Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, didn’t hold back when he took a swing at Vice President Kamala Harris on Tuesday. He zeroed in on her less-than-stellar performance on hot-button issues like the border crisis, the economy, and crime. Harris, now donning the hat of the Democratic Party’s presidential nominee, is making grand promises to fix these problems if she gets the keys to the Oval Office. But Jordan isn’t buying it, pointing out that she’s had plenty of time to tackle these issues as VP and has come up empty-handed.
Harris is now promising to beef up border security, champion the middle class, and push for sweeping gun reform. Her wish list includes universal background checks, red flag laws, and an assault weapons ban. It’s almost as if she’s discovered these issues for the first time, despite being in office for years.
HERITAGE FOUNDATION SUES DHS FOR DOCUMENTS THAT SAY ‘HARRIS’ AND ‘BORDER CZAR’
Republicans Hold Harris Accountable
The GOP isn’t letting Harris off the hook for the Biden-Harris administration’s less-than-stellar track record. Jordan took to X (formerly Twitter) to vent his frustration, saying, “Kamala Harris could fix the border now. She hasn’t. She could fix the economy now. She’s made it worse. She could clean up Democrat-run cities now. But raises money to bail out rioters.” Ouch! That’s gotta sting!
| Issue | Harris’s Promise | Reality Check |
|---|---|---|
| Border Security | Strengthen border | Record-high illegal crossings |
| Economy | Fight for middle class | Inflation at 40-year high |
| Crime | Clean up cities | Crime rates soaring in major cities |
Border Czar or Border Farce?
Back in 2021, Biden handed Harris the task of getting to the bottom of mass migration from Central and South America. Some Democrats and media outlets tried to claim Harris was never the “border czar,” but let’s not kid ourselves – that’s exactly how she was labeled when this circus act began. Biden said Harris would be the ringmaster, coordinating with Mexico and the Northern Triangle nations to address the migrant surge. But instead of a well-orchestrated performance, we got a three-ring disaster.
Remember when Harris finally decided to grace the border with her presence? It took her 93 days after being appointed “border czar” to make the trip. And where did she go? El Paso, Texas – hundreds of miles from the epicenter of the crisis. It’s like showing up to a house fire with a water gun and claiming you’ve saved the day!
Harris Flip-Flops on Medicare-for-All
HARRIS SAYS SHE WILL NOT PUSH ‘MEDICARE-FOR ALL’ PLAN DESPITE PREVIOUS SUPPORT
In a stunning display of political gymnastics, Harris has now backflipped on her previous support for Medicare-for-All. It seems she’s discovered that promising free healthcare for everyone might not be the golden ticket to the White House after all. Who would’ve thought?
House Condemns Harris’ Border Handling
Last month, the House passed a resolution condemning Harris’s handling of the border crisis with a 220-196 vote. It’s almost as if they noticed that under her watchful eye, the border has become about as secure as a screen door on a submarine.
From Vice President to Bail Bondsman?
Jordan didn’t stop at criticizing Harris’s border blunders. He also took her to task for raising money to bail out rioters. In June 2020, Harris was encouraging donations to the Minnesota Freedom Fund, ostensibly to help protesters after George Floyd’s death. Because nothing says “law and order” like helping people who’ve been arrested for breaking the law, right?
Trump vs. Harris: A Tale of Two Administrations
While Harris fumbles through her vice presidency, it’s worth remembering the accomplishments of the previous administration under President Donald Trump. Let’s compare, shall we?
- Border Security: Trump built over 450 miles of new border wall. Harris? She’s still trying to find the border on a map.
- Economy: Trump achieved record-low unemployment rates. Under Biden-Harris? Inflation is eating away at Americans’ savings faster than a kid in a candy store.
- Foreign Policy: Trump brokered historic peace deals in the Middle East. Harris? She’s still working on her awkward laugh for international meetings.
Harris’ Word Salad Bar
No discussion of Kamala Harris would be complete without mentioning her infamous “word salads.” Her ability to string together meaningless phrases has become legendary. Remember gems like “We must together, work together, to see where we are, where we are headed, where we are going and our vision for where we should be, but also see it as a moment to, yes, together, address the challenges and to work on the opportunities that are presented by this moment.” It’s like she’s playing a game of Mad Libs with policy speeches!
Conclusion
As Harris sets her sights on the presidency, one can’t help but wonder: If she couldn’t handle being VP, what makes her think she can handle being President? It seems the only thing rising faster than illegal border crossings is Harris’s political ambition. But hey, at least she’s consistent in one thing – consistently underperforming.
