People voted in mass for that option.
On a side note when this blows up in their faces, I will have ZERO sympathy. They want it, they got it.
And Harris published a detailed platform on her campaigns website but was still criticized for not standing for anything.
We have that in the UK, the parties all publish manifestos before elections. I think it helps to get the message across and to be clear about what they are and aren’t promising to do. They aren’t, however, legally enforceable so parties aren’t obliged to actually follow up on their promises.
“I promise cupcakes for everybody!”
“Thats terribly bold of you sir…what about the diabetic?”
“Don’t worry Johnson. It’s just an empty promise! I’ll be the only one to get cupcakes! Mwa ha ha ha ha!!!”
