Dem Senator Says Harris’ Policy Reversals Show She’s ‘Human,’ Claims ‘No Concerns’ Of Flip-Flopping

Democratic California Sen. Laphonza Butler said Sunday on CNN that Vice President Kamala Harris’ multiple policy reversals show she’s “human,” claiming there are “no concerns” of her continuing to flip-flop.

During the “State of the Union” show, CNN host Dana Bash brought up Harris‘ policy reversals on issues such as defunding the police, illegal immigration and medicare. Bash asked Butler what voters should “think” about Harris’ policy changes, to which the Democratic senator responded the Vice President is a “human” who “learns new things” every day before.

“I think that voters should think that she’s a human being who learns new things every single day and has the ability to take the time and effort to hear the concerns of all people. I think that they should be certain that she is a fighter and a leader who’s going to do the work on their behalf to ensure that there is an economy that ensures that no one is left behind,” Butler said.

“That there is a climate that we’re going to continue to address the climate crisis in a way that ensures that there is an earth here for young people and for next generations of leaders,” Butler continued. “I think that they should absolutely believe that she is a leader who cares about people and who’s going to put them first as she has done her entire career.”

Bash continued to question Butler, asking if she had concerns over Harris “flip-flopping,” before the Democratic senator pushed back to state Harris has “been consistent in her values.”
