Last week, we took a look at Kamala Harris' thread of influence. This week, we're sizing up Donald Trump's. Make no mistake that he's able to label, brand, and mass-market his messages to the public -- And JD Vance is following suit.

In this episode, we look at the trends inspired by Trump and the Republican Party, like the MAGA hat, that time President Biden was asked to put on the red cap (and did), and the Harris-Walz campaign's camo hat. From the way Trump and Vance label and nickname their opponents, to the "Republican Barbie" uniform, to cat lady sweaters on the latest runways, Juan Diego, Sara and Sofia are unpacking the controversies and cultural significance behind these choices. Plus, we talk about American humor in political fashion, such as 'nasty woman' T-shirts and cat lady sweaters -- and how these trending jokes might be on us.

Never thought we'd say this, but you could liken Kamala Harris' political career to the story of Goldilocks. Some moments are considered "too soft" on crime, other policies are considered "too hard." But is she "Commie-la" or "Cop-ala?" And can she lead a campaign that's "just right" for the American people?

In this episode, Sara and Juan Diego trace Kamala Harris' journey from the newly integrated elementary school, where she played 'Miss Mary Mack,' to her groundbreaking career as District Attorney, Attorney General, U.S. Senator, Vice President, and, now, the Democratic Party's presidential nominee. Sara and JD discuss her biracial identity, her strategic choice of Minnesota Governor Tim Walz as a running mate, and the multifaceted challenges she faces winning over both progressive and moderate voters. Along the way, the hosts tackle Harris's criminal record that have both elevated and haunted her career, painting a picture of a woman with a Black and Brown history that isn't so black or white.

The episode is co-hosted by Nationly’s producer-reporter Sofia Sanchez and multimedia journalist J.D. Ramirez.
