We still don’t know very much about what Kamala Harris plans to do to deal with the various crises facing the nation if she is somehow elected to be the next president. (*Shudder*) That’s because she is still yet to do a formal interview or hold a press conference and take serious questions. But she did seem to lift the curtain just a bit yesterday while addressing a small assembly of supporters in North Carolina. Harris acknowledged that « prices are still too high », leading me to wonder who tipped her off to that. She pointed to the cost of a loaf of bread and a pound of hamburger at the grocery store. Unfortunately, she still seemed to be trying to blame all of this on the pandemic and made no mention of the massive spikes in inflation observed while she and Joe Biden have been in office.

Vice President Kamala Harris admitted to a small group of supporters Friday that the cost of food has been “too high” under President Biden.
“We all know that prices went up during the pandemic when the supply chains shut down and failed, but our supply chains have now improved and prices are still too high,” the Democratic presidential nominee, 59, said during a campaign stop in Raleigh, NC, in a speech outlining her new economic plan.
“A loaf of bread costs 50% more today than it did before the pandemic,” Harris continued, validating one of former President Donald Trump’s central campaign messaging points, which is that the economy was in far better shape during his presidency.
