Kamala Harris’s recent ad on social media tries — and fails — to explain how she would stop inflation. Harris would somehow fight big corporations that “rip us off.” We are to believe that these unexplained rip-offs somehow cause inflation instead of the federal government printing trillions of dollars. Democrat Senator Bob Casey of Pennsylvania uses the same phrase in his ads, thus indicating that the references to rip-offs have been conceived, vetted, approved, and coordinated at the highest Democrat levels. “Rip-off” threatens to overtake “joy” as the leading coordinated Democrat buzzword. “Rip-off” has apparently overtaken COVID, Putin, the “supply chain,” “greed,” and cereal box tampering as the leading cause of inflation.
Calling something a “rip-off” amounts to an accusation of actual criminal conduct. Yet the Justice Department of the Biden/Harris administration has failed to prosecute any such crimes.
