Vice President Kamala Harris might be a woman without conviction, but she’s trying to get away with selling more than a few contradictions.
Democratic presidential candidate and Vice President Kamala Harris addresses supporters at Throwback Brewery in North Hampton, Wednesday, Sept. 4, 2024.might be a woman without conviction, but she’s trying to get away with selling more than a few contradictions.On Wednesday, Axios’s Alex Thompson reported on a “lengthy ‘fact-check’ ” forwarded by the Harris team to their allies in the press revising the unpopular policy positions she articulated just a few years ago.
Back in 2019, Harris co-sponsored a bill that would have required automobile manufacturers to produce only electric and hydrogen-powered vehicles, completely phasing out the gas-powered ones that most Americans depend on by 2040. Harris touted her support for an “accelerated model” under which that transition would be made by 2035.Thompson, to his credit, followed up by asking if Harris would sign or veto the bill she co-sponsored just a few years ago.
Maybe if she adopts the accent of some exaggerated caricature — “Ya betta thank a union memba for sick leave!” — in front of some crowds she can stop Democrats’ bleeding with that demographic. But Kamala Harris’s attempt to get to November 5th without articulating a clear vision for the country — or even who she is — is so flagrantly disrespectful of the voters as to astonish even the most grizzled skeptics.
And it would be heartening if Harris and her party were backing away from the destructive agenda it embraced in 2020.Harris’s insulting attempt to hold on to the crazy wing of her party while pulling moderates back in should trouble both groups, as well as raise this question: Just how little does she think of the American people?
