Immediately after President Joe Biden left the race a week ago, Harris began to craft her own narrative around the economy. Not once in speeches did she mention the word "inflation," the overwhelming economic challenge that has dogged Biden's administration. Republicans have quickly moved to blame Harris for the inflation that less than a week ago they pinned on Biden. (AP Photo/Tony Gutierrez, File)
