Progressive Americans love the trendy word “reimagine.” They want a new vision of policing, taxation, the Supreme Court, reparations for slavery, environmental “insecurity” (climate change), and free expression, among other things. The queen of this posture is Vice President Kamala Harris.
So let’s imagine dropping the “re” — what, if elected, a President Harris would impose on America? Forget about her recent move towards moderate views – that’s just smoke. The woman speaks the truth when she says her “values” haven’t changed.
You may remember the Biden administration telling us the border was “secure.” They did that for years. Ms. Kamala agreed entirely. But then, with the 2024 election approaching, it suddenly wasn’t secure, and Democrats scrambled to support “get tough” legislation. But the Chuck Schumer bill was not tough at all. It was a ruse with no punishment for breaking immigration law and millions of foreign nationals admitted without supervision.
When astute people opposed the ridiculous bill, the Dems blamed THEM for the border catastrophe. Kamala Harris has cheerleaded that to exhaustion.
As president, she would push full amnesty and pretty much ignore border security. Imagine.
Then there’s abortion, her most passionate cause because she is a protector of women. Any limitations on it? No. Should parents be informed when girls under 18 request an abortion? No.
Does the vice president respect the Supreme Court’s position in deciding Constitutional law? Absolutely not.
Now imagine a new movie called “When Harry Becomes Sally.” Tom Hanks morphs into Kim Kardashian. Kamala Harris has reimagined the film with a super progressive twist: tax dollars pay for Tom’s transition! Yay! And Americans will pay for convicts as well as undocumented folks to make the big switch as well!
How about policing? The vice president doesn’t want to prosecute drug crimes or public rioters or shoplifters who boost less than $1,000 per theft, or folks who commit public disorder, or psychotic students who menace colleges.
But if you block access to an abortion center, hello jail time.
It’s not hard to imagine Harris’ foreign policy either.
She alleges working “round the clock” to get a Gaza ceasefire. Working on what? A two-state “solution,” she says. But there is only one state: Israel. The poor Palestinian people are controlled by murderous terrorists who are working “round the clock” to kill people.
Imagine that, Kamala.
According to the vice president, the incredibly chaotic and destructive withdrawal from Afghanistan was fine. No problem. You don’t need much imagination to know that 13 American military people killed in the debacle should be alive today.
This is the second consecutive column warning Americans about Ms. Reimagine. I am compelled to chronicle her because of the danger she poses to the country. Yes, Donald Trump needs to reassess his presentation. But his vision is largely traditional, not radical.
The Harris campaign is mimicking Warren Harding, a disastrous president, as my book “Confronting the Presidents” proves.
Americans voted for Harding not knowing anything about his policies because he refused all interviews. Sound familiar?
But that couldn’t happen again, could it?
One can only imagine.
