Vice President Kamala Harris claimed during Tuesday's presidential debate that she was raised in a middle-class household, sparking debate and fact-checking efforts.


However, fact-checkers have found this claim to be mostly false, as Harris grew up in an affluent neighborhood in Montreal, Canada, far from the modest life she suggested she knew, as Breitbart reports.

Harris made the comment while sidestepping a direct question about whether Americans were better off now than four years ago.


Instead of answering, she pivoted to her personal background, suggesting that her middle-class upbringing shaped her understanding of the needs of average Americans. Harris emphasized that her plan would uplift middle-class and working families.

Harris’ Focus on Middle-Class Solutions​

In an attempt to further align with the struggles of working-class families, Harris shared her belief in the dreams and ambitions of the American people.


She elaborated on her proposed “opportunity economy,” claiming that it would address the challenges facing many Americans, including high housing costs and insufficient support for young families.

The vice president's statements painted a picture of a person who understands the struggles of everyday citizens. She noted the shortage of affordable housing and the difficulty many families face in raising their children under current economic conditions. Harris positioned herself as someone who would deliver solutions to these issues.

Fact-Check Reveals Harris’ Wealthy Upbringing

However, a closer look at Harris’ background reveals that her claim of being raised in a middle-class environment may not reflect reality.

Breitbart News politics editor Emma-Jo Morris fact-checked Harris’ statements and reported that Harris grew up in one of the wealthiest neighborhoods in Montreal, Canada. Westmount, the area in question, is described by Jo-Morris as not only the most affluent area in Montreal but also one of the richest neighborhoods in all of Canada.


Harris’ home during her teenage years was located on Grosvenor Avenue, a prestigious street lined with Victorian homes. According to Harris’ high school friend, these homes often sell for over $1 million CAD. This stands in stark contrast to Harris’ portrayal of a modest, middle-class life.

Harris’ Friend Paints a Different Picture​

An op-ed written by Harris’ former high school friend further contradicts the vice president's claims of a struggling background. According to this source, Harris enjoyed a stable and comfortable upbringing, complete with family dinners and a secure home life. This depiction of her youth seems to conflict with the narrative of hardship and struggle that Harris implied during the debate.

Was Donald Trump's family and he lying about being Swedish?
 
She worked at McDonald's which is unverified

Kamala Harris’s summer job at McDonalds is the latest thing under Trump’s skin


"Harris has repeatedly mentioned her brief stint holding down a summer job at the fast food joint while at college since she ascended to the top of the Democratic party’s ticket. And, for some reason, it appears to have gotten under Trump’s skin." - weird

:cuckoo:

fact: Harris briefly worked at a McDonald’s restaurant in Alameda during a summer back in California between college semesters in the early 1980s.

Did her left-wing dead-beat dad cut her off or something?

In fact, Obama's dad left his family as well.

It's a Left-wing thingy.
 
She probably just slept with the manager so he would punch her in and out without ever having shown up to work.

That would be my guess.

Nah, Don't confuse her with the Nickel-chaser-in-Chief

“I did the french fries and I did the ice cream,” she told workers.

She acknowledged in her remarks at the time that she did not rely on the job to support a family unlike many workers who do rely on income from typically lower-wage fast food work.

“There was not a family relying on me to pay the rent, put food on the table and keep the bills paid by the end of the month,” she added. “But the reality of McDonald’s is that a majority of the folk who are working there today are relying on that income to sustain a household and a family.”

Maybe you're just from a low class family so you think her family was affluent. Judging by your MacDonald remarks, that's a dead giveaway. Didn't you have stability and family dinners?

She was born with a silver spoon in her mouth, as she lived in that million-dollar neighborhood with a million-dollar education to prepare her for college, and then get into college because of her well to do family.

She lied.

And all you can do is put up nude photos of your political opponents and ask if Trump is acutally Swedish.

Both her parents were professors. They lived in a high-end neighborhood in Montreal.

She slept with the manager to get the imaginary fry station gig at her imaginary MC'D's job.
