Now, the Democratic presidential candidate’s campaign is nodding to her summer job to highlight her upbringing and a platform to boost American workers that stands in stark contrast to her Republican rival Donald Trump, who “has no plan to help the middle class — just more tax cuts for billionaires,” according to a recent ad.

    between Harris saying she knows what it is like to struggle to telling protesters to shut up she is not becoming who thought she was at the beginning of all this

    Harris advertised as some hero of the people when she first announced she was in the race and with her VP pick thought that would really seal the deal for us

    but here we go again

      You should go on the internet and read what’s current, as of the last 24 hours, anyway!

      tl;dr:

      Pausing her speech on Friday to directly address the protesters, Harris said: “I have been clear: now is the time to get a ceasefire deal and get the hostage deal done.”

      baby steps, she’s not prez, yet…

          I’ve waited almost 70 years, you?

          You can put on your adult pants, too!

          Be the change you want! Get a meeting with that Israeli genocide guy, then the Hamas genocide dude, invite Daesh/ISIL/ISIS, maybe China, Russia, et al and tell them all to show both cheeks, like Jeebus said!

      She didn’t tell them to shut up she told them if they want trump to win just say it, and they were so flabbergasted by her quick witty response to them interrupting her that they shut themselves up.

          Well, damn. If this is the bar you’re setting, might as well ban me now. Post sounded like a bot, so I tried to test it. If that violates the civility rule, then what’s even the point of having comments open?

            Please read the sidebar, rule 3:

            If you think they’re a bot, report them, we’ll look at it and take care of it.
