She branded her agenda as a “New Way Forward” despite her already being at the helm for nearly four years in the Biden-Harris administration. Nowhere in her platform did she explain how her approach would differ from what she is currently doing.

Here’s her platform.

Finally, she released a platform. Even a 3rd party had a platform out before Harris, and that 3rd party platform was easier to skim through, and nicely organized on a PDF. :)

Her linking to project 2025 and calling it "Trump's project 2025 agenda" is just plain evil... She knows good and well that's not Trump's policy platform - she's deliberately and intentionally misleading voters.

2 weeks before people start voting... Early voting starts in two weeks and she's just now gotten around to bothering publishing a list of policies...

I was starting to think people would be voting without her even having a platform up!

DJ Trump, April 2022.

Hello. Do you know what Heritage even is?

They are a conservative think tank who's been working on the conservative side since before Reagan took office.

What they do in order to make presidental transitions easier by providing a list, for instance, of potential conservative supreme court justices, a list of potential lower and higher level employees who have administrative experience who could slide in without much training etc.

They also give suggestions for potential policies that conservatives might like, and such..

But as with all lists of potential employees, and potential policies, you can choose to use some or none.

I believe Heritage was doing handstands because Donald Trump used 64% of their suggestions with 1 economic policy he created - that's their claim to most recent fame, he used almost 2/3 of a single policy suggestion they made.

Yea...

So for the transition will Trump be getting lists of potential Federal Judges and employees and a copy of their 9,000 page document for Trump to either peruse or dismiss at will?

Yes...

But Trump, independent of their help, has his own Agenda that he has published on his website months and months ago and it's not written by Heritage and has nothing to do with them or with their projects.

If there's some economic policy of Trump's that he may want to implement, if they wrote about some economic policy suggestions Trump might see if their suggestions are appropriate and he might use some of their suggestions in economic policy, 10%< 5%< whatever is appropriate to the moment.

But project 2025 from Heritage literally has nothing to do with Trump and is a think tank. They don't write any policy for any candidate.. they suggest and candidates themselves decide whether or not to listen to anything.

But I won't take this topic any further off topic .. I'm treating people like adults capable of rational thoughts only, not sparking off a debate.

I simply found it utterly disingenuous for Kamala Harris to engage in election interference by lying to the American public.

If she will lie this brazenly about her opponent, what kind of lies does she tell we don't know about?

The irony. The GOP's platform is whatever Donald Trump says it is.

Does her policy include a 10% tariff on all imports? Or a 50-100% tariff on all Chinese imports?

Tax cut for the middle class: (any disagreement with this?)

Vice President Harris and Governor Walz believe that working families deserve a break. That’s why under their plan more than 100 million working and middle-class Americans will get a tax cut. They will do this by restoring two tax cuts designed to help middle class and working Americans: the Child Tax Credit and the Earned Income Tax Credit. Through these two programs, millions of Americans get to keep more of their hard-earned income. They will also expand the Child Tax Credit to provide a $6,000 tax cut to families with newborn children. They believe no child in America should live in poverty, and these actions would have a historic impact.

Why aren’t those tax cuts in place now?

Wait... I've been told by others in this forum that this is the Democrat's platform.


Of course, that one says Biden is running for office.

So which is the actual platform? The one that they voted on at the DNC that doesn't even list the correct candidate, or "A New Way Forward" that Harris has on her website?
