Politico: Harris’s Gun Ownership ‘Projects Strength,’ Appeals to Small-Town America

The ad blitz, which is the latest component of [Giffords’] more than $15 million campaign to support the vice president and House candidates in battleground districts who favor tougher gun laws, echoes Harris’ strategy in talking about guns on the trail. The vice president has mentioned owning a gun several times, while also pushing for gun restrictions, including an assault weapons ban, universal background checks and red-flag laws. Highlighting her gun ownership serves as another way for Harris to project strength and expand her support in rural and small-town America, as well as among the independent and Republican-leaning voters her campaign is targeting.

  1. The election comes down to what people hate worse. Open borders and inflation or Trump.

    The Democrat strategy for winning in the final days seems to be a rerun of their 2016 basket of deplorables playbook. “Trump is a fascist, and he hates Latinos and military vets (unless they worked for Hitler).” The difference now is that people have have had over eight years to fact check that against reality. People can look back at the Trump and Puppet-Harris Admins and see which one looks the best in hindsight. There’s a clear winner.

      The BEAUTIFUL part this time is, Trump has INCREASED Black and Latino support in EVERY election since 2016.

      Perhaps they are tired of being lied to that Trump is racist??? 😉

  2. Its not really working in ‘small town’ America. It might work some in those areas dominated by blue, most of them are idiots anyway like that supposed ‘veteran’ saying these ‘loop holes’ existed and slammed Trump for not ‘closing’ when no such ‘loop hole’ existed. You can tell when they use the term ‘loop hole’ in relation to firearms, its a Democrat created term to impose gun control vague principals they can later manipulate to apply any way they want like that ‘in the business’ thing.
