If she’s elected president, Kamala Harris pledges to spend hundreds of millions of dollars on the wall along the southern border — a project she once opposed and called “un-American” during the Trump administration.

    Just that gross violation of human rights vibe…

    She’s really going to fuck around trying to court republican voters and alienate her base so trump has a shot. I legitimately thought it was a short enough timeline that she couldn’t fuck this up.

    This is what I get for being an optimist.

        They are doing it on purpose. It’s not a mistake.

        Right after Biden withdrew, they didn’t really have talking points together; now they have arrived at some they can amplify and start hammering on. The truth of what she did or didn’t say is 1,000% irrelevant.

          And almost every other commenter in this thread is uncritically and reflexively propagating the misrepresentation as truth. This country is uber-fucked.

            It’s really not tho (or not for that reason). Any time you see that sudden flood of comments with the exact same consensus, see how many accounts are involved in the flood, and check the voting totals on the article in question. OH LOOK

            If Lemmy comments could vote, then that would be a massive problem yes, but they can’t

              I hear you. It’s just frustrating to see so many supposedly enlightened “leftists” display such incredibly poor judgment.
