SOME INTERESTING TAKE-AWAYS FROM A RECENT SAN DIEGO UNION-TRIBUNE INTERVIEW WITH DIANE HARKEY

9/25/2018

She's proud of Donald Trump's enthusiastic endorsement of her (he tweeted "Diane has my total endorsement")
She loves the Republican tax bill that benefits the wealthy and corporations while driving our annual deficit to $1 trillion
She's very supportive of Donald Trump's trade wars
She's against Medicare for All (and any form of single payer health care) but doesn't seem to have any concrete policy proposals for how to improve health care
She is in favor of increasing pollution from cars and other vehicles by rolling back CAFE standards
When asked her view on climate change, she said: "I'm not a scientist... I can't read all of that stuff and make a decision." She apparently does not regard a scientific consensus with 95%+ agreement as enough "stuff" to warrant taking a position on an issue with serious global consequences.
She expressed support for one of the recent draconian Immigration bills proposed by the House (one that thankfully didn't go anywhere).
She supports Trump's border wall
She is on the record opposing gun safety laws
