Vice President Kamala Harris's campaign is employing a decidedly different tactic than what President Joe Biden used when he ran against former President Donald Trump.Axios reports that while Biden's campaign presented Trump as a dire threat to the American republic, the Harris campaign has opted fo...

I wonder if she wasn't female if they would use the word "Saucier"
- First thing I thought as well. If she wasn’t a woman it would be something like “sharp, more direct.”
  
  But hey, at least we noticed the gendered language? That’s…..something.
- What’s the male gender equivalent? language to saucier? Spicier? Trollier? Combative?
  
  Harris launches bare-knuckle attack while her pendulous balls swing.
  
  Probably "tough" or "passionate", though you could just look at one of the "both sides" titles they use for Trump's tirades.
- That really depends on if she had a husband or a wife. I can see them calling a queer man saucy, I can’t imagine a straight man running for president being called saucy
....she's totally going to make him drop the n-word.

Ridiculing him until he ego makes him crack is not a terrible idea, and it's pretty damn entertaining.
- Would it be? I feel like his supporters would take it as a sign that they can also openly use it without consequences.
8 years ago Hillary got in trouble for calling them deplorable. Oh how the turn tables...
- And the hit dogs hollered.
  
  Just like when Obama said they were clinging to their guns and bibles.
- The difference is that a lot of people strongly hated the Clintons. So any slip from her was a reason for the opposition to pounce.
  
  Kamala has so much swagger that even Republicans are supporting her. It doesn't help that so many people are disgusted with Trump. So If Kamala slips, she turns it into a backflip and the opposition are too busy infighting to mount a attack.
his new tactic was on display at last week's Democratic National Convention, where Harris described Trump as "an unserious man" while also arguing that "the consequences of putting Donald Trump back in the White House are extremely serious."

Such ruthless. Very sauce. Wow.
Yes, more of this. Belittle the orange man. Call him small. Call him sad. Call him pathetic.
I really enjoyed the video calling Trump a chicken.

I just hope she doesn’t go too far. I’m all for calling Trump out, but I don’t want Harris to cross the line and look like a bully.
- Serious question:
  
  What would it look like for Harris or the DNC to be a bully to trump?
  
  A LOT, actually. The more I think about it, the less realistic this concern seems. I’m glad you asked. Thanks!
  
  Fucking glorious.
- The Dems high road and the GOP bottom of the barrel distance is now staggering, there is plenty of space to ridicule those weird fuckers. Fighting the reprehensible is never bullying.
- As long as he's wearing his lifts, she'll always be punching up.
