Vice President Kamala Harris is under criticism on Tuesday after multiple reports revealed that her new policy page included code copied from President Joe Biden’s website.
The Trump campaign released a statement concerning the matter, calling Harris “inseparable” from Biden.
“Kamala Harris owns Joe Biden’s failed record on the economy and the border,” the statement read.
“The Harris campaign can try to deny this, but it’s hard to separate yourself from someone when you are copying all of their policies,” it added.
The statement cited a Monday report from The New Republic that revealed significant duplication from Biden’s campaign website.
“Shortly after Kamala Harris released her policy agenda on Sunday evening, users on X spotted something in the metadata: Much of the language appears to have been lifted from Joe Biden’s campaign website,” the report stated.
“On Sunday night, X user Corinne Green pointed out that the issues section of Harris’s website contained metadata with language urging voters to reelect Joe Biden. This language was when links to the campaign site were shared, and in the website’s description on Google searches,” it continued.
The data was later updated, according to another post by Green.
“We did it reddit. harris removed the exhortation to re-elect joe biden from her policy platform,” she wrote.
The Harris-Walz policy page, called “A New Way Forward,” doesn’t appear to include much new material.
The concerns add to the observation that Harris has yet to hold a solo interview or press conference in the 50 days since she was appointed the Democratic nominee. The Trump campaign noted that Harris has set herself up for a difficult debate.
“The Obama advisors calling the shots at her campaign who advised her to hide for seven weeks have only raised the bar for Kamala tomorrow. By shielding her from the press and insulating her from genuine interactions with the voters, they have set a high bar for Kamala to clear,” Trump spokespersons Chris LaCivita and Susie Wiles wrote.
“Now that her honeymoon is over, the debate will be the first time Kamala will answer tough questions. In doing so, Kamala Harris will be revealed to America as a Radical Left lunatic,” they added.
