She's flip-flopping, there's no other way to put it.
Kamala Harris' 2020 campaign was radically left and she was the most liberal member of the Senate. She's a leftist, full stop. But she's got a problem: these very Leftist policy positions won't play well on main street.
Fracking ban? Gun confiscation? Outlawing red meat?
Yeah. Good luck with that.
So it's no surprise Kamala is walking away from her positions. Not only is the media scrubbing her record, but unnamed campaign officials are now saying Kamala isn't going to back a fracking ban (we don't believe it, either).
Vice President Kamala Harris is facing the delicate task of calibrating her policy pitch to American voters, a standard task for any White House hopeful but one that comes with additional challenges this year.
First, Harris is running for president while serving under President Joe Biden, meaning she’s linked to anything that happened — or will happen — on his watch. She inherits accomplishments like limiting the cost of insulin but also the administration’s struggle to prevent illegal border crossings.
Second, Harris has baggage from her own failed campaign for president before she became Biden’s running mate four years ago. During that Democratic primary, she backed an array of progressive proposals that Republicans have highlighted to paint her as “dangerously liberal.”
Because she is 'dangerously liberal.'
So weird.
Very interesting, no?
Yes it is.
And we have zero reason to trust that she won't revert to the 2020 policy positions once elected.
That's the truth here.
And they'll gladly do it.
Yes, please.
She's going to run more conservatively than Trump.
Very polite way.
Nailed it.
If only.
