True to form, Trump has now taken to calling Kamala Harris "low IQ" and "stupid," racist tropes he draws on whenever he's confronted by minorities, women or both. But for all her faults, Harris isn't stupid. In fact, she's demonstrated her ability to swiftly master and deftly deploy the finer points of Clintonian triangulation, the strategy of political bait-and-switch that prioritizes running against the core issues held by her own party, even policies she once enthusiastically promoted as signature features of her own previous campaigns. Pulling this off required some pretty adroit political gymnastics, where H…

By Germán Van de Velde — Aug 26, 2024 | The presidential elections of July 28 in Venezuela left countless experiences that must be systematized to study and predict future attacks by fascism against democracy, freedom and the human rights of our peoples.
