On Wednesday’s broadcast of CNN’s “OutFront,” Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) responded to 2024 Democratic presidential candidate Vice President Kamala Harris abandoning her support for banning fracking and Medicare for all that she expressed during the 2020 race by stating that “we’re dealing with the issues that are right in front of us.”
CNN host Kaitlan Collins asked, “You and Vice President Harris both ran in the 2019 Democratic primary — for the 2020 election I should say, in 2019. She has changed her position on Medicare for all, banning fracking, things that you were once in agreement on. I wonder what you make of that. Is that — are you okay with that, or is it cold, hard, political calculus of where the electorate is now? What do you make of that?”

They’re just lying.
If she meant any of these supposed flip flops, they would lose all their leftist base.
Her base knows it’s bs.
As the old leftist said:
“The issue is not the issue. The revolution is the issue.”
They could not care less about issues.
They want power—any way they can get it—and don’t care what they have to say to get it.
We always hear from the usual demonrat clowns. Why do we rarely if ever hear from these clowns?
Martin Heinrich, Ben Ray Luján, Jack Reed, Brian Schatz, Tom Carper, Laphonza Butler, Jon Ossoff?
She changed her position this month. She will change her position on election day back to what it was prior.
Dealing with the issues in front of them means, saying what is popular with the voters today. It’s easier to do that if you have no principles that would hinder your day to day maneuvering.
They are both fickle women. Comrade Kamala will pick whatever lane she thinks will give her a win. If she wins, she will go back to her commie agenda lane- open borders, tax cuts for her rich Hollywood donors, more taxes on the middle class and will rob taxpayers to support illegal aliens who will live better than the middle class——-redistribution of wealth like you’ve never seen.
She doesn’t even have to switch back. She won’t “ban” fracking, but she’ll make it impossible.
Her plan to “control” the border is to let millions in legally.
This flipping by Kamala makes me mad.
She will get lots of sympathy and support, avoid the Pennsylvania outrage over ending fracking, and after she’s elected she will go full speed ahead on attacking fossil fuel companies and gas car and gas stoves as President.
If she changed to go for fracking last week, she can change to go against fracking again next time.
Like “I am telling the truth now about how I was lying before.”
Biden did the same to coal miners. He said he wasn’t going after them and that was MAGA talk and then got elected and absolutely destroyed the industry just like oil and car manufacturers. The problem is that they believe candidates BS! It’s so sad and maddening.
Harris was against fracking because she believed it causes environmental issues and encourages fossil fuel use, which exacerbates climate change. If we had a functional media (and if she actually we’re willing to answer questions) they would ask her which of those has changed. Does fracking no longer cause environmental issues? Does increases fossil fuel use no longer exacerbate climate change?
This would expose the lie of her flip-flop. Similarly with the flip-flop on single payer. Of course our media won’t do this so she can get away with it.
However much you think you hate the DemonRat party... you don’t hate them nearly enough.
