(DCNF)—Hoover Institution senior fellow Victor Davis Hanson stated Thursday on his podcast that Democrats “hate” the middle and lower classes, claiming voters have “had it” with Vice President Kamala Harris’ attempts to appeal to them.
Harris has repeatedly faced criticism for her flip-flopping on left-wing policies she once championed prior to 2020 and for her campaign’s association with liberal elites. On “The Victor Davis Hanson Show,” Hanson noted that despite giving Harris the “benefit of the doubt,” voters are increasingly fed up with her “desperate” attempts to appease various voter groups.
“Well, they’ve been giving her the benefit of the doubt for over 90 days, and I think now they’re just saying, ‘You know what? Now she’s desperate, and she’s trying to buy black votes with giveaways. She’s trying to copy Trump’s proposals. She’s flipped on every single issue, from the border to crime. She was for defund the police. She says she has a Glock gun,’” Hanson said.
“‘I remember when she was governor, she tried to outlaw models of Glocks. She won’t tell us what, where she bought it, when she bought it. Ditto [with] McDonald’s — where she worked, when she worked. I had it with her, I’m done.’ Jigs up, bam,” Hanson continued. “And I think the left is really hurting themselves because they don’t know what to do.”
Hanson continued to call out Democrats for not interacting with middle and lower classes in America, noting that their appeal through ads to voters amounts to “counterproductive caricatures.”

“You see everybody, they hate us. They hate the middle classes, they hate the upper-middle class, middle-middle class, lower-middle class, and yet they understand that they can’t hang on to power unless they fool that class,” Hanson said.
The vice president has sought help from Hollywood elites in her campaign, attending her first fundraiser on Sept. 29 in the Los Angeles area since becoming the nominee. The event featured celebrity attendees like Stevie Wonder, Demi Lovato, Jessica Alba, and Lily Tomlin and was estimated to bring in around $55 million, alongside another fundraiser in San Francisco that weekend, according to Spectrum News 1.
“They’re never around the middle class, so then they make these commercials about what they think the middle class is like, and they end up to be counterproductive caricatures — they’re just laughable. Or when they think they have to talk to middle-class blacks [saying,] ‘You all,” Hanson added. “She literally, in a week, she faked a Jamaican accent, a Mexican accent and a black accent, and all badly … it’s all fake. It’s fake, and everybody, that’s what I think they’ve concluded.”
However, despite the fundraising efforts from elites, polls and political pundits have warned the Democratic campaign that Harris has been slipping in the polls among men, specifically black male voters.
In an attempt to appeal to these groups, the campaign released a grassroots ad on Friday featuring men boasting about being “man enough” to engage in various stereotypically male activities while also supporting women’s issues and Harris. Additionally, Harris unveiled new proposals on Monday to provide Black men “with the tools to achieve financial freedom, lower costs to better provide for themselves and their families, and protect their rights,” CNN reported.
