Vice President Kamala Harris has not held a press conference on issues facing American families since joining the presidential race 71 days ago.
Harris’s attempts to weave and dodge suggest her record is a political liability. President Joe Biden stated Wednesday that he delegated “everything” as commander in chief to Harris, including foreign policy and domestic policy.
Harris had many chances to hold a press conference. Thursday was not an exception when Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky visited Washington, DC. Taking no questions, Harris bolted from the podium and directed Zelensky out of the room.
Harris has only conducted five television interviews, for which she faced a backlash for avoiding questions and failing to provide solutions to ongoing problems under the Biden-Harris administration. “As she is putting forward a ‘new way forward,’ she is currently in office,” RealClearPolitics White House reporter Philip Wegmann told Fox News. “She currently has access to the levers of power.”
Since joining the race in July, Harris has allegedly changed her view, outright flip-flopped, or has an unknown position in 12 areas:
- Decriminalizing prostitution (Refuses to say if she still supports)
- Death penalty (Refuses to say if she still opposes)
- Amnesty for so-called “Dreamers” (Refuses to say if she still supports)
- Banning plastic straws (Flip-flopped)
- A mandate for only producing electric and hydrogen vehicles by 2035 (Unknown)
- Banning fracking (Flip-flopped)
- Gun confiscation through a buyback program (Allegedly no longer supports, according to anonymous campaign spokesperson)
- Decriminalizing illegally crossing the southern border (Allegedly no longer supports, according to anonymous campaign spokesperson)
- Reparations (Unknown)
- Building a border wall (Formerly opposed, now allegedly supports, according to anonymous campaign spokesperson)
- A federal jobs guarantee (Allegedly no longer supports, according to anonymous campaign spokesperson)
- Medicare for All (Flip-flopped)
