One of the things we noted about the debate was how many lies Kamala Harris told. Of course, she wasn’t fact-checked as former President Donald Trump was in a blatant example of the ABC moderators’ bias. 

She told a boatload of falsehoods. She seemed to rip off all of the common hoaxes that Joe Biden is always flinging at Trump, even including the ridiculous “fine people” lie, which is all the more offensive, given that she was actually promoting a bail fund for people arrested during the rioting in Minnesota in 2020. 

One of her most galling claims is that she has “plans” to make the economy better. If that were true, why hasn’t she done any of it already, as Trump said? Why did she vote for spending that made inflation worse, a very basic principle she doesn’t seem to understand? 

Kamala Shamelessly Lied Her Head Off Throughout the Debate

But one of the things she’s been saying was that Goldman Sachs had endorsed her “plan.”

During the debate, she said:

“I am offering what I describe as an opportunity economy, and the best economists in our country, if not the world, have reviewed our relative plans for the future of America,” Harris said during the debate. “What Goldman Sachs has said is that Donald Trump’s plan would make the economy worse, mine would strengthen the economy.”

Then she repeated it in a rally on Thursday. 

“Goldman Sachs, for example, has said my plan would grow the economy and his plan would shrink the economy. That his plan would reignite inflation and send us into a recession by the end of next year.”

Imagine the gall. Trump was in office. Prior to the pandemic, he had a banging economy, lowered taxes, and had inflation at 1.4 percent. Biden and Harris drove that number up. She has no credibility at all on such a subject. 

But now, Goldman Sachs CEO David Solomon has torn apart her claim. 

First, he distanced the company, saying the report came from an independent analyst. In other words, she can’t say we are saying that. Then he said, “I think a lot more has been made of this than should be.”

He explained the report only looked at a handful of policy issues. I don’t know how it could have looked at much, since she had no policies out.  

“The reason I say a bigger deal has been made of it is what it showed is the difference between the sets of policies that they’ve put forward is about two-tenths of 1 percent,” he said. 

“I think our clients are trying to look at what’s going on from a policy perspective and make judgments. I think this blew up into something that’s bigger than what it was intended to be,” he concluded. 

Translation? She’s full of it. Or, as Fox Business put it, “Don’t bank on it.” 

Many of the voters have already indicated they don’t buy it. If she had a plan, why hasn’t she done it? We saw that with the CBS voter group and in the CNN poll, where Trump actually moved more points ahead of her on the economy.

It’s like Biden pulling out the letter from the 51 former intel officials during the debate with Trump in 2020. The letter claimed Hunter Biden’s laptop had all the signs of a Russian op. That was nonsense to help sway the election. We can see with our own eyes what her actions have already done to hurt us and our wallets.
