How can we trust someone that will literally say anything to get elected? Voters have come to tolerate a certain level of inconsistency in our politicians, but Kamala Harris is taking things to an entirely new level that we have never seen before. She is disavowing a whole host of far-left positions that she previously deeply believed in, and she is trying to convince all of us that she is now a “moderate” that is deeply in touch with what the American people truly want.
Give me a break.
She doesn’t care about what the American people truly want.
All she cares about is getting elected.
This week, an Axios report that claims Kamala Harris is pledging “to spend hundreds of millions of dollars on the wall along the southern border” has been getting a ton of attention…
If she’s elected president, Kamala Harris pledges to spend hundreds of millions of dollars on the wall along the southern border — a project she once opposed and called “un-American” during the Trump administration.
Anybody that has any common sense realizes that Kamala Harris isn’t interested in spending money on that wall.
In fact, she once called that wall “un-American” and a “medieval vanity project”…
Harris called it Trump’s “medieval vanity project” then and “un-American” in a 2018 social media post. She also posted in 2020 that “Trump’s border wall is a complete waste of taxpayer money and won’t make us any safer.”
But right now immigration is an issue that is really hurting her, and so she needs to look like she wants to do something about it.
Of course there are many that are seeing right through this obvious ploy to fool voters. Here is just one example…
I thought I was reading a headline from The Babylon Bee when I saw on Tuesday that Vice President Kamala Harris now wants to build the border wall.
But it wasn’t satire.
Rather, the Democratic presidential nominee has decided she supports one of former President Donald Trump’s signature ideas − and one despised by progressives.
Needless to say, this isn’t the only issue that Kamala Harris has flip-flopped on.
When she was running for president in 2020, Kamala Harris wanted to ban fracking, but now she is for it…
“There’s no question I’m in favor of banning fracking, I have a history of working on this issue,” Harris said in 2020.
Republicans, including former President Donald Trump, have used her past comments on the issue to blast her in several campaign ads since she launched her 2024 campaign.
But campaign officials for the Democratic nominee are now saying that Harris will not ban fracking if she’s elected president.
When she was running for president in 2020, Kamala Harris wanted to put all Americans on Medicare, but now she is against that…
Harris published a plan for “Medicare for All” during her 2019 presidential election, writing that her goal was to “end these senseless attacks on Obamacare” and that she believes “health care should be a right, not a privilege only for those who can afford it. It’s why we need Medicare for All.”
“The idea is that everyone gets access to medical care. And you don’t have to go through the process of going through an insurance company, having them give you approval, going through the paperwork all of the delay that may require. Let’s eliminate that,” Harris wrote in 2019.
When she was running for president in 2020, Kamala Harris proposed a mandatory buyback program for all semiautomatic rifles, but now she does not support that anymore…
Harris endorsed a mandatory buyback program for semiautomatic rifles during her first presidential campaign.
“We have to have a buyback program, and I support a mandatory gun buyback program,” Harris said at MSNBC’s Gun Safety Forum in October 2019. “It’s got to be smart, we got to do it the right way. But there are 5 million [assault weapons] at least, some estimate as many as 10 million, and we’re going to have smart public policy that’s about taking those off the streets, but doing it the right way.”
Whatever she has to do to win an election, that is what she will do.
How can we possibly ever trust someone like that?
Of course Donald Trump has not exactly been a model of consistency either.
Let’s be perfectly honest about that.
Since the last election, his position on abortion has shifted dramatically…
The shock hasn’t worn off for pro-lifers, who continue to watch with dismay as Donald Trump and his Catholic running mate, Senator J.D. Vance (R-Ohio), seem to publicly disavow years of conservative principles on the unborn. Reaction is still pouring in over the former president’s tweet that his administration would be “great” for “reproductive rights,” a euphemism for abortion that many see as a devastating surrender in itself. It would be one thing, the editors of National Review wrote, “for a Republican candidate for national office to say that a federal law against abortion is unattainable, or even undesirable,” given the current political realities. But at this point, they continue, “pro-lifers have to wonder if there’s any difference left between the parties on abortion.”
Of course, as veterans of the movement know, the warning signs loomed large well before July’s Republican National Convention, when Trump’s inside circle hinted that abortion would no longer be an issue of common concern but a political inconvenience that the former president would try to avoid at all costs. The ensuing party platform cemented those fears, shredding paragraphs of pro-life vision and values in exchange for four sentences that promised merely to “oppose Late Term Abortion” and support mothers.
Trump realizes that most pro-lifers are going to vote for him no matter what, and so he is trying to win over more people in the middle.
But as I have warned my readers over and over again, if we do not end abortion we aren’t going to have a country.
I realize that this is a season when politicians in tight races all over the nation are absolutely desperate to win votes.
On Friday, we learned that Kamala Harris actually offered Cornel West a job in her administration if he would drop out of the race…
Independent left-wing presidential candidate Dr. Cornel West told said Friday that Vice President Kamala Harris’s campaign offered him a job in her potential administration, and to pay his campaign debts, if he dropped out of the 2024 race.
West made the stunning accusation after the close of the Democratic National Convention in Chicago, in an interview with independent journalist Jordan Chariton on the Status Coup News podcast.
This sort of thing should be illegal.
Unfortunately, corruption has become deeply entrenched in our system, and that isn’t going to change any time soon.
Meanwhile, the political divisions in this country just continue to get deeper and deeper. Just check out the results of one recent poll…
The 2024 presidential election is just around the corner — and young employees are threatening to quit if their bosses express a political belief they disagree with.
In fact, a new poll found that nearly half of workers under 35 say they’d quit a job over political differences at work.
In an era of polarization, Americans have cut ties with partners, friends and even family members over political disagreements, but now it seems they’re even willing to leave a paycheck behind.
I have never seen anything like this before.
All over America, Democrats deeply hate Republicans and Republicans deeply hate Democrats.
Without a doubt, we are never going to agree on everything.
But we aren’t supposed to hate one another.
If we cannot learn how to love one another, we will eventually be consumed by our own hatred, and that is the truth.
