RFK Jr. questions Harris's claim that she is 'middle class'

Robert F. Kennedy Jr., among many others, is questioning Vice President Kamala Harris's claim that she is "middle class." 

Kennedy did so, according to Fox News, in Walker, Michigan, on Friday.

The independent presidential candidate was there to participate in a campaign event that was hosted by former President Donald Trump's 2024 campaign.

Kennedy, of course, has suspended his own campaign and has endorsed Trump, which is why Kennedy is now campaigning on Trump's behalf.

Harris "middle class," really??

In recent weeks, one of Harris's newest claims is that, not only is she for the middle class, but she is also of the middle class.

At a recent event, for example, the Washington Post quotes Harris as saying:

I grew up in a middle-class family. And while we were more fortunate than many, I still remember my mother sitting at that yellow Formica table late at night, a cup of tea in hand with a pile of bills in front of her, just trying to make sure that she paid them off by the end of the month.

The only problem is that this does not appear to be true. Harris is not "middle-class."

Breitbart, among others, has reported:

As Breitbart News Politics Editor Emma-Jo Morris previously reported, she “lived up the street from where” Harris “went to school.” Morris explained that Harris’s childhood and adolescence were “spent living in an upper-class enclave in Montreal, Canada.”

Here is more proof if you need it.

Kennedy weighs in

Kennedy took a different approach to exposing Harris.

He put it this way:

All you have to know is seven words, and you never have to admit to doing anything wrong again. And you know what those seven words are? "I was born in the middle class."

Kennedy then asked the crowd a series of questions, which the crowd answered with "I was born in the middle class." "The next time your boss asks you why you were late for work, what are you gonna say?" Kennedy asked, to which the crowd replied, "I was born in the middle class!"

Kennedy's claim is that this is one of the ways that Harris has learned to avoid difficult questions, namely, by responding that she is from the "middle class." Harris, in fact, has used this device.

The more important question, though, is how many Americans are buying what Harris is selling and how many realize that she is only saying these things to get elected. Time will tell.
