I saw this AM in the NYT that Bret Stephens posted his take, "A Vague, Vacuous TV Interview Didn't Help Kamala Harris." I don't subscribe so I couldn't read it, but it was an interesting title coming from him. I would say with the high-spirited convention over, she's peaked. It will be a slosh of word salads and Trumpisms from here onward.

Sure seems that way.

Just to clarify Harris' views on fracking:

1. In 2019 she absolutely wanted to ban fracking,

2. In 2024 she is not in favor of banning fracking,

3. According to her interview, her views (on fracking) have not changed.

Someday some college class will use this interview in their coursework on logic.

I also understand that Harris stated that her views have not changed. Apparently only the false sales pitches have. Perhaps the reason Harris seems so confused about policy is that she derives them from Das Kapital, that foundational work for so much of the San Francisco area political class.

Sounds like a lot of nothing signifying nothing. It also sounds like both of them don't hesitate to lie to the people and won't hesitate to lie to the people if they are elected. It is interesting that the interview was over 40 minutes and they edited it down to, what, the most exciting 18 minutes? Relatively exciting that is. Note that Dana Bash's first husband was chief of staff for the CIA and later became chief of staff for the DOD under Obama. And he was also a signer to the letter of CIA-connected officials who falsely claimed that the Hunter Biden laptop story was Russian disinformation. Lies upon lies upon lies. And illustrating that the line between CNN and the Democratic Party is a very dotted one. Compared to the 336 million population, our ruling class is a relatively small group of policymakers. I'm guessing less than 10000 anyway.

... terrible things keep happening, and leaders being put-forth-elected just continue on w-all-same

... election after election belief that change is promised-coming when it never truly does

... D or R this time around again looks to be more-of-same

... having enough, not doing this anymore... not to be selecting either one of these 'choices'... time to move away
