Vance says voters see Harris as ‘more of the same’ instead of ‘fresh start’ – Washington Examiner
In a recent discussion, Senator J.D. Vance criticized Vice President Kamala Harris, suggesting that voters perceive her as a continuation of the Biden administration rather than a fresh alternative. Vance, who is running with Donald Trump in the upcoming 2024 election, claimed that Harris’s support has plateaued, attributing this to an overestimation of her appeal since she became the Democratic nominee. He dismissed the idea that she could effectively manage inflation, likening the situation to an inappropriate appointment in a different context. Vance argued that promoting Harris would simply perpetuate Biden’s failed policies, and he believes many Americans will reject this notion in favor of a return to Trump’s leadership. He also questioned the validity of polls showing Harris leading Trump, alleging that such data is manipulated to suppress Republican turnout. he asserted that Harris’s campaign urges voters to forget the positive experiences under Trump’s presidency, which he deems unacceptable given the current economic challenges.
Vance says voters see Harris as ‘more of the same’ instead of ‘fresh start’
Sen. J.D. Vance (R-OH) argued voters view a presidency under Vice President Kamala Harris as “more of the same” they experienced under President Joe Biden, and that voters will instead want to go back to former President Donald Trump’s leadership.
Vance, Trump’s 2024 running mate, argued that Harris’s campaign has experienced a “sugar high” since she stepped in for Biden as the Democratic Party’s 2024 nominee, citing the Trump campaign’s internal data that Harris’s support has “leveled off.” He contended that voters do not buy the idea of Harris addressing inflation as president, joking that Harris being in charge of inflation policy would be like Jeffrey Epstein being in charge of human trafficking policy.
“The American people are much smarter than that,” Vance said on Fox News Sunday with Shannon Bream. “They don’t buy the idea that Kamala Harris represents a fresh start. She is more of the same. It is doubling down on the failed policies of the Biden administration to give Kamala Harris a promotion rather than to fire her, which is what I think most Americans are going to do on November.”
The vice presidential candidate also dismissed polling that has placed Harris ahead of Trump, arguing press outlets release “fake polls to drive down Republican turnout” ahead of elections. He also said his campaign is in “a very, very good spot,” and that all it needs to do is make it to the finish line.
Regarding the Harris campaign, Vance argued that the campaign’s case to voters is to “forget how good things were” under Trump’s leadership.
“We cannot give her more power and more influence; she’s just going to do more of the same, which has already made the affordability crisis for Americans very, very real,” Vance said.
During a campaign rally in Michigan, Vance deemed Harris’s presidential ticket as “fake” for making promises to improve the lives of voters even though Harris had already been vice president for almost four years. He also said Wednesday that he believes voters are “too smart” to vote for Harris come November.
Vance is set to debate Gov. Tim Walz (D-MN), Harris’s 2024 running mate, on Oct. 1 at the vice presidential debate, which will be hosted by CBS News. Trump and Harris, meanwhile, will participate in a presidential debate hosted by ABC News on Sept. 10.
