Typically, this would be a positive statement\u2014except that her father, Donald Harris, was a Marxist professor. This comment arose during a discussion about tariff and technology export policies, particularly concerning China. Trump pointed out that America &#8220;hardly makes chips anymore due to philosophies like those pursued by&#8221; the Biden administration. He added, &#8220;I don\u2019t say her because she has no policy,&#8221; emphasizing that Harris&#8217;s previous beliefs have changed significantly over time.<\/p>\n<p>He humorously suggested he might send her a MAGA hat but insisted that despite her recent shift toward more centrist views as she became the de facto Democratic nominee\u2014especially after adopting one of Trump&#8217;s proposals regarding tax exemptions for waitstaff tips\u2014her governance would not reflect this change. &#8220;She\u2019s a Marxist,&#8221; Trump declared. &#8220;Everyone knows she\u2019s a Marxist. Her father is a Marxist professor in economics who taught her well.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>While Harris tried to laugh off his comments, they highlighted the contrast between her current lack of substantial beliefs and those she held four years ago, which could be seen as quite left-leaning or even Marxist. Indeed, her father was an economics professor at Stanford University known for his combative Marxist views on economic growth.<\/p>\n<p>The Economist described him as focusing on capitalism&#8217;s inherent insecurities and its failure to improve living standards without intervention\u2014a theme echoed in both major parties&#8217; platforms today regarding public investment and industrial policy aimed at benefiting the middle class.<\/p>\n<p>However, Americans remain divided on more specific left-wing ideas championed by Harris such as Medicare-for-All and open borders. Notably, before becoming vice president, she was recognized as one of the most liberal senators based on voting records\u2014even compared to self-identified socialists like Bernie Sanders\u2014which underscores why Trump&#8217;s comments struck such a chord<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2339481,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Trump-v-Harris-1.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[3896,32438,5894,3634],"class_list":["post-2339480","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","tag-debate","tag-kamala-harris","tag-politics","tag-trump"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Trump-v-Harris-1.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2339480","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2339480"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2339480\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2339481"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2339480"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2339480"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2339480"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
