      She began on a progressive platform with a side of identity politics. She sold out her progressive platform during the campaign to position herself for, then secure the VP nomination.

      But, we don’t need specifics to be certain any given US federal politician is absolute trash. They’re all elected on corporate money.

      Ideologically, she’s a corporate shill that incarcerated thousands of people for minor posessions and then claimed to be against such policies while never offering any amnesty or apology. Politically I have major disagreeances with both parties platforms. Socially, I think Harris leads to some Republican bullshit scheme.

      Also, to everyone that keeps trying to gaslight America. EVERYONE HATES HARRIS, SHE WILL DRIVE AWAY ON THE FENCE VOTERS AND YOUNGER APATHETIC VOTERS.

        She did her job and applied the law as it was, she wasn’t the one who had the power to change those laws, the people chose to elect people who didn’t change them.

          Prosecutors have discretion about who they charge, and what sentence they seek.
