Vice President Kamala Harris is set to focus on joy, optimism, and patriotism in her acceptance speech at the Democratic National Convention on Thursday, according to a Harris-Walz campaign official cited in an Axios report. This approach marks a significant shift from former President Donald Trump‘s abrasive style, with Harris aiming to offer a more positive and hopeful vision for the future.
The official reportedly revealed that Harris’ speech will center on three key points:
Her Personal Story
Harris plans to share her experiences growing up in a middle-class neighborhood with a working mother. She will emphasize how this background gives her a deep understanding of the daily joys and challenges faced by middle-class families, reflecting shared values.
Project 2025
Harris will draw a clear contrast between her optimistic vision for the future and that of Trump’s Project 2025. She will outline her “New Way Forward,” an agenda focused on economic opportunity and protecting fundamental freedoms.
Patriotism
Harris will highlight her belief in the promise of America, expressing a strong sense of patriotism. She will communicate her desire to be a president who represents and serves all Americans.
Harris’ speech aims to present a hopeful and inclusive vision, positioning herself as a candidate who offers relief from the alleged divisive rhetoric of her opponent. It isn’t clear however if her speech will land will people who are not in Chicago for the DNC. There have been multiple reports suggesting Harris will propose higher taxes, which’ll make a lot of people skeptical of her policies.
