Kamala Harris tries to distance herself from Biden in yet another policy flip-flop: ‘Everything about her campaign is fake’

Vice President Kamala Harris is furiously trying to “distance” herself from President Biden’s record — while also disavowing the far-left policies she heartily embraced just a few years ago.

The result is a campaign run entirely on style over substance since Harris took the Democratic mantle from Biden last month.

And Democratic campaign operatives warn that she risks voters catching on — and realizing she’s selling only cynical political opportunism.

“It’s a marketing strategy that is TV-esque,” one senior Democratic aide said. “With such a short timeline now, policy matters less than personality.

“She’s going to almost exclusively look at a voter like a consumer — and sell, sell, sell!” the aide quipped.

“Do I think that’s a long-term strategy? No,” the aide admitted. “But I think the plan is win and figure it out.”

Another Democratic campaign operative told The Post Wednesday that Harris was wisely trying to break with Biden’s economic policies due to his “horrible” polling numbers — and is prepared to jettison any of their administration’s talking points that don’t have “strong” public support.

It is sad that a large percentage of voters are style over substance type of people. I hope we have not DEI’d and dumbed down the electorate so much that we would lose this election.

As per the comment from the story below, I don't think they have to worry about the majority of voters "catching on". I base this on the idiots I run into all around up here in NH.

"Democratic campaign operatives warn that she risks voters catching on ..."

I feel that same vibe in the air. She’s a loser, and they know it. They only played nice with her to avoid having the rabid leftists scream racism.
Now, they can say they gave her consideration. Perhaps the choice of Walz will be the hit that sinks her ship? He’s a disaster.

The DIMs are the “writing piles of maggots” party. LOL! More popcorn.

She’d get eaten alive on stage by somebody who knows her record and has the guts to articulate. If she were to win, she’d be very difficult to handle by those who put her there. I hear she’s pretty mean and abusive.

"They" have been doing that since America the idea was even founded. A government of the people, for the people. What a profound concept for a world that had only ever known slavery and serfdom.

Who is the "they" is what modern Marxists ask. It is those entities that oppose self determination. Chiefly, Marxists and Islamists. Freedom is diametrically opposed to both.
