Over the past nearly four years, Vice President Kamala Harris and the Biden administration have created more crises than I can count.

Because it’s an election year, they are running around like firemen desperately trying to put out a fire. The only problem is, they’re the ones who lit the match. 

Now, less than a month out from the election, Harris is attempting to distance herself from the Biden dumpster fire, despite the fact that she was the tiebreaking vote on many of Biden’s signature bills.

While Harris’ campaign tries to reinvent her, she struggles explaining how she’d be any different from President Joe Biden on shows like “The View” and “The Late Show With Stephen Colbert.” Harris’ pitch to Americans? “Well, I’m obviously not Joe Biden.”

Don’t be fooled. Harris isn’t doing this song and dance because she had a change of heart. It’s not because she’s wised-up on her bad policy positions. No. It’s because Harris and the Democratic Party machine are willing to do—and say—anything to gain power.

They are willing to steamroll anyone—including their own voters—to achieve it. They don’t care who is hurt in the process.

America, Harris doesn’t care about you.

Take the Biden-Harris administration’s response to Hurricane Helene, the deadliest storm since Hurricane Katrina. Helene devastated many southeastern communities. What was Harris doing while disaster struck? She was out fundraising and campaigning on the West Coast.

Meanwhile, it took days for the federal government to adequately respond.

In the wake of the devastation, Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas claimed that Federal Emergency Management Agency funds needed to help affected communities were depleted.

How is that possible? Well, we know the Biden-Harris administration spent $641 million in taxpayer dollars helping nongovernmental organizations house illegal immigrants in the interior of our country. Billions more taxpayer dollars are being used to make sure illegal aliens have prepaid debit cards, cellphones, hotels, housing assistance, health care, food stamps, and leftover COVID-19 relief funds.

Since 2021, Harris has consistently prioritized illegal aliens over American citizens. Does this sound like someone who cares about Americans?

And that’s just the most recent example of Harris’ contempt for Americans.

She has consistently prioritized sending taxpayer dollars overseas instead of using them to protect American citizens. Harris has supported sending billions of hard-earned taxpayer dollars to prolong the devastating conflict in Ukraine. In total, the administration has approved roughly $175 billion to support Ukraine. But just five years ago, Democrats wouldn’t even approve $5.7 billion (3.3% of Ukraine funding) to secure our own country with a border wall because it was too “expensive.”  

Harris herself said that “billions of dollars for a border wall is a waste of money.”

“American taxpayers shouldn’t foot the bill for the president’s vanity project. We simply don’t need it,” she said.

According to Harris, foreign countries are more deserving of Americans’ money than Americans themselves and foreign borders more important than our own borders.

What has the porous southern border resulted in? It has unleashed waves of illegal immigrants stealing American jobs. It has lowered Americans’ wages, increased the cost of homes, and strained our health care system.

Border czar Harris’ weak position on the border has emboldened Mexican cartels to flood our communities with fentanyl, killing Americans at record rates. Human traffickers are more emboldened than ever. Violent crime at the hands of people who shouldn’t be in the country is surging.

Ask yourself: Would she allow this to happen if she cared about the safety and security of Americans?

Harris and the Democratic Party machine also continuously show a callous disregard for young, vulnerable Americans—the future generations of our country.

Harris has no issue with minors undergoing sex changes, or with confusing children’s impressionable minds with radical gender ideology in the classroom. She isn’t concerned about the harms associated with boys competing in girls’ sports or boys using girls’ locker rooms.

Is Harris someone who has the best interest of American children in mind?

The list goes on.

From failing to support our veterans at home, letting our farmers go under financially, or spending our country into oblivion leading to record-high inflation and prices, what has Kamala Harris done to show she cares about Americans?

The answer is nothing, because she doesn’t.

Throughout her career, Harris has said and done whatever it took to climb the next rung on the political ladder. Now, she’s flip-flopping on issues to conceal her record, all in an effort to win the White House.

She doesn’t care about the people she will represent, just the power and prestige of holding office.

Instead, my vote is for the man who took a bullet for this country then raised his fist encouraging us to fight, the same man who has put his name on the line and risked his personal fortune by entering the arena.

That would be Donald Trump, the man who had everything to lose eight years ago and still does today. Trump cares about Americans so much that he’s willing to risk everything.

Unlike Harris, Trump wants to lift up all Americans—not the ladder behind him.
