On top of stealing his no-taxes-on-tips proposal, it looks like Democrat presidential candidate Kamala Harris is lifting another page from the Donald Trump campaign playbook - and, interestingly, it’s one she once slammed as a barbaric waste of money.
Facing criticism for her total inability to address her current administration’s border crisis that’s allowed millions of “newcomers” into the United States and turned cities into shantytowns overrun with homeless migrants and criminal aliens, Harris, once appointed "border czar" under President Joe Biden, appears to have done an about-face on the idea of a border wall, now pledging to spend millions constructing a barrier on the Southwest U.S. line with Mexico.
A barrier she once called “un-American,” I might add.
In her speech at the DNC just last week, Harris vowed that if elected, she would sign the recent bipartisan border security bill that, in part, would allocate millions in taxpayer dollars to the continued construction of the border wall that was a major part of Trump’s first presidential term, and one he's pledged to continue if elected to another term this November.
Which is funny, given that in 2019, Harris called Trump’s wall a "medieval vanity project,” and just a year later dubbed “a complete waste of taxpayer money" that "won't make us any safer."
Kamala Harris on the border wall over the years:

2018: "Funding Trump’s unrealistic border wall would be a gross misuse of taxpayer money."
2019: "Trump's border wall is stupid."
2020: "As I said, Trump's… pic.twitter.com/RxWrRZ1MRh
Now, however, her campaign has even taken to using imagery of the “waste of money” wall in Harris' ads, which tout the former prosecutor's supposed record holding criminal aliens accountable while flashing multiple pictures of border walls in the background.
Like this.
And this.
Little funny for a woman who once called a border wall a "stupid use of money."
Of course, that was before she spent three-and-a-half years as runner-up in an administration that allowed millions of illegals to swarm into our country, overwhelm city resources, spur a violent migrant crime wave, and piss off everyone from red-state conservatives to urban Americans fed up with watching their tax dollars go to supporting illegal aliens while taxpayers can barely afford groceries.

In 1995 Bill Clinton's SOTU address called for an increase in border security as he warned of the rising number of illegals entering the Country.
