Vice President Kamala Harris on Wednesday refused to explain how she intends to pay for her pricey economic plan if Republicans in Congress block her proposed presidential agenda, one of several questions she dodged during her first one-on-one interview with a major news network since becoming the Democratic nominee.
“If you can’t raise corporate taxes, or if the GOP takes control of the Senate, where do you get the money to do that? Do you still go for those plans and borrow?” MSNBC host Stephanie Ruhle asked Harris about her handout-heavy agenda.
“Well, but we’re going to have to raise corporate taxes,” the Democratic nominee responded, without explaining how she intends to do that without congressional support.
“We’re going to have to make sure that the biggest corporations and billionaires pay their fair share,” Harris continued. “That’s just it. It’s about paying their fair share.”
When Ruhle asked Harris how she would ensure that businesses hit with corporate tax hikes don’t leave the US, the vice president claimed that CEOs are supportive of her plan to raise the corporate rate from 21% to 28%.
“Well, listen, I work with a lot of CEOs,” Harris said. “I have spent a lot of time with CEOs. And I’m going to tell you that the business leaders who are actually part of the engine of America’s economy agree that people should pay their fair share.
“They also agree that when we look at a plan such as mine — that is about investing in the middle class, investing in new industries, investing and bringing down costs, investing in entrepreneurs like small businesses — that the overall economy is stronger and everyone benefits,” she added.

Kommie, when are you going to be paying your fair share?
Why have the Democratics been hiding such brilliance from US?

Exactly! they’ve been in power for several years. If this were really a “slam dunk” economic idea, why haven’t they done it by now?
“i think ruhle snookered harris”
Ruhle’s interview might be the kill shot for Harris, along with the Oprah interview.
Dems need a facelift, same meaningless talking points for decades.
She’ll pay for it by raising taxes and printing more money.

We’re going to have to make sure that the biggest corporations and billionaires pay their fair share,” Harris continued.
Joey chuckles while counting cash.
To top it off she wants to go after those same corporations for gouging in an effort to reduce those same “greedy profits”. The result would be even less revenue to tax.
Yes, half the public is ignorant enough to believe her.

She is so FULL OF IT that there should be a sewage reclamation truck following her everywhere.
