> The funny thing about this thread is that I have no idea where the Trump starts and the Harris ends. I have learned nothing about anyone's political stances from this back and forth.

Me neither.

I think it's a very sophisticated two-way dog whistle.

The ideologists on both sides can spot each other a mile away; the rest of us look from pig to man, and man to pig, and can not tell the difference.

for me the most salient difference, harris is gung ho on the environment. expect limited oil and high energy prices trump is the opposite - if nothing else he understands "cheap oil good"... doesn't really care either way about the environment, seeing as last EPA chief he appointed had a history of battling the EPA.

I was finding it difficult to determine the difference between the their supporters, not their policy differences.
