Kamala Harris has officially entered the world of political transparency—sort of—by creating a policy page that, interestingly enough, originated from the genius minds behind Donald Trump’s campaign. This new site feels like a comedic sketch making fun of Harris’s lack of substance, as the former President’s team recently took a swing at the Vice President for her failure to provide any meaningful info on her own campaign website. One has to wonder if her campaign strategy involves shadows and smoke and mirrors instead of actual plans.
The criticism of Harris’s policies comes at a time when she’s attempting to carve out an economic position by touting seemingly attractive ideas, such as eliminating taxes on tips and fighting against alleged grocery price gouging. However, these half-baked notions come without a fleshed-out, detailed policy plan. It appears that the Vice President prefers to throw a few buzzwords around rather than rolling up her sleeves and tackling the issues head-on. Her economic outreach could be described as floating balloons without a weight attached—colorful, but ultimately destined to drift away into the sky of impracticality.
Since Kamala won't tell the American people her policies, The Trump Campaign Releases Policy Website for Harris Campaign.

In a cheeky twist, Trump’s spokesperson had some fun with this newfound policy page by openly stating that it aims to help voters understand what Harris really stands for. According to the site, her agenda reveals a penchant for opening borders like it’s a clearance sale and a desire to hike taxes with the satisfaction of a kid on Christmas morning. The tagline on this site, cheekily proclaiming that Harris’s dangerous policies are nothing to laugh about, is a clever jab at her tendency to downplay serious topics with a smile that could light up a room—even if it’s the room of a dilapidated house she wants to renovate with taxpayer dollars.
For those brave enough to dive into the depths of KamalaPolicies2024.com, they would find a manifesto depicting Harris as the poster child for radical liberalism. With comparisons to “the Squad,” this effort seeks to paint her as so far left that even some progressives would be looking for a lifeboat. The “policies” lampooned on this page range from setting criminals free to dishing out Social Security to illegal immigrants—gems that are more likely to end up in a Saturday Night Live skit than reasonable political discourse.
Republicans are more organized when it comes to laying out a policy platform. Trump’s campaign boasts something called Agenda 47, while Democrats seem to be more preoccupied with tying the former president to external frameworks like Project 2025 from the Heritage Foundation. The Harris campaign has yet to respond to the ridicule, opting instead to keep their visitors in suspense. One has to wonder if that is a strategy of intrigue or just the usual indecisiveness that has plagued her public persona. After all, if the Vice President isn’t ready to disclose her cards, one could argue that the GOP is doing her a favor by highlighting the monumental gaps in her so-called policies.
