Concern trolls keep concerning. You don't actually care about her policies or her positions. Trump literally didn't have a platform in 2020 (it was a rehash of the 2016 platform) and has shown with his current "policies" that he has no follow through on how to implement these. The funny thing, policy positions only matter to the informed and educated, which would exclude 98% of MAGA voters. Those who are educated and informed openly despise what Trump, Project 2025 and the GOP presently stands for -- rendering the publishing of any policy position by Harris moot. Most voters identify with and vibe with the candidate, not the policies. But you knew that, didn't you?


So you don’t know where to find the policies on her website either?

Where is KH’s policy positions? The only information on the website is her background and multiple links to donate money.


Calm down. She's been the presumptive nominee for just over a month. Feel free to look at the policies that the Biden administration implemented or defended in the meantime. You, of course, act like she's entirely removed from her current position as VP (you know, a heartbeat away from leading the current administration).


Well, Biden's policies have largely sucked and what little Harris has said is idiotic.

If she can't figure out something better in month, then I'm not sticking around any longer.


Hmmm, turning around a crashed economy and exceeding replaced jobs to record numbers
passing the infrastructure bill that trump could never do
passing the chips act, which has already started to reap benefits with manufacturing jobs
passing the IRA which has had positive impact on green economy investments
pumping oil at record numbers, combined with the above, makes the US a net energy exporter
strengthening our NATO allies and stem the Russia threat.

Ya, these are all sucky.

Off the top of my head:
* Cap insulin costs at $35
* $2k cap on prescription costs
* Expand child tax credit to $3,600 per child, $6k credit for parents of newborns
* $25k down payment assistance for first-time homebuyers


Those are goodies for voters. These are easy. What about the hard issues?


Are those not policy positions?

Bribes- vote for KH, she is going to make it financially advantageous for you.


Trump is running on tax cuts (i.e., bribes) for billionaires and electric cars for Mush. He already delivered on the tax cuts last time. That's the whole GOP platform and the only thing they can implement with any sort of consistency. Are you suggesting that being the candidate that is financially advantageous for you isn't a winning strategy? Because if you are, then I have a bridge to sell you.

Amazing people want to stimulate demand for homes when demand isn’t even close to the problem. The problem is supply. And they think a good solution is granting people more money to push prices higher. I live in an insane asylum.

They were in her acceptance speech.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2024/08/16/kamala-harris-2024-policy-child-tax-credit/


Your link requires a paid subscription. Why should Americans have to pay a news website to try and suss out a presidential candidate’s policy and plans?


You asked for a link. There are other articles and sources. I can read it without a subscription. In part it reads:
The most striking proposals were for the elimination of medical debt for millions of Americans; the “first-ever” ban on price gouging for groceries and food; a cap on prescription drug costs; a $25,000 subsidy for first-time home buyers; and a child tax credit that would provide $6,000 per child to families for the first year of a baby’s life.

Debate is in two weeks. And Kennedy positive buzz will last as long as JD Vance’s did. Because “a worm at my brain and I put a dead bear in Central Park” is weirder than even couch humping. Incels understand couch humping. No one understands brain worms and putting dead animals in public parks.

Many Americans care about debate performance. It is a good stress test for the candidates. Last one had both candidates struggling. One withdrew and one is going to try to debate again and struggle against Harris


Hilary Clinton won her debates again Trump. So did Kerry vs. Bush. Even Obama lost his first debate to Romney. Debates matter a lot less than people think. They only matter if they're a total disaster and when the candidate already is facing questions about age as Biden was.


So is Trump.

Call her stupid all you want. She’s not. She’s a former prosecutor who has run a campaign with amazing message discipline— and discipline, period. It’s going to be an amazing contrast to Trumps rambling and erratic behavior.

Plus, she’s younger than Trump and much more attractive. I think the visual of youth v age and Trump rambling and her shrugging, saying she can’t respond because he’s incoherent and weird and looking younger and better is a JFK v Nixon moment.

She does not need to be policy heavy to win because Trump’s main policies are grievances and retribution. Her upbeat campaign will do well against that.

Plus, Trump is on his heels. He has yet to find a good response to her. None of his insults are sticking. He can’t even land a good nickname.

Maybe I’m wrong. But, I think Trump looks like Biden did in his first debate when he goes against her. Definitely think more people than normal will tune is.


What is her message though? Other than criticizing Trump and throwing out some grand ideas she can never accomplish, what’s her platform?


1. Not Trump
2. No insurrections
3. Pro-choice.
4. Pro-NATO
5. Pro-Israel, but has separated herself from Biden on Gaza
6. Child Tax Credit

Etc. You realize she has a website with her policies, yes. Google is your friend.

That is, BTW is much more coherent than Trump, who has no policy positions.


What is her pro choice policy proposal?


I'm sure it's similar to this, which would codify Roe as Federal law: https://www.congress.gov/bill/118th-congress/senate-bill/701



In fact, her campaign has publicly stated that this is her position. Restore Roe via law.

https://www.politico.com/news/2024/07/29/kamala-harris-abortion-restoring-roe-00171657



So, no third trimester abortions. That means that in some states that now have no restrictions women will have less reproductive freedom under Harris than they would under Trump.


No stupid, that's not what it means.


The person thinking things through is not the stupid one. If the state has no restrictions right now and then Congress passes a law that imposes restrictions and Kamala Harris signs it then, women in certain states will have less reproductive freedom under Harris than they do right now.


What state has no restrictions on 3rd trimester abortion right now?


None. There are a few that allow it in exceptional (and extremely sad) circumstances.

2. The debate in September will be another chance to highlight her experience and a stark contrast to Trump. So will the VP debate with Walz/Vance.
3. Trump will likely be sentenced in September - a huge wildcard that probably is neutral at best for him and possibly terrible. She doesn't have to do anything while independents and undecideds are reminded of his myriad crimes. Moreover, he'll have to focus his attacks on a different more immediate threat (i.e., judge/potential prison).
4. Biden probably has a few administration positive "surprises" waiting to use this fall such as the recent prisoner swap, executive orders or rescheduling marijuana, some more student loan forgiveness and other things like that to keep positive things in the spotlight for Harris.
5. She'll probably sit down for strategic interviews as well as late night tv to keep up visbility and momentum.

That's a lot of ways to keep up momentum for just the next 70 days or so.
