When asked a direct question how she would deal with rising prices and inflation. Harris answer was the same word phrases and no direct answer.What now?
You didn't watch her interview, did you? You're just picking up the Fox and NY Post talking points.
Harris actually gave a reasonably detailed response about families grappling with costs that touched on price gouging, helping new homeowners struggling with housing costs with funds toward a down payment, making it easier for individuals to fund small business start-ups that would help bring costs down, and extending and expanding child tax credits.
While you may not agree with her -- and, from what you've written, I doubt you actually listened to her -- but it wasn't the "same word phrases" and it was a direct answer.

The wall was a deterrent and Mexico agreed with Trump to hold the illegals in Mexico to be processed in a more orderly fashion as opposed to the Border Czar’s you all come, unvetted, criminals, gang members, drug runners, etc. Not to worry, the Border Czar will clothed you, feed you, house you, medical care and educated your kids. The American taxpayer will foot the bill.Talk about word salad.
Here are the facts: Harris has never been "Border Czar" but border encounters are down 55%, down significantly below the numbers we saw in Trump's last month in office:
Border Encounters
July 2024 January 2021
56,408 75,316
Illegal entry, based on border arrests, was lower in July 2024 than during Donald Trump’s last month in office, undermining the former president’s campaign message on immigration and border security. Government data confirm that recent immigration actions by the Biden administration and Mexico’s government have reduced Border Patrol encounters at the Southwest border, a proxy for illegal entry. Donald Trump argued he left office with the “most secure” border in history, but analysts pointed out that was untrue even before the July 2024 border numbers.Shelters on the southern U.S. border are seeing sharp declines in migrants seeking refuge, by as much 60% to 80% compared with last year.
Which is why Fox "News" and others have all but stopped talking about the southern border.
