I didn't know this, but you're allowed to rob a store as long as it's not more than $950. Has everyone ever heard of that? You can rob a store and you have these thieves going into stores with calculators, calculating how much it is because if it's less than $950, they can rob it and not get charged. That was her [Kamala Harris] that did that.

Trump speaking to the press in Bedminster today, Thursday August 15. And this is the guy 1/3 of the country wants to be President.

Seems accurate to me, what's your beef, that they don't really carry a calculator?

PS I see you assimilated my "in your own words" post titling style. Similar to Kamala taking Trumps idea for no tax on tips...

Seems accurate to me,

It's not. And in at least two different ways.

First, robbery of less than $950 is still a crime. It's a misdemeanor rather than a potential felony, but it's still a crime. You are not allowed to do it.

Second, Vice President Harris had nothing to do with it. She was Attorney General of California at the time and did not take a public position on the law change this refers to, saying it would be inappropriate for her to do while in her position as AG.
