The Democrat Party’s presumed presidential ticket, Kamala Harris and Tim Walz, are trying to convince American voters that their campaign is about bringing “joy” back.
The Harris-Walz campaign reveals little about how “joy” is defined and measured, what policies the duo proposes to bring “joy” to America, and whether they aim to make all Americans feel joyful or only those who agree with them. Since the Democrat establishment launched a soft coup to swap Biden for Harris on July 21, Harris hasn’t done any sit-down interviews with any major media outlet nor held a press conference. Her campaign website is the first that doesn’t list the candidate’s policy positions.
The lack of detail and transparency about this supposedly “joyful” campaign seems intentional. However, the track records of Harris and Waltz are sufficient to make American voters feel worried rather than joyful about the horribly destructive policies a Harris-Walz administration will bring.
Harris’s failed 2020 presidential campaign revealed the extremely dangerous policies she supports, such as banning fracking, Medicare for all, an open border policy, and eliminating cash bail. After Hamas terrorists attacked Israel, committing rapes, murdering, and kidnapping on October 7, 2023, Harris expressed sympathy for pro-Palestine and anti-Israel protestors. To appease the Democrat Party’s extremist wing, Harris didn’t attend Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s speech at the joint session of the U.S. Congress, but she did make time to meet with leaders of the Uncommitted National Movement, a pro-Palestine group that calls for an arms embargo against Israel.
Harris’s handpicked running mate, Minnesota Gov. Walz, is known for disastrous, anti-American policies. According to The Wall Street Journal, Walz’s accomplishments include:
- “Passing one of the nation’s most permissive abortion statutes that has essentially no limits and no age consideration for minors.”
- “Declaring Minnesota to be a ‘trans refuge,’ with a law saying that the state will ignore a ‘court order for the removal of a child issued in another state because the child’s parent or guardian assisted the child in receiving gender-affirming care in this state.’”
- “Making an estimated 81,000 illegal immigrants in the state eligible for driver’s licenses, along with health insurance through the MinnesotaCare public marketplace.”
- “Mandating that public utilities generate 80% carbon-free electricity by 2030, ramping up to 100% by 2040.”
Walz’s response to Covid-19 further demonstrated authoritarianism. He encouraged fellow Minnesotans to snitch on neighbors who weren’t following the government’s lockdown orders, a tactic reminiscent of communist China’s approach.
Most alarmingly, Walz publicly supports censorship, claiming “there’s no guarantee to free speech on misinformation or hate speech, and especially around our democracy.”
By selecting Walz as her running mate, Harris reinforces that she is still the same West Coast leftist committed to realizing the most ruinous policies imaginable.
According to Democrat Party insiders, Harris-Walz’s “joy” campaign is modeled after former President Obama’s 2008 campaign of hope and change, relying on lofty and uplifting rhetoric to distract American voters from asking tough policy questions.
