Democratic National Convention Begins
The Spin
Over the next week, Kamala Harris and her party will have the whole country watching, making it their easiest opportunity yet to compare their winning strategy against Trump. All she has to do is explain her plan to give thousands of dollars in child tax credits, stop corporations from inflating prices, not cower in the face of Russia's demands, and keep decency in the White House. Once Biden passes the baton to his VP, the party — and the country — will get behind her.
Democrats chose the perfect city to represent their policy record and future ambitions. Chicago is one of the murder capitals of the country thanks to defunding the police and cashless bail, two policies Harris has supported. It also has the second-highest sales and property tax despite a crumbling economy. As for its children, the schools are run by the teachers union, which has resulted in the vast majority of students failing basic math and reading tests.
