.    You can keep rising in the corporate hierarchy until you reach a level where you no longer are competent.

 
OTOH, in politics you can rise to higher offices simply by winning elections.  You don't have to do a good job to run for a higher office.  Take Sarah Palin for example - she was elected mayor of a podunk town and then was elected governor of Alaska and then had a chance to become Vice President.  In Palin's case, it's the Republican voters of Alaska who are incompetent.  They kept electing her with their incompetence until the smart Democrats beat her and McCain.

 
The same incompetent Republican voters enabled Trump to become President.  But Trump didn't rise to his level of incompetence - he was incompetent at every job he had in his life starting with his daddy's money that he frittered away.

did not limit his examples to "corporate" hierarchy, but rather any organization that involves a hierarchy where different levels skill required to do a job as you move up the ladder.   My point was that the Democratic Party is itself a hierarchy, according to the definitions of Peters, and Kamala has risen to a level where she is incompetent.  She was probably incompetent at California AG, too, but was protected by the Democrat movers and shakers she was blowing.  I'm guessing you just looked on Wikipedia like usual, and have not read the book.  A "little bit" of knowledge can be a dangerous thing.

...you have no clue what a "hierarchy" is.  A corporation is a hierarchy; the military is a hierarchy; the Catholic Church is a hierarchy.  A political party is NOT a hierarchy.

 
Someone who starts out in the mailroom can become the CEO of a company.  A private can become a general.  An altar boy can become the Pope.  In what mailroom of the Republican Party did Trump start out?  What ladder did Trump move up to become CEO of the Republican Party?

 
In politics, the Peter Principle is:
Someone rises to the level of his incompetence because of the incompetence of the electorate.

 
I'm guessing you just looked on Wikipedia like usual, and have not read the book.  Otherwise, you would have known the author's name is "Peter," not "Peters."  A typo?  No, you misspelled it TWICE.  

 
Whenever you're caught lying, you blame it on a "typo."  Just today, Jazzman caught you lying and of course you blamed it on a typo:
"The $100k was a typo, should be $200K.  Happy?"

You went out of your way to lie your ass off in an OP about a deputy DA in Orange County.  Remember Emby/Ernby?
You claimed she was an "acquaintance" of yours.   You claimed you heard her speak at GOP fundraisers.  It was all a lie because you didn't even know her name.  You read her obit but misread her name and then posted an OP that was total bullshit in order to pretend you were a big shot in Republican politics.

 
Respectful Robert stupidly thought it was a typo and you quickly agreed with him.  Then I busted your lying ass and you ran away like the lying coward you are:

"Typo" my ass - you're a liar.

hierarchy because YOU say so?  If you join the Democratic Party, and you decide you want to run for school board, and the party supports you with financing, then next term, you run for mayor, and again the party supports you with campaign financing, then County supervisor, and so on, up the latter until you become the worst fucking governor in the history of the state.  The party is a hierarchy and you worked your way up to your level of incompetence.  You should have been able to figure this out on your own without my example.  There are thousands of examples in the Democratic party of career politicians advancing in the party hierarchy until they reach the point where they fail to do the job.  Kamala is but the latest example. If you don't have a link from the author where he says a political party is NOT a hierarchy, then you should just STFU and stick to things you know about.  

a hierarchy but the Republican Party is not.  If I substitute "Republican" for "Democratic" in your post, it reads:
 "If you join the Republican Party, and you decide you want to run for school board, and the party supports you with financing, then next term, you run for mayor, and again the party supports you with campaign financing, then County supervisor, and so on, up the latter until you become the worst fucking governor in the history of the state.  The party is a hierarchy and you worked your way up to your level of incompetence...There are thousands of examples in the Republican party of career politicians advancing in the party hierarchy until they reach the point where they fail to do the job."

 
Are you saying that only applies to the Democratic Party and not the Republican Party?  If so, you're even dumber than your posts show you are.

 
You also LIED about what the Peter Principle actually says.  It states:
"In a hierarchy every EMPLOYEE tends to rise to his level of incompetence."

 
Politicians are not EMPLOYEES.  Politicians are independent contractors; they're self-employed.  They're not dependent on employee evaluations from their superiors to climb the ladder.  Their constituents evaluate their performance and decide if they should hold higher office.

 
If you don't have a link from the author where he says a political party IS a hierarchy, then you should just STFU and stick to things you know about...which is not very much.

 
Is Kelly EMBY a typo for Kelly ERNBY?  NO!!!!  You lied your ass off about knowing her and about going to GOP fundraisers.  It was a pathetic, desperate attempt at self-aggrandizement.

Calling the opposition incompetent Because you don’t like them?  

- SIGH -  

So your the arbiter of voter competence?  

MFP

That’s probably one of the best speeches she has ever given. 🙄

About the only other times she has been able to articulate anything coherently was when she was being a raging biatch during the Brett Kavanaugh confirmation hearings.

Even the lib media has done a vanishing act on covering ms. knee pads.  

CNN, MSNBC, etc etc....

Only Jizzy/glocky and the rest of the lib gang seem to think that Harris is a viable candidate for anything....
