Kamala Harris’ 2019 presidential campaign was so left-wing that even liberals in 2024 are struggling to believe her previous policy pledges – and some legitimately think Donald Trump was making them up when he criticized them.
Harris’ first attempt at the White House capitulated in 2019 with her campaign’s suspension paving the way for Joe Biden to secure the Democratic nomination and later the presidency.
Her second effort has contained a renewed focus while simultaneously ditching the most left-wing policies she once (publicly) stood for in an attempt to pretend to move to the center to make it easier to get elected. Harris’ far-left policies are so crazy that they’re surprising leftists – including leftist New Yorker writer Susan Glasser who penned an article criticizing Trump for supposedly making up Harris’ policy positions.
“[Trump’s] line about how the Vice-President ‘wants to do transgender operations on illegal aliens that are in prison’ was pretty memorable,” wrote Glasser. “What the hell was he talking about? No one knows, which was, of course, exactly Harris’s point.”
Fortunately, community notes came to the rescue. Harris did indeed support transgender operations for detainees.
In response to a questionnaire from the American Civil Liberties Union, Harris said, “I support policies ensuring that federal prisoners and detainees are able to obtain medically necessary care for gender transition, including surgical care, while incarcerated or detained.”
Conservatives on social media gave Glasser’s article the ridicule it deserves.
Some users even corrected her through CNN!
When CNN’s Andrew Kaczynski appeared on the network to discuss his article on Harris’ past stances, CNN’s Erin Burnett was visibly shocked on air to learn that Harris did in fact support gender transition surgeries for illegals.
“She actually said she supported that?” Burnett asked CNN colleague when he explained her support for “taxpayer-funded gender care and transition surgeries for detained migrants.” Kaczynski confirmed that this was true – and that she supported it for federal prisoners too.
And…whether she’s touting all that as her platform or goals – they are STILL her platform and goals. Nothing has changed, except the possibility that the left will defraud the election again, installing her into the Oval Office, and she’ll be implementing them through EOs and mandates.
