Harris Debate Strategy: This Is Not The Veep You're Looking For

Kamala Harris has a major problem heading into Tuesday night’s debate against Donald Trump. That is, she must deceive voters into buying her message that it’s time to move on from the status quo — when she is the status quo.

Following her falsehood-laden speech at the Democrat National Convention and lone sit-down interview with CNN’s Dana Bash, it’s become clear that Harris, the sitting vice president, is attempting to frame herself as the candidate of “change.” By regurgitating generic phrases like, “It’s time to turn the page,” the Democrat nominee hopes to sell the illusion that Trump — who hasn’t been in office for nearly four years — is to blame for the catastrophic failures wrought by the Biden-Harris administration.

If the recent polling is accurate, that strategy isn't working. And while I hesitate to assume she'll outright crash and burn tomorrow night, I doubt she's adept enough to successfully pull off this Jedi mind trick.
