“On the Holmes Front” with Frank Holmes
Does Kamala Harris want to Make America Great Again? As much as she’s ripping off her policy positions from Donald Trump, it seems like she may soon don a red hat and scream, “This is MAGA country!”
The latest example comes from one of the most hypocritical reversals in American political history: This week, Kamala Harris’ campaign endorsed the signature issue of President Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign, saying it would build a big, beautiful wall on the U.S. border with Mexico.
The left-wing website Axios bluntly broke the news on Tuesday with the headline, “Harris flip-flops on building the border wall”

Axios was accused of lying, basing its report on Kamala’s support for a weak “bipartisan” border bill that would have made illegal immigration even worse…but then the Harris campaign featured the wall in its own campaign ad!
“As a border state prosecutor, she took on drug cartels and jailed gang members for smuggling weapons and drugs across the border,” says the voiceover, as the camera sweeps over footage of Trump’s border wall.
“Is Kamala Harris’ new ad promoting President Trump’s border wall?” asked former Trump administration Acting DHS Secretrary Chad Wolf. “Does she now support constructing a border wall?”
Wolf, who now serves at the America First Policy Institute, pointed out that the ad shows “numerous images of steel bollard designed wall with an anti-climb plate atop,” all of which were “designed and constructed under President Trump.”

That’s a bigger waffle than the entire inventory of the International House of Pancakes.
When she was running for president herself, or getting ready to launch her failed 2020 campaign, Kamala Harris called the border wall “un-American,” “stupid,” a “waste of money,” and President Trump’s personal “medieval vanity project.”
“Let me be very clear: I’m not gonna vote for a (border) wall under any circumstances,” Kamala promised in a townhall meeting televised on CNN.

Yesterday, it was evil: Today, it’s policy.
To his credit, ABC News propagandist Jonathan Karl asked Senator Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., about the Trump-era wall footage.
This gives away an important fact in the entire debate: All the components of the Wall had already been set aside, because the Biden and Harris ordered an end to Wall construction on day one of their joint administration.
CNN described the scene as “a construction zone frozen in time.”
Not only did the White House refuse to build the wall, but they stopped anyone else who wanted to secure the border from cartels, narcoterrorists, and human traffickers.
When the state of Arizona built its own makeshift border wall, the Biden-Harris administration ordered them to tear it down.
When the sovereign state of Texas strung a series of buoys to stop illegal aliens from swimming across the Rio Grande, the Biden-Harris administration sued them in federal court in hopes of tearing it down—like they did thick bushes of razor wire on the land border between Texas and Mexico. (Harris lost that one in court; the buoys are still working.)
The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit ruled that Texas can keep the buoys Governor Greg Abbott ordered installed in the Rio Grande. The Biden-Harris administration sued the State of Texas to stop Texas from placing the barriers in the river that separates Mexico from… https://t.co/rl2DxGiuI1 pic.twitter.com/Ckk1qeQEvG

Now and again, a pathetic and desperate Biden would start up border wall construction again—usually when ordered by a court.
But for the most part, he let the wall and all its components rot and rust.
“I don’t think people have fully internalized what a dramatic about-face Kamala Harris just pulled,” said Charlie Kirk of Turning Point USA. “We were smeared for NINE YEARS that a border wall was racist, anti-American, xenophobic, and fascist. We were called Nazis, bigots, and worse.”
“Nine years!” said Kirk. “Then suddenly, 70 days out from the election, Kamala Harris decides she supports one and it’s crickets from the media.”
Kirk summed up the situation: “The gaslighting is truly remarkable.”
Senate Republicans accused Kamala of outright plagiarizing the idea from the GOP candidate.
Kamala’s policy flip-flops have people asking: What will she abandon next?
“Wait till she dyes her hair blonde,” joked Senator Ted Cruz, R-Texas.
But Republican vice presidential candidate J.D. Vance warned people not to get too worked up by the shameless turnabout on the border.
Kamala Harris is a fake.
If she wants to build the border wall, she could start right now! https://t.co/EXyBzk1DpR

Like every other campaign promise Kamala makes, she could easily put it into action, if she really wanted to.
That should tell you how sincere Kamala Harris’ campaign pledges are. That two-face is too fake to be elected president in November.
