Kamala Harris' Shift in Strategy
Kamala Harris has recently taken a more aggressive stance in her campaign against Donald Trump, openly labeling him as a fascist. This marks a significant departure from earlier tactics that focused on ridiculing Trump rather than addressing the seriousness of his potential presidency. The shift in tone raises questions about her campaign strategy just weeks before the election, as past approaches appear to be faltering in effectiveness. This reflects a broader narrative struggle within the Democratic Party concerning how to confront Trump, who remains a formidable opponent.
