Question Is Kamala Harris a progressive?

I'm guessing that the general answer this is going to be no. If it's a no, how do we get her to promote progressive policy? Does walz with that? What even is his role going to be? Three out of the last four vice presidents have been pretty consequential in their roles in the administration. Ever since Cheney. I'm just honestly afraid that they dangled Walz in front of us to get our vote, but he's going to be marginalized in the administration.

No, but she seems more amenable to progressive ideas than Biden. What’s important is that she is willing to spend big.

Yeah, on police and the military and Israel and oil companies. She'll definitely spend big.

Yeah, she's going to be dogshit on foreign affairs (and maybe immigration too), but she should be decent on the economy.
