With high prices continuing to slam average Americans following three years of explosive inflation under Kamala Harris, the issue has become top of mind for many voters. That’s led both nominees to put forth their proposals to bring relief.
Donald Trump has promised to lower taxes, increase energy production, and decrease regulations, all moves that would reduce consumer costs. For her part, Harris has lived vicariously through anonymous aides, refusing to explain what her “opportunity economy” actually is (other than spouting meaningless tripe about “equity”) and how it will be accomplished.
Some of that is purposeful. Harris can’t come out and pledge to fix the issues that caused inflation because that would mean admitting her administration was largely responsible for them. The vice president hasn’t just been second-in-command of the Biden administration, she’s provided the tie-breaking vote on several laws that led to the current situation, including the American Rescue Plan and the Inflation Reduction Act.
That has left Harris with only one real option: Claim inflation is the product of greedy corporations who only decided to get greedy the moment she and Joe Biden took office. In true Harris fashion, though, she’s such an empty suit that she screwed up her talking points while speaking to the Congressional Hispanic Caucus.
Vice President Kamala Harris on Wednesday acknowledged that corporate price gouging is not widespread, despite her campaign’s instance that it’s rampant and tackling it would bring down costs for Americans.
Speaking at the Congressional Hispanic Caucus Leadership Conference, Ms. Harris said it was critical for the administration to tackle “price gouging on behalf of corporations to lower the cost of groceries for Americans.” She accused companies of taking advantage of extreme weather emergencies or the COVID-19 pandemic to raise prices and pad profits.

I’m sick and tired of seeing photographs of Harris, especially large ones, in these articles. From now on I will delete the article. It makes the writer appear to have one foot in each camp. I’m not interested if she lives or dies, smiles or cries, she’s still a repulsive traitor. And once you see her without a smile, she’s ugly. And with one, she’s a fake.
