This Kamala Harris endorsement is basically an example of the Glass Cliff.

The Democrats lack of preparation has Kamala Harris walking the ultimate glass cliff. The phenomenon where women especially from racial minorities break a "glass ceiling" only when an institution is trying to solve a crisis and the chance of failure is highest.
