Uhh, Kamala didn't run on a platform of taxing the wealthy either, that would break the contract she has with her corporate sponsors.

Vice President Kamala Harris, the Democratic Party nominee, has proposed several policies that build on President Joe Biden’s recent budget plans. These include higher taxes on the wealthy and corporations and more generous tax breaks for lower-income workers, families, and small businesses.

https://itep.org/a-distributional-analysis-of-kamala-harris-tax-plan/

Taken together, the tax changes proposed by Vice President Kamala Harris would raise taxes on the richest 1 percent of Americans while cutting taxes on all other income groups.

If these proposals were in effect in 2026, the richest 1 percent of Americans would receive an average tax increase equal to 4.1 percent of their income. Other income groups would receive tax cuts, including an average tax cut equal to 2.7 percent of income for the middle fifth of Americans and an average tax cut equal to 7 percent of income for the poorest fifth of Americans.

Regardless of all of this data, Kamala is still a filthy liberal and you shouldn't vote for her.
