Harris Dodges on How ‘Gouging’ Plan that Only Applies in Emergencies Helps with Inflation, Admits ‘Most’ Don’t Gouge
Breitbart ^ | 10/23/2024 | IAN HANCHETT

Posted on 10/23/2024 6:55:48 PM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

During a town hall on CNN on Wednesday, 2024 Democratic presidential candidate Vice President Kamala Harris responded to a question on how her plan to combat “price gouging” on groceries “during emergencies or times of crisis” would help with the fact that grocery prices have just been high every day for years by stating that there should be accountability “when companies are taking advantage of the desperation and the need of the American people,” and stating that “most” companies don’t gouge.

Host Anderson Cooper asked, “I looked at your plan. You talk about going after price gougers, and I’m quoting from the plan, ‘on essential goods during emergencies or times of crisis.’ I get that. How does that help though…with prices that, for years, the grocery price has just been high?”

Of course she dodges.
She is incapable of giving a straight answer.

So raising taxes isn’t gouging?

I don’t think it was calling out Harris. Much like her recent interviews, they are trying to help Harris by having her explain her ticket in a positive light. She can’t. It’s either “Trump is evil” or some worthless word salad.

"...there should be accountability 'when companies are taking advantage of the desperation and the need of the American people'"

She is by far the stupidest person to ever run for POTUS. How the hell could you possibly make that work? Who would be the judges that a company was "taking advantage of the desperation and the need of the American people"?

Freaking idiot. There is no way she is qualified to be VP or run for POTUS.

In WW II, Roosevelt created the "Office of Price Administration" which lasted until two years after the war. Even with HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS of people in that department they could not make it work.

“ Much like her recent interviews, they are trying to help Harris by having her explain her ticket in a positive light”

This is so typical of the propaganda media. They act like a defense attorney for Democrats providing them with the opportunity to make their position known with never a challenge.. They act like a prosecutor for Republicans with attack questions and challenges to their answers. .

I’m not sure if the NBC interviewer prompting Kamala, when she could not remember the name of the state Michigan, helped her however. I think we are going to see that in memes and ads. Kamala added to her own problems by saying something to indicate that she was tired.

WH Official: A huge problem in the Kamala camp is different advisors had different answers for everything, and it confused her. There was never one big meeting where everyone agreed on policy. That’s why she cant even answer the Biden question

Oh, she has core values. Just none that she would tell the Country about, prior to the election.

She doesn’t have a ‘plan’. She has a bunch of ‘want-to’ and ‘promise-you’ words. No specificity, legal method or how all of it will be implemented. IOW, she’s full of more sh!t than a Christmas Turkey.
