Trump Blasts Kamala For ‘Conning’ Americans: She’s ‘Flip-Flopped On Virtually Every Policy’

Former President Donald Trump said on Monday that Vice President Kamala Harris was attempting to con the American public by shifting her positions on border security and copying his proposal to remove taxes on tips.

Harris made headlines over the weekend after she said she would eliminate taxes on tips if elected president at a rally in Las Vegas, a policy first proposed by Trump two months ago. 

“Kamala Harris has flip-flopped on virtually every policy she has supported and lived by for her entire career, from the Border to Tips, and the Fake News Media isn’t reporting it,” Trump posted on Truth Social on Monday. “She sounds more like Trump than Trump, copying almost everything. She is conning the American public, and will flip right back. I will MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN! There will be no flipping!!!”

Trump first proposed stopping taxing tips in June, also at a rally in Las Vegas.

“So this is the first time I’ve said this, and for those hotel workers and people that get tips, you’re going to be very happy because when I get to office, we are going to not charge taxes on tips, on people making tips,” Trump said at the rally. “And I think it’s going to be something that is deserved — more importantly — popular or unpopular, I do some unpopular things too, if it’s right for the country, I do what’s right.”

Trump also ripped into Harris’s recent narrative that she is tough on border security. One of her new ads claims that she supported “the toughest border control bill in decades” and refers to her as a “border state prosecutor.”

“Kamala Harris was put in sole charge of the Border,” Trump said on Monday. “It quickly became the WORST AND MOST DANGEROUS BORDER IN HISTORY. As President, Harris will completely DESTROY OUR COUNTRY!”

Republicans have pushed back, pointing to the record number of illegal immigrants who have entered the country during the Biden-Harris administration and her reported role as Biden’s “border czar.”

Trump currently maintains a narrow lead in five of the seven key battleground polls, according to the most recent average of polling. Harris has narrow leads in both Wisconsin and Michigan.

Walz Issued Congressional Challenge Coin That Misstated His Rank

Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, now Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris’s running mate, issued his Congressional Challenge Coin falsely claiming he had the status of a command sergeant major when, in fact, he retired as a master sergeant.

Some members of Congress have embraced a military tradition of minting custom coins. The Congressional Challenge Coins purport to include details about their lives and the districts they represent.

Evidence of the coin was first reported by the podcast Angry Cops; it was corroborated by Daily Wire reporter Bree A Dail On X.

Hi, @Tim_Walz and @KamalaHarris
Just wondering, did you also “misprint” your rank as Command Sergeant Major on your Congressional Challenge Coin?

Retired Sergeant Major Jason Jaskula — who has run the KIA Memorial Roadmarch to honor the memory of his fallen buddy, Staff Sergeant Christopher Dill, killed in during Operation Iraqi Freedom on April 4, 2005, in Diyala, Iraq — was asked by Angry Cops what he thought of  Walz’s Congressional Challenge Coin. He responded:

I think it is unethical. He was a conditionally appointed sergeant major but never earned the rank and literally no one would understand that except for a few military members and/or sergeant majors. … It’s like a private and basic training that becomes the platoon leader, and he gets to wear sergeant’s stripes on his shoulders, but then he goes home and shows pictures of it and then people think that he’s a sergeant. … As an actual retired sergeant major it pisses me off and minimalizes what I actually did. Feel free to use the quote as well that I spoke to sergeant majors and they all call him — never mind.

“Challenge coins serve as a symbol of membership, belonging, and camaraderie, forging a strong bond among those who possess them. Additionally, they are used to acknowledge an individual’s achievements, dedication, or exemplary service, and serve as a tangible reminder of the appreciation and respect of their peers and superiors,” Fork Union Military Academy explains.

Doug Julin — who oversaw Walz in the Minnesota National Guard as a more senior command sergeant in the 1st Battalion, 125th Field Artillery — told CNN on Thursday that Walz went behind his back to retire after he learned that their unit would be deploying to Iraq.

“Receiving a challenge coin is a great honor, as it signifies that the recipient has played a special role, making a significant impact on their peers and the organization as a whole,” Fork Union Military Academy continues. “Today, challenge coins are used across all branches of the US military, including the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard. They have become an integral part of military culture and tradition, with each unit creating their unique coins featuring their insignia, motto, or other elements that represent their identity and values. … Possessing a unit’s challenge coin indicated that an individual was a trusted member of the team and shared the same values, experiences, and goals as their comrades.”
