And Kamala Harris was labeled far-left for campaigning on a Trump-lite platform on immigration and the economy that appealed to no one.

I'm not sure if "free sex changes for illegal immigrants" counts as "Trump-lite"

Your mind was really warped by conservative propaganda wasn’t it? Amazing how effective it is on a certain type of person. Reality just doesn’t matter at all to you does it?

Look, I voted for Kamala and donated >$100 to her campaign. And I agree that it was absolutely not in any way the focus of her campaign.

But it's not lying to point out that she was for that in 2019. The fact that the video was made into a campaign ad doesn't make it false.

It's not propaganda if it's true.

"free sex changes for illegal immigrants" is a campaign slogan. That you are engaging with this topic at a slogan-level means you are not here to really here for curious inquiry. You sound like a election ad.

I am begging people on the left to stop slandering "we will enforce the law" as a right-wing position. It is not, shouldn't be, and the right doesn't deserve to get credit for it.

Kamala wasn't "Trump-lite" any more than AOC is "Stalin-lite". The differences between the two are fucking categorical.
