Kamala claims Joe’s policies: Letters to the Editor — Oct. 14, 2024

The Issue: Miranda Devine’s file connected Vice President Harris’ tying herself to Biden connected The View.

Perhaps unintentionally, Miranda Devine flattered the vacuous Vice President Harris by referring to her arsenic “Joe 2.0” (“Kam can’t fell it: She’s conscionable Joe 2.0,” Miranda Devine, Oct. 10).

Although President Biden’s supporters cannot constituent to a meaningful accomplishment helium has achieved successful his full career, it has not been due to the fact that of his deficiency of effort.

By contrast, successful her 3 years arsenic vice president, Harris has provided ample grounds that she is utterly lazy and truthful incapable of being our nation’s president.

On “The View,” Harris afloat admitted that she was a cardinal subordinate successful the formulation of medication policies successful the past 4 years.

She present owns the disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan, the monolithic ostentation and indebtedness caused by overspending, the unfastened border, implicit which tens of millions of migrants entered our country, the monolithic transgression question that came thereafter and the caller overseas argumentation chaos.

Harris has present enactment america each connected announcement arsenic to what to expect successful the adjacent 4 years should we enactment her backmost successful the White House — much of the same, oregon worse.

On “The View,” erstwhile asked if determination was thing she would bash differently, Harris said, “There is not a happening that comes to mind.”

People support criticizing Harris’ lackluster show connected The View.

But it indispensable beryllium understood that the DEI party, the Democratic Party, has acceptable a debased barroom for their statesmanlike candidate.

Simply put: The idiosyncratic chosen indispensable simply bash a amended occupation speechmaking from a teleprompter than Biden.

Decision-making would not beryllium necessary, since each decisions would beryllium made by the enactment elite — arsenic it has been during the full Biden administration.

The Issue: Former President Barack Obama’s assertion that achromatic men won’t ballot for Harris owed to sexism.

I knew the Democrats would propulsion the sex paper (“Race-baiting Bam lecture,” Oct. 11)

Former President Barack Obama suggested that achromatic men aren’t consenting to ballot for a pistillate president simply due to the fact that she would beryllium a woman.

While that whitethorn beryllium true, Harris is besides mostly incapable to unafraid much votes due to the fact that her policies person delivered the other of what galore voters want.

Most voters privation little ostentation and debt, harmless communities, controlled immigration, little divisiveness and much accountability.

Perhaps Harris and the Democrats should excavation a small deeper.

Maybe then, they would spot that often their policies don’t assistance the mean American — but alternatively wounded them and the state astatine large.

It’s similar trying to propulsion a rabbit retired of a hat, but this clip Obama won’t beryllium capable to propulsion it off.

His signature rhetoric of trying to entreaty to achromatic voters has worn off, particularly erstwhile helium tries to bait them along.

Voters person smartened up, particularly since Obama’s chosen campaigner doesn’t person the substance.

His faded persona simply doesn’t transportation the aforesaid value arsenic his erstwhile tag-line erstwhile did, of “Hope and Change.”
