Calmes: The Top 10 reasons to vote for Kamala Harris for president
LA TimesLast week, I listed the top 10 reasons to vote against Donald Trump. Harris is “a strong, committed public servant … running to put people together,” Republican former Rep. Fred Upton of Michigan said last week, in joining more than 30 former party colleagues in condemning Trump. Harris wouldn’t treat the Justice Department as her personal law firm, as Trump did and would do again, to fulfill his threats of “retribution.” Assisted by flunkies, he’d dump the criminal cases against himself and initiate new ones against his enemies. He told right-wing radio host Hugh Hewitt on Tuesday that he’d fire special counsel Jack Smith “within two seconds.” More than 40 former Justice Department officials of both parties have endorsed Harris, saying she’d respect the department’s prosecutorial independence, like every president but Trump since Watergate. But Harris’ agenda of tax and spending policies would cost about half as much as Trump’s, according to nonpartisan analyses, and provide a better return on public investment.
