With the US Election in a matter of weeks,
I thought now would be a good time to talk about the policy platform of Vice President Kamala Harris.
Because, you know, she might win and policies matter.
This week we are going to ask, what is carmelanomics?
This is the Economics show with Samaya Keynes.
I'm joined by my colleague James Politi, Washington Bureau chief tuning in from D.C. james, hello.
Hey, Samaya.
Great to be here.
Great to have you.
We should probably start by just taking a moment to wish our colleague Colby Smith a swift recovery from COVID She was going to join us,
but has been felled by the Rona.
It's all very 2020.
And also speaking of things that I do not miss from 20,
James, how are you enjoying this election cycle?
Well, I mean, it's gone by so fast, weirdly, even though I still remember, you know,
eating cheese curds and lemonade at the Iowa State Fair in the summer of 2023 and wondering
if certain Ron DeSantis would be able to defeat Trump in the Republican primary.
And here we are two weeks away, and Joe Biden's not even in the race, and.
And Trump is definitely in contention.
So it's been kind of a wild ride.
