In the realm of politics, truth often takes a back seat to rhetoric, but few have mastered this art as thoroughly as Vice President Kamala Harris. Promising to lead with integrity and decisiveness, her tenure has instead been marked by contradictions and inaction, especially stark in her handling of the border crisis and tax policies. This stark discrepancy between her promises and her actions begs the question: is Kamala Harris the greatest lie ever told in American politics?
Promises vs. Reality: The Border Crisis Unraveled
When President Joe Biden appointed Kamala Harris as the border czar, expectations were high. She was supposed to manage the escalating crisis at the U.S.-Mexico border. Instead, her role has been ambiguous and her results, disappointing. Her sporadic visits to the border and vague statements have done little to stem the tide of illegal immigration, which has surged to record numbers under her watch.
Critics argue that her position on the border has flip-flopped. Initially, Harris distanced herself from the role, claiming she was not the “border czar.” Later, amidst rising criticism, she portrayed herself as tough on border security, a claim that stands in stark contrast to the reality of increased illegal crossings and unchecked issues that continue to plague the region.
A Pattern of Avoidance
Harris’s approach to public communication is equally troubling. Unlike her predecessor, who was known for engaging with the media, Harris has often avoided press conferences and in-depth interviews. This avoidance became particularly evident when she opted to skip two out of three debates, raising eyebrows about her capability to handle the rigorous demands of the presidency.
Her rare interactions with the press have been marked by avoidance of tough questions, especially on pressing issues like immigration, inflation, and crime. In a recent rally, Donald Trump highlighted this by pointing out Harris’s inability to handle a press conference for even ten minutes without faltering.
The Media’s Soft Touch
The media’s leniency towards Harris has not gone unnoticed. While they relentlessly grilled Trump on every statement, Harris has often been given a pass. This double standard raises concerns about the media’s impartiality and its role in perpetuating the narrative Harris wishes to portray, rather than the stark realities that unfold daily under her watch.
Copying Without Shame: The Tax on Tips Scandal
Recently, Kamala Harris has attempted to position herself as a champion for the working class by promising to eliminate federal taxes on tips for service industry workers—a proposal strikingly similar to one previously made by Donald Trump. This move, revealed during a rally at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, has been criticized as a blatant attempt to pilfer Trump’s ideas in a desperate bid to curry favor with voters.
Trump’s original proposal was a genuine effort to alleviate the financial burdens on service workers. In contrast, Harris’s track record and her sudden interest in cutting taxes for these workers seem nothing more than a political stunt, aimed at distracting from her usual policy of raising taxes. Her promises are seen as hollow, with little intention of actual implementation, reflecting a pattern of deceptive practices and empty rhetoric.
A Leadership in Question
Beyond the border and tax issues, Harris’s leadership on other national issues has been underwhelming. From the economic strategies to handle inflation to decisive actions on national security, her contributions have been minimal, often echoing the administration’s lines without a clear stance of her own. This has led many to question her effectiveness as a leader capable of steering the country through crises.
Final Thoughts
As we assess the political landscape, it becomes increasingly clear that Kamala Harris’s tenure as Vice President is fraught with discrepancies between her public persona and her actual effectiveness. Her handling of the border crisis, avoidance of the press, and the media’s protective stance are not just isolated issues but symptoms of a broader problem—a leader who is more a creation of political theater than a substantive policymaker.
Her leadership style and decisions—or lack thereof—pose the question of her readiness and ability to govern at the highest levels. As Americans, it is critical to question and scrutinize our leaders, ensuring that their public personas align with their actions and policies.
What are your thoughts? Is Kamala Harris the political leader America needs, or is she the greatest lie ever told? Sound off in the comments below and let’s discuss the future of our nation’s leadership.
Has any democrat ever told the truth?
Harris has never been much of anything, even back when she was under Willie Brown, literally! The only reason she was OBiden’s VP pick was so he could have a woman of color. And I might add that she ain’t black! She is all showboat with zero substance.
you are correct … out with her ..
I have to agree with SteveB here. He said it all. Read what Judge Joe Brown said about Harris. She doesn’t know the meaning of telling the truth.
The thing I cannot wrap my head around is the fact that smart Democrats know she is a liar. Not only do they tolerate it, they embrace it, knowing full well she is nothing but an empty suit. They didn’t like her in 2020 and just a few weeks before Joe decided not to run again they were tying to figure out how to dump her off the ‘24 ticket. Now these Same people are treating her as the 2nd coming of Obama. She has no platform and certainly no history of accomplishments.
You’re right on with your statement of Camel-face being treated as the second coming of Obama. It won’t surprise me that if she plays the race and sex cards just like in ’08, 12, and 16 while the media calls us ‘racists’ and ‘sexists’ for not supporting her.
because they think that people are stupid … who in their right mind , would vote for these two Marxists ?
Shamala 1 and Walz the false 2 …end the clown show .
“In the realm of politics, truth often takes a back seat to rhetoric, but few have mastered this art as thoroughly as Vice President Kamala Harris.”
Poorly worded. Just because Harris lies all the time does not mean she has mastered the art of lying or rhetoric. She is actually a mess when it comes to both.
Her rhetoric is more often described as gibberish or a word salad and she shows none of the skills of liars who are actually skilled at deceiving others.
Her accomplishments are almost exclusively limited to getting elected and in every case her election has had more to do with others helping her versus it occurring based on her being a skilled candidate.
Now if she could only find a relative that was eaten by cannibals, lol!
Kamala Harris is not only a liar but will use any means to climb the political ladder to success. She was Willie Brown’s mistress, knowing but not caring he was a married man. He positioned her in California politics to do his bidding and insured she was successful in her climb with high paying salaries and advancing her career. She has never had an original idea, ie: no tax on tips which was proposed by Donald Trump. Flip flopping on her decision to end fracking, her war on fossil fuel industry, the border, etc. She and her VP pick are nothing but Marxists that will destroy our freedoms and our country. She will continue the policies that have brought record breaking inflation, high crime, war in Europe and the Middle East. You only have to compare the four years of the Trump administration to our present situation to know we were better off then, then we are today! You don’t elect a president on his personality, but by his accomplishments. Think before you vote!!! Better then vs now!!! Easy answer!!!
bravo … Trump 2024
loud and proud .
Call it the Serv -Pro candidacy. Anything that is potentially damaging make it like it never even happened.
The words integrity and decisiveness have no connection with reality where Harris is concerned. She and those words should never be mentioned in the same context. She doesn’t know their meaning. It is a sad note that she is the best the democrat party has to offer. And Tim Walz is even worse!
The greatest lie is Barry Soetoro aka Barack Hussein Obama,the Laughing Hyena #2
The DEM’S are a scary bunch!!!!!
She will lie to get elected & then “flip flop” if she becomes President. Right now, she is hiding in her basement to avoid interviews. I’m sure the “debate” will be outlined in her favor & she will probably know the questions ahead of time. I can’t believe any American still wants 4 more years of this economy and weakness.
