(Jacob Bruns, Headline USA) Even as supply chains wither and the price of nearly everything skyrockets, Vice President Kamala Harris is slashing prices for photo opportunities with her at the upcoming Women’s Leadership Forum.
The event was originally scheduled to take place last month, but due to poor ticket sales, it was postponed until the fall at the DNC powwow.
“The event was rescheduled last minute for the autumn, when the event is traditionally held, after the event couldn’t sell enough tickets,” Status Coup News reported.
“When the invites were sent out on May 5, it was hyped as an incredible opportunity to mingle in person after two years of virtual events and meetings.”
Tickets to the Women’s Leadership Forum typically cost between $250 and $50,000.
Along with the postponement, the original cost of the photo opportunity with the VP was cut from $15,000 to $5000–a 66% drop.

Of course, voters have always found Harris remarkably unlikeable, despite the media’s routine attempts to prop her up.
Most recently, Harris took a trip to visit the South Carolina Democrat Party to deliver a speech and help fundraising. Many Democrats offered over-the-top praise for her performance.

South Carolina Democrat state party chair Trav Robertson suggested that Harris brought new vigor to the state party.
“She was absolutely pitch-perfect and it was one of the best speeches I ever heard her give.”
Ticket sales and poll numbers indicate otherwise.
So the @dnc had to move a May fundraiser with VP Kamala Harris to the fall because “they couldn’t sell enough tickets.”
