Harris Visits MAGA Areas of Pennsylvania, to Cut Into Trump’s Edge

The vice president, who appeared in #Johnstown and #Wilkes-#Barre, said she would
❇️ #remove#unnecessary degree #requirements” for some federal jobs,

a pitch to Mr. Trump’s base of voters without a college education in a part of the state where he expects to perform well.

Ms. Harris also emphasized her work in California
❇️ #prosecuting Mexican #drug #cartels,
and said as president she would continue to go after them “for pushing poisons like fentanyl on our children.”

The vice president’s Trump-country pitch amounted to a continuation of her appeal to moderate and right-leaning voters that began at the Democratic National Convention last month
and continued during Tuesday’s debate with the former president.

#Prosecuting #Trump is perilous. Ignoring his #conduct would be worse.

…Most federal prosecutions have the government defending the interests of society writ large — against drug trafficking, or corporate fraud, or gun crimes. This prosecution is different. The #UnitedStates is defending itself, recoiling against an effort to undo the #democracy that Trump swore an oath to protect.
