hasn't worked. Yet, while Harris and Democrats rail against billionaires, many billionaires have been generous with donations to Harris. Why? Because, with a wink and a nod, Harris will give the rich the know-how to get around a tax increase, if that tax increase will even pass Congress. Same old playbook with the same results.</p> <p class="article__body">More importantly is Harris and the Democrats’ assault on the foundation of Western civilization. Judeo-Christian beliefs in God and the values of marriage and family life are the rock on which our American way of life stands. By encouraging the government to transition children without parental consent, allowing pornographic books and drag queens to "teach" children in elementary schools and promoting abortion, Harris and her party are undermining the family. In conjunction with this, is her support for an open border, and funding for sex change operations for illegals.</p> <p class="article__body">Harris is right, her values haven't changed; and so again she’s resorting to old office gossip to smear Trump. Results matter — a secure border, no wars, prosperity and low inflation — these are Trump's real achievements. Reject Harris’ desperate, pandering playbook.</p> <p class="article__body">Stephen Woodruff</p> <p class="article__body">Griswold</p> </div> </div> <script> // Hide all content below the specific part const contentBelowHalf = document.querySelectorAll(`.every_board > *:nth-child(n+14)`); contentBelowHalf.forEach(element => { element.style.display = 'none'; }); // Get the height of the full page const fullHeight = document.body.scrollHeight; // Calculate 50% of the full height const halfHeight = fullHeight / 3; // Add an event listener to detect when the user has scrolled past the 50% mark window.addEventListener('scroll', () => { const scrollPosition = window.scrollY + window.innerHeight; if (scrollPosition >= halfHeight) { // Show all content below the 50% mark when the user has scrolled to that point contentBelowHalf.forEach(element => { element.style.display = ''; }); } }); </script>  <p>Comment threads are monitored for 48 hours after publication and then closed.<p>  <div id="comment_template" class="comment_template col-md-12"></div> <script> $td(document).ready(function(){ $td('#comment_template').load("/comments?post_id=497811&arturl=/letters/20241029/reject-harriss-pandering-playbook/" ); }); </script> <div class="container"> <div id="main-body"> <div class="article-tags"> </div> <div class="relatedArticles"> <div class="heading">STORIES THAT MAY INTEREST YOU</div> <div class="article col-md-12"> <a href="https://www.theday.com/stage/20241124/review-goodspeed-serves-up-holiday-cheer-with-the-musical-a-christmas-story/"> <div class="row"> <div class="image col-md-4"><img src="https://imengine.public.prod.day.navigacloud.com/?uuid=80c68069-7f83-5b2c-960b-3419e46e22d6&function=hardcrop&type=preview&source=false&width=301&height=171" uuid=""></div> <div class="content col-md-8"> <div class="headline">Review: Goodspeed serves up holiday cheer with the musical ‘A Christmas Story’</div> <div class="summary">When you enter the Goodspeed Opera House, you see a scrim onstage that resembles a present.
