Jennings Say Harris Is A Republican
CNN Republican commentator Scott Jennings labeled Vice President Kamala Harris, the Democratic Party’s presidential nominee, as an “honorary Republican” due to her shifting policy positions.
Jennings noted that in recent weeks, Harris has distanced herself from the more liberal stances she championed during her 2019 presidential campaign. Her campaign has reportedly had low-level aides leak these shifts to friendly media outlets, while surrogates have worked to separate her from President Joe Biden.
Additionally, Harris has adopted several policies promoted by her Republican opponent, former President Donald Trump.
Just before the debate, Vice President Kamala Harris made a notable move by adding a policy tab to her campaign website.
Despite her attempts to present herself as a change agent distinct from the Biden administration, critics observed that much of the content on her site was copied directly from President Biden’s campaign materials.
THE LIE: Kamala does not want to take away gun rights in America.
THE TRUTH: Kamala Harris has blatantly said multiple times she wants to take away guns.
Kamala appears to flip flop on this policy, but her past is coming back to bite.

During a panel discussion hosted by anchor Abby Phillip, CNN Republican commentator Scott Jennings addressed Harris’ actions.
He pointed out the apparent shift to the right in her policy stances, emphasizing that Harris was, at least publicly, trying to align herself with more conservative positions, possibly in an effort to appeal to a broader audience.

“Here’s my nightcap,” he began. “I was scrolling through the debate news today and I read headlines that say thing like, ‘Why Kamala Harris has embraced America’s oil boom,’ ‘Harris embraces U.S. fossil fuels,’ ‘Harris: frack on, my dudes,’ ‘Harris embraces oil and gas on debate stage,’ and then I heard her say she’s a gun owner. And so, I know this is gonna, like, break your heart, I just want to once again welcome Kama — we’ve got a Democrat who’s out here trying to pump oil and buy guns. And I don’t know if she means it or not, but it is a step in the right direction when a national Democrat can embrace fossil fuels and gun ownership at the same time. Welcome Kamala Harris, honorary Republican of the night.”
