Democratic presidential hopeful Kamala Harris pointedly declined in an interview broadcast Sunday to put a price tag on the Green New Deal and "Medicare-for-all," which she has endorsed wholeheartedly even as Republicans cite nonpartisan cost estimates of trillions of dollars for each unprecedented proposal.
Harris, D-Calif., joined Sens. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., and Cory Booker, D-N.J. to co-sponsor the Green New Deal resolution earlier this month. The resolution's botched rollout included the release of an official document by New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's office that promised economic security even for those "unwilling to work," as well as the elimination of "farting cows" and air travel.
"There's no question we have to be practical. But being practical also recognizes that climate change is an existential threat to us as human beings," Harris began. "Being practical recognizes that greenhouse gas emissions are threat to our air, and threatening our planet. And that it is well within our capacity as human beings to change our behaviors in a way that we can reduce its effect. That's practical. Of course we can afford it."

Well ... it kinda is.
Laugh all you want. Repubs better develop a better answer or they could lise
Funny because that is what I say about The Wall.
here is an answer, she is not a natural born citizen.
Yes we need a broad detailed answer to the whole green/socialist wave now building on the house. These people are the future of the democrat party.
Typical commie lib broad. Loves spending other people’s money. What a ditz.
7500 years ago the ice here in Minneapolis would have been two miles thick. It melted. Don’t know why. Humans survived.
So did a lot of other critters and vegetation.
They are saying the temperature MIGHT rise a few degrees in the next hundred years. We will somehow overcome it.
We’re accustomed to lefty cliches but Harris seems unable to use them properly...she keeps contradicting herself in a lame effort to sound dramatic.
Smile and laugh. Her trademark.
She and other democrats are counting on an ignorant and uninformed electorate. The current education system is playing right into their hands.
Not sure how to turn this ship around.
“Meanwhile, the White House is angling for socialism to become the defining issue in the 2020 debate”
which has got the dying lying leftist fake stream enemedia in a real lather, screaming that it’s unfair or something for the GOP to be attacking the Dems for their avowed socialism ...
It is about having control over the means of production like Maduro, Castro and Kim have.
she needs a slap law suit from the republicans saying she is not qualified to be president. That will put her in check.
Or 5-6 secretaries of state to say they will not accept her for the ballot unless the USSC rules she is natural born citizen.
The fact that Harris doesn’t meet the qualifications for President aside for the moment, what is curious is that she sees advantage to moving farther to the Left than the Democrat Party already is ...
Keep veering hard left, Skanka!!!!
And keep being the dismissive arrogant b*tch that you are! You’ve already replaced Kankles as America’s nasty ex-wife.
I love Democrat candidates on the campaign trail.
“Free shirt! Come and get your free shirt!”
When you think about it, 7,500 years is not a very long time. It’s within grasp of our ability to think about what that number means. Jesus lived 2,000 years ago; the ice was that thick four times further back.
I grew up in upstate NY and we were also covered by two miles of ice then. I’m in north Idaho now and the ice was about 2,000 feet thick here on the edge of the ice sheets.
I want to hear one of them say “the green new deal just doesn’t go far enough”.
