Vice President Kamala Harris has faced criticism for her recent economic proposals, which some view as mere extensions of Biden's policies despite increasing living costs. During a speech at the Democratic National Convention, she received applause for her unexpected appearance, rallying support for her party as they prepare for the upcoming elections. Critics have also targeted her speaking style, labeling her remarks on democracy as 'word salad' and questioning her ability to communicate effectively without a script. Furthermore, Harris and her running mate, Tim Walz, aim to reclaim the concepts of 'freedom' and 'liberty' from Republicans, resonating with some disillusioned GOP voters. As the election approaches, Harris continues to emphasize a message of unity and optimism, despite internal party tensions and external scrutiny.
