  • This article says that Harris’s campaign platforms were released in early September which is more than two weeks away from the election.

    https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/4869169-harris-campaign-site-policy-positions/

    Article says:

    The Harris campaign site’s section on the economy outlines proposals to cut taxes for middle class families; make rent more affordable and homeownership more attainable; grow small businesses and invest in entrepreneurs, among other sections. And, it ends with a contrast to “Trump’s Project 2025 agenda,” which it argues would “jack up prices.”

    This contradicts:

    No, but she’d continue to allow her golf buddies to price gouge you for everything from food, to electricity, to rent and stand idly by while you’re evicted and criminalized for being homeless.


  • Would Harris be turning tariffs on and off randomly like a light-switch?

    Would Harris be ordering ICE to deport innocent people?

    Would Harris sign the so-called “big beautiful bill” tax cut to the wealthy?

    Would Harris appoint horribly unqualified TV hosts to run our government?

    Would Harris cut aid off to Ukraine and ambush Zelenskyy and other world leaders in the white house?

    Would Harris be trying to end temporary protected status to people who may get killed if they go back to their home country?

    Would Harris have her own meme coin that she uses to accept bribes?

    I really hope the passenger or passengers are OK. Being stuck in a burning car has to be one of the worst ways to go.

    This is why it’s so sick that Musk puts profits over safety. Elon Musk doesn’t care about the people who burn alive in his cars. If you drive a Tesla this could one day be your fate and you may not be able to escape. Teslas are designed to shut off power in a car accident yet they also use electric door handles. See the issue with that? They do have an emergency escape option but in an accident with all the adrenaline and emotion it may be hard to find them or use them. Certain Tesla models do not have an emergency escape option in the back. Please do not have passengers especially children in the back if your Tesla doesn’t have an emergency escape.

    If for some reason you own a Tesla: please for your own safety regularly practice exiting the vehicle using the emergency escape. I do not want this to happen to you or anybody. Also I know a car is a very major purchase but if it’s well within your means or something you could afford without a big impact on your finances you may want to consider getting another car when you can.
