The Spin
Democratic narrative
Harris has a complicated record related to her time as a prosecutor and her stance on various issues related to criminal justice. She must clarify her position and commit to addressing the criminal justice system. Harris has said some positive things that reflect a more progressive outlook, however, she's hardly a stalwart on the issue. Hopefully, amid her current momentum, she will moderate her "tough on crime" main message to appeal to a wider swath of her party and the country.
Republican narrative
Harris is a walking contradiction trying to appease the far-left while portraying herself as a "tough on crime" leader. But her track record shows that she aligns with failed liberal policies that open the prisons and create havoc in cities. She raised bail for rioters and has supported far-left initiatives that set dangerous felons free. America needs a president who's actually tough on crime.
