Harris explains in exclusive CNN interview why she’s shifted her position on key issues since her first run for president
CNN ^ | Aug 29, 2024 | Kevin Liptak

Vice President Kamala Harris on Thursday offered her most expansive explanation to date on why she’s changed some of her positions on fracking and immigration, telling CNN’s Dana Bash her values haven’t shifted but that her time as vice president provided new perspective on some of the country’s most pressing issues.

...

Pressed by Bash on her reversals on fracking and decriminalizing illegal border crossings, Harris sought to explain why her positions had changed.

...

“How should voters look at some of the changes that you’ve made?” Bash asked Harris. “Is it because you have more experience now and you’ve learned more about the information? Is it because you were running for president in a Democratic primary? And should they feel comfortable and confident that what you’re saying now is going to be your policy moving forward?”

Harris said despite the shifts in position, her values had not changed.

Unless her answer is “I’d do and say anything to get elected,” she’s lying.

My value around what we need to do to secure our border. That value has not changed.

Yep her value around securing the border is to not secure the border, that will not change.

She says her values have not changed, so I guess she’s still the same old stupid marxist she’s always been. And, too stupid to enunciate her policies, just say something stupid like her polices are her values, SHEESH

The ho is a liar. She shifted her position because she’s puking out what she knows the slow, uninformed, low intelligence idiots want to hear. The Morons of America.

So, in other words, Dana Bash coddled and spoon-fed her acceptable answers.

Naturally...

Worthless, multiple P.O.S.’s.

Ha! Pres Trump, just said, LIVE, in MI, that Comrade Kamala probably goes back to her room, and, gets sick to her stomach, for having to say the things she is being made to now say. She’s a Marxist.

LOLOL!!

What she is saying is that she never understood the issues. Her initial positions were uninformed. What we should conclude is that Harris is reflexively wrong.

her positions have changed to get elected

her values have not

so she will govern based on her values, ie original positions

thanks for clearing that up

“ her values had not changed”

No, but the value of a week’s groceries have changed.

Nothing new here. “Positions” are what she thinks will get her elected. “Values” are how she intends to act afterward.
