America's ready 'to turn the page' on Trump's 'same old show'
Raw StoryI usually write what I hope are thoughtful pieces about American politics that feature something like a beginning, middle and end. "Despite 45 million people depending on it, he’s going to get rid of Obamacare," she said, and “take us back when folks were suffering.” “We’re not going back.” The point here is that Harris is doing two things at the same time to push back against Trump’s authoritarian tendencies. At the debate, Harris said that we saw her talk about issues that matter, “like bringing down the cost of living, investing in America’s small businesses, protecting reproductive freedoms, and keeping our nation safe and secure.” But, she said, that’s not what we heard from Trump. She said, “I called it at the beginning of the debate.” She added that Trump had “no plan for how he would address the needs of the American people.” She said it was the “same old, tired playbook we’ve heard for years.” It was, Harris said, “the same old show.” And because of that, it was “time to turn the page." Every time he gets a question about it, Buttigieg said, we get “a strange ramble that raises the question of whether he’s ever actually considered childcare policy seriously.” He says Kamala Harris, however, is “very serious.” She wants to expand the child tax credit and “make sure we have paid parental leave.” Collins then clarifies that Buttigieg is referring to a moment last week when Trump was speaking at the Economic Club of New York.
