If this election comes down to any one issue, it won't be abortion or immigration. It will be the economy.
Yet, Harris' economic proposals are more about pandering than solutions. Her plan, for example, to hand out $25,000 to first-time homebuyers is meant to attract younger voters. But how much would that giveaway add to the already soaring budget deficit? How would it affect inflation? What would it mean to the affordability of housing in the long term? Harris' guesses are as good as mine.
What Harris wants voters to forget
During her speech, Harris criticized former President Donald Trump's personal wealth and portrayed herself as an advocate for the middle class.
The Democratic presidential nominee also pushed a plan to boost manufacturing while ripping on Trump's economic record : "All told, almost 200,000 manufacturing jobs were lost during his presidency, starting before the pandemic hit, making Trump one of the biggest losers ever on manufacturing."
But if her manufacturing plan is simple common sense, then why hasn't the Biden-Harris administration been following it for the past four years?

She's not for anyone but herself. She's telling people what they want to hear so she can get votes. Once she's in the White house she'll say I never said anything like that and screw the people.
