"I think there is a deeper and more important issue in this debate, which is that you had Kamala Harris effectively echoing platitude after platitude after platitude. The American people can't pay their grocery bills on platitudes. They can't put their kids in a house on platitudes. Kamala Harris had a lot to say but very little actual substance behind it for how she's going to lower grocery prices, secure the border, and make housing more affordable in this country. She has been the vice president for three and a half years appear she can't run on her record and apparently can't run on much of her plans either because it's just a lot of slogans and not a lot of substance."
