Not only did Vice President Harris steal her first public policy decision from former President Donald Trump, she also failed to mention that the Biden-Harris Administration's current track record proves that she's already doing the exact opposite.
At a rally in Las Vegas on Saturday, Harris supported eliminating tip taxes on hospitality and service workers, a policy that, interestingly, Trump first supported at a Las Vegas rally in June.
“I promise all of you here that if I'm president, I'll continue to fight for working American families, including raising the minimum wage and eliminating the tip tax for service and hospitality workers,” Harris told the crowd.

But like everything else she says, it's a purely political calculation that she would never actually make, and President Trump would. pic.twitter.com/8MiJ8eFreu

Unfortunately for Harris, you can't just steal someone else's ideas, especially when your own record could quickly betray them.
The Biden-Harris Administration’s Treasury Department and Internal Revenue Service (IRS) Announced In February 2023, the federal government announced it would implement a new Service Industry Tip Reporting Program that would force service and hospitality workers to report tips as income. The Service Industry Tip Compliance Agreement (SITCA) program works by allowing the federal government to monitor employers' point of sale systems and “improve tip reporting compliance.” Luke: Vance proves why he's Trump's best buddy
Kamala Harris' first big policy idea is to steal Trump's “no tax on tips” policy as she supports the Democrats' proposed $80 billion budget to ramp up IRS audits, including on tip income.

“The proposed SITCA program is designed to leverage advances in point-of-sale, time and attendance systems and electronic payment methods to improve tip reporting compliance. The proposed program would reduce administrative burdens for taxpayers and the IRS and provide greater transparency and certainty to taxpayers,” the IRS said in a press release.
“We will monitor employers' compliance and consider adjustments to their tip practices annually based on actual annual tip revenue and tip rate data obtained from employers' point-of-sale systems,” the agency added.
Such honest media.

Under a Harris administration, Big Brother can directly investigate your employer's financial system and impose maximum taxes – of course, this is for your own benefit and for “certainty”. [for] “Taxpayers”
Harris wants us to ignore what she already stands for and believe that things will change. Karine Jean-Pierre said She told reporters today that there is no difference between her presidential policies and those currently in place under President Joe Biden. Luke: Even after Democrats changed course on crime, Kamala is still cutting checks to defund the police.
“They've been in lockstep for the last three and a half years. Nothing's been progressing,” Jean-Pierre said of Harris and Biden. “She's going to build on the success that they've had.”

Americans can't stand Harris-style “success” any longer. Inflation still puts Americans deep in debt and home buying is out of reach for millions of adults. If the Biden-Harris administration's monetary policies continue when she becomes president, these problems will only get worse. Voters understand this, which is why she has resorted to stealing Trump's ideas that have made American families rich.
