Kamala Harris wants all of America to forget who she really is. But that won’t be happening anytime soon.
Because Harris’ past has come back to haunt her after Americans just discovered this shocking fact.
As Vice President Kamala Harris prepares for a potential presidential run, she suddenly claims to be deeply concerned about the economic struggles of ordinary Americans. But this newfound concern rings hollow when one considers her pivotal role in creating the very crisis she now pretends to want to solve.
For four long years, Harris has been at the forefront of the Biden administration, casting critical votes that have driven America into its worst inflationary spiral in decades. Yet, despite her deep involvement in shaping these disastrous policies, she now expects the American people to believe that she can fix the mess she helped create.
Vice President Harris’s track record on economic policy is nothing short of catastrophic. One of her most notorious actions was casting the tie-breaking vote for the so-called Inflation Reduction Act in August 2022. This $739 billion spending spree, disguised as a solution to inflation, has only worsened the economic pain felt by millions of Americans.
President Joe Biden, during his speech at the Democratic National Convention, proudly acknowledged Harris’s contribution, saying, “Guess who cast the tie-breaking vote? Vice President soon-to-be President Kamala Harris, and now it’s the law of the land.”
But what has been the real legacy of this legislation? The Inflation Reduction Act was touted as a solution to the nation’s economic woes, yet its passage has only accelerated inflation, driving up the cost of everything from homes to groceries.
According to Americans for Tax Reform (ATR), rent has skyrocketed by 13 percent, and new mortgages have surged by a staggering 36 percent. Basic necessities like baby food, frozen vegetables, butter, bread, and flour have all seen double-digit price increases since Harris helped push this disastrous law into effect.
Harris’s damaging impact on the economy didn’t begin with the Inflation Reduction Act. In March 2021, she cast another tie-breaking vote to pass the $1.9 trillion American Rescue Plan, another massive spending bill that injected more money into the economy than it could handle. This reckless influx of cash exacerbated inflation, setting the stage for the economic disaster that millions of Americans are grappling with today.
Grover Norquist, president of Americans for Tax Reform, didn’t mince words when describing Harris’s role in America’s economic decline. “Kamala Harris cast the tie-breaking vote on the two biggest legislative drivers of inflation: the American Rescue Plan and the Inflation Reduction Act,” Norquist stated. “She also supported the Biden-Harris regulatory regime which imposed additional costs on households.” In other words, Harris has been one of the chief architects of the economic suffering that Americans are enduring.
The statistics tell a grim story. Under the Biden-Harris administration, mortgage rates have climbed by an astonishing 156 percent. Gas prices have increased by 35 percent, energy costs by 33 percent, and transportation expenses by 28 percent.
Everyday items like eggs have risen by 53 percent, baby food by 30 percent, and bread by 24 percent. These are not just numbers on a page; they represent the real, daily struggles of American families trying to make ends meet in an economy that Harris has driven into the ground.
Harris’s economic policies have not only failed to curb inflation, but they have also actively made it worse. And now, as she positions herself as the next leader of the Democratic Party, she is proposing even more policies that would further erode Americans’ financial security.
Among her proposals are a carbon tax, a 44.6 percent capital gains tax, and a 28 percent federal corporate tax rate—policies that would stifle economic growth, reduce take-home pay, and put American businesses at a competitive disadvantage on the global stage.
It is beyond hypocritical for Kamala Harris to now claim that she can fix the economic problems she had a direct hand in creating. For four years, she has been at the helm of an administration that has done nothing but exacerbate inflation, burden American families with higher costs, and push policies that have led to widespread economic suffering.
And yet, despite her deep involvement in these disastrous policies, she now expects the American people to believe that she can turn things around.
The question that every American should be asking is simple: If Kamala Harris truly has the solutions to our economic woes, why has she not implemented them during her four years in the Biden administration? Why did she cast the tie-breaking votes for bills that have driven up inflation and made life more difficult for millions of Americans?
The answer is clear: Harris’s sudden concern for the economy is nothing more than a desperate political ploy, a last-ditch effort to distance herself from the failed policies that she has championed for years.
Kamala Harris’s actions are symptomatic of a broader problem within the Democrat Party. The party’s leadership has consistently shown that they are more interested in advancing their radical agenda than in addressing the real concerns of the American people.
From the Green New Deal to their obsession with raising taxes, the Democrats have consistently pursued policies that harm the middle class, stifle economic growth, and erode the financial security of American families.
The fact that Harris is now being positioned as the future of the Democratic Party is a clear indication that the party has learned nothing from its failures. They continue to push the same failed policies, the same reckless spending, and the same misguided priorities that have led to the economic suffering of millions of Americans. And they do so with the full knowledge that their actions are hurting the very people they claim to represent.
Kamala Harris’s legacy is one of economic failure, hypocrisy, and betrayal. She has been at the forefront of an administration that has driven up inflation, burdened American families with higher costs, and pushed policies that have made life more difficult for millions of Americans.
And now, as she positions herself for a presidential run, she expects the American people to believe that she can fix the very problems she helped create.
