Kamala Trying To Cancel The Debate?
In a recent appearance on Newsmax, presidential adviser Dick Morris suggested that Vice President Kamala Harris’ reluctance to engage in the upcoming debate might be a strategic move to avoid addressing pressing issues directly with the American public. Morris argued that Harris’ hesitation to participate could be a calculated effort to sidestep a potentially challenging debate environment where she would be required to defend her record and policies.
Morris, speaking on “Saturday Report,” implied that the Vice President’s avoidance tactics were an attempt to evade tough questions that could be pivotal in shaping public perception. “She’s trying to find a way out of this debate,” Morris asserted. “For her, this debate could be a turning point.”
According to Morris, Harris’ preference for fewer debates and her insistence on limiting direct confrontations with the opposition highlight her strategy to minimize exposure to challenging questions. Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump, in contrast, has insisted on adhering to the agreed-upon debate format, emphasizing the importance of this debate as a platform for clear and direct exchanges.
Morris also mentioned a detailed memo he prepared for Trump, outlining key points to emphasize during the debate. He shared some of the critical arguments he believes Trump should present. The suggested talking points focus on the consequences of Harris’ policies, painting a stark picture of her vision for America. Morris proposed that Trump address issues such as:
- The impact of eliminating private health insurance in favor of a government-run system, leading to long waits for medical care, as seen in other countries with similar systems.
- The promotion of critical race theory in schools, the associated racial implications, and the higher tax burdens for individuals.
- The controversial criminal justice reforms, including reduced penalties for shoplifting and the impact of no-bail policies on public safety.
- The strain on Medicare and Medicaid from the influx of foreign nationals, including illegal immigrants, and the resultant financial challenges.
- The implications of banning fracking, resulting in higher gas prices and inflation, alongside welfare policies with no work requirements or time limits.
- The effects of progressive policies on school curricula and sports, including concerns about gender identity and fairness in athletic competitions.
“This is the messaging strategy I’m advising,” Morris stated. “I haven’t gone over it with Trump yet, but I believe it will resonate with voters and effectively challenge Harris’ record.”
Morris’ commentary underscores the high stakes of the upcoming debate and the strategic maneuvers involved as both sides prepare for what could be a defining moment in the campaign.
