Gov. Gretchen Whitmer Tried to Defend Kamala Harris’ Policy Stances - It Was an Utter Train Wreck By Jeff Charles Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer, co-chair of Vice President Kamala Harris’ campaign, tried desperately to defend her candidate’s recently articulated policy stances during an appearance on NBC News’ “Meet the Press” on Sunday. It did not go well. Host Kristen Welker and Whitmer discussed a series of policies, including Harris’ proposed “price gouging” ban on food companies, immigration, healthcare, and others. The train wreck began when Welker asked about President Joe Biden’s “historically low approval ratings” and whether Harris “should be doing more to distance herself from President Biden.” Whitmer replied, saying that the president “is going to go down as one of the greatest presidents we’ve had in a long time in this country” and that Harris “has been a big part of this administration.” “They've been partners. They've delivered for the American people. So I think we've got to tell that story,” Whitmer said, somehow with a straight face. The conversation turned to Harris’ declaration that, if elected, she would institute a ban on price gouging for food companies ostensibly to counteract the effects of inflation on everyday Americans. Welker brought up recent criticism of the policy coming from the left and right and asked whether it is the appropriate solution to the inflation problem. Whitmer answered by dodging the question, saying, “People are reading too much into what has been put out there.” More at the link: https://redstate.com/jeffc/2024/08/18/gov-gretchen-whitmer-tries-to-defend-kamala-harris-policy-stances-it-was-an-utter-train-wreck-n2178234

Why is it okay to compare Trump — and indeed every GOP presidential candidate over the last 75 years — to a leading National Socialist, but it’s not okay to point out Kamala’s predilection for International Socialism https://instapundit.com/229455/

I'm with Norm.

Amen. ,

Not a surprise to those with their eyes open. Majority of antisemitic incidents committed by leftists, not Islamists or neo-Nazis, research find With the Democratic National Convention next week, thousands of pro-Palestinian protesters are expected to protest the event in Chicago. With antisemitism rising across the globe, from assaults to graffiti, a new analysis finds the political motivation of perpetrators skews decisively to the left, with extreme progressives far more likely to commit such attacks as compared to Islamists or far-right activists like neo-Nazis. The new findings come as the Democratic National Committee braces for potential unrest from anti-Israel protesters at its nominating convention next week in Chicago just days after presumptive nominee Kamala Harris was confronted at a New York fundraiser by a protest that required some arrests. https://justthenews.com/politics-policy/polling/majority-antisemitic-incidents-were-done-far-leftists-not-muslims-combat

Enough 🦫 🦫 🦫 Back to Kamala's proposals. .

But it 'sounded' good. .

Politics as Usual: Tim Walz is a Gun Control Opportunist. In announcing his support for an assault weapon ban after the Parkland shootings, [Tim Walz] told The Star Tribune: “I’m not just asking to be the congressman from the First Congressional District. I’m looking at a broader state with broader issues, broader population densities, and I think as a legislator I’ve been proud to say if the facts dispute our ideology, change the ideology.” As Mr. Walz sought to rebut charges that he had only recently altered his views out of political expediency, he pointed to procedural votes he had taken in Congress in 2015 and 2016. They were less significant than he implied. Virtually all of them were party-line roll calls to allow debate on gun controls, not votes on the underlying bills. These parliamentary maneuvers had no chance of succeeding in the Republican-controlled House, but they would allow Democrats to accuse the G.O.P. of blocking politically popular proposals. That is why advocates on both sides of the gun issue gave them no credence at the time. Bryan Strawser, chairman of the Minnesota Gun Owners Caucus, said procedural votes that went nowhere did not matter. “I would see these votes and his mention of them when he ran for governor as an attempt to rewrite the script and position himself in the best possible light for his new political ambitions,” Mr. Strawser said, adding that Mr. Walz had “always voted to support gun rights” until it no longer suited him. https://www.nytimes.com/2024/08/15/us/politics/tim-walz-gun-control.html https://www.shootingnewsweekly.com/2024/08/18/politics-as-usual-tim-walz-is-a-gun-control-opportunist/
