    The much bigger question is whether Harris will succeed in taxing unrealized capital gains

    A cynical but likely take is it will go about as well as when Biden made campaign promises dependent on congressional votes…

    Even if we have majorities, we’ll be told we don’t have the numbers to pass a vote so no vote will be held
