a CNN's reporting criticized Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris has criticized parts of the border wall built by former President Donald Trump.
Harris has sought to improve her image on the border crisis by claiming she has been tough on immigration enforcement, but CNN's report exposed her blatant hypocrisy.
“This president came into office riding a wave of denigrating an entire nation.”
The vice president slammed Trump's “build the wall” campaign promise, calling the idea of building a border wall foolish and pointless.
In her 2019 book, Harris called the wall “useless,” saying it was “merely a symbol, a monument to everything I hold dear.”
CNN found more than 50 instances in which Harris slammed Trump's border wall, calling it “stupid,” “useless” and a “medieval vanity project.”
Even more damning, the report revealed that Harris had used an image of part of Trump's border wall in her own political ads.
“This president came to office riding a wave of denigrating an entire nation,” Harris said at one point in 2019. “His billion-dollar vanity project, the wall, is just a distraction from the fact that he's not actually focused on the American worker. So instead of focusing on the needs of American working families, he's created a scapegoat, a boogeyman.”
These contradictory policies are just the latest in a series of attempts by Ms Harris to shift course ahead of the general election, a contradiction she has tried to gloss over by claiming her “values” have not changed at all.
The report also found that Harris supported current U.S. policy of granting asylum to migrants, but did not oppose the Biden administration's efforts to restrict asylum amid a historic crisis at the border.
