The Vice-President has answered few direct questions since becoming the presumptive nominee. This is probably good for her campaign, but not for voters.

As wildly different as Harris and Trump are, their campaigns seem to share a degree of indifference to the specifics of what their candidates are saying, because both campaigns realize that many of their voters are unconcerned about such details—or, at the very least, are unlikely to be moved by them. What matters to many voters right now is their hatred and fear, however justified, of the opposing candidate, and the fun they have calling the other side weird, dangerous, and deranged.

    Trump has no policy at all. He didn’t before his first term, and he doesn’t now. He just says whatever dumb shit he thinks of, and his cult followers want to hear.

    A coherent policy would you need to identify a cause and effect of something to even beging planning it. He doesn’t have that kind of mental acuity.
