Scott Adams: The media giants have already picked Sen. Kamala Harris as the 2020 nominee

As expected, Sen. Kamala Harris waited until Martin Luther King Day to announce her run for president in 2020, and not surprisingly, CNN announced that Jake Tapper would be hosting a forum with Harris next Monday in Iowa.
We’re kind of left wondering when the CNN forums are scheduled for the Democrats who announced before Harris, such as Rep. Tulsi Gabbard, Julián Castro, Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand, and more we can’t think of at the moment. Why does Harris get to go first?
“Dilbert” creator Scott Adams says the media giants have already decided the next Democrat nominee:

One year from now, Democratic voters will believe they made up their own minds to choose Harris as their nominee. Nothing like that is happening. The media giants have chosen Harris (obviously), and now they are assigning that opinion to their persuadable audience.

CNN chose Sen. McCain for the GOP in 2008. They chose Sen. Harris for the Dems in 2020.

And you could make a really strong argument that the media chose Donald Trump as the GOP nominee in 2016 — something the Hillary Clinton campaign was hoping for … an easily beatable opponent.

Same fix will be in for her as for Clinton, for the same reason and by mostly the same mechanic.

Fact check: True. The media is obsessed with spin and narrative.

Exactly right. This is the “implantation” phase.

What odds would you give that she becomes the nominee?

Can't rule out unexpected surprises about her past, but otherwise 95%.

We’d guess one of those unexpected surprises would be Joe Biden announcing, but who knows?
