Kamala Harris just revealed her formula for taking down Trump

Kamala Harris’s Democratic convention speech served two purposes: She introduced herself to the American people, and she revealed the case she intends to prosecute against Donald Trump.

Harris picked familiar targets: Trump’s attack on democracy, his approach to taxes, and his anti-abortion rights record. But on each, she took a slightly new tack.

Democrats (and pundits) have warned for years about the threat Trump poses to democracy, but Harris connected it to a critique of his character — that he is fundamentally out for “himself,” not for typical Americans.

Wonks have been raising the alarm about a Trump policy to impose 10 percent tariffs on all imports — but Harris rebranded this plan as the “Trump tax.”
