Vice President Kamala Harris was not present at the event as she continued to tour the battleground states with arch-conservative warmonger and former Wyoming Rep. Liz Cheney. Democrats are using the daughter of George W. Bush’s Vice President Dick Cheney, who also endorsed Harris, to appeal to influential Republicans who see former President Donald Trump as too unreliable to address growing class conflict at home and around the expanding world to deal with war in the Middle East, Eastern Europe and finally China.

At an Oct. 21 appearance with Liz Cheney and Maria Shriver in Oakland County, Michigan, Harris touted her time on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee and attacked Trump for working to end the war in Ukraine.

“He would surrender; “He would ensure that Ukraine gives up its fight against an aggressor,” Harris said. Cheney expanded on Harris’ response, saying there has been an “embrace of isolationism” within the Republican Party.

Harris added: “Trump’s approach would be surrender.” She continued: “Understand what that would mean. This is a signal to the President of Russia that he can get away with what he did. You see, look at the map, Poland would be next.”

While Harris and Cheney fought to defend U.S. imperialism, Tuesday’s event at Concord Community College in New Hampshire focused on the “progress” made by the Biden White House and the Democratic Party in lowering prescription drug prices through the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 The legislation passed along party lines, with all Democrats and those who caucused with them voting in favor.
