Kamala Harris Sits Down With a Non-Regime Outlet, It Goes As Expected

October 16th, 2024 9:22 PM

When it was first announced that Vice President Kamala Harris agreed to a sit-down interview with Fox News, there were questions about what the intended outcome might have been, and what Harris might have expected to gain from what was going to be an interview far more adversarial than she is accustomed to. After watching the interview, it is clear that she did not expect to be asked tough questions.

The interview was contentious from the very beginning, and began with immigration. The first question was on whether Harris knew how many illegal migrants were released into the interior. 

Harris was rattled both by Bret Baier’s question, and by his refusal to allow her to non-respond with talking point word salad. Baier’s followup drilled deeper, with a focus on heinous crimes committed by illegal migrants. Harris wants to deflect to the dead-on-arrival comprehensive immigration bill filed on Inauguration Day, and on the failed Senate bill. 

Baier killed the talking point on the Senate bill by pointing out that six Democrats opposed the bill. He then pivots to saying the names of Jocelyn Nungaray, Rachel Morin and Laken Riley, who were brutally murdered by illegal migrants. 

Harris word-saladed Baier’s first attempt at extracting an apology. Baier had a clip with testimony from Nungaray’s mother, which got a ghoulish response: “I’m sorry” followed by a pivot back to Trump and the failed border deal.

Baier then proceeds to confront Harris with her policy proposals from her 2019 campaign. Here she reverted to her prosecutorial word salad.

Baier moves on from immigration, and asks Harris another question that she hadn’t seen so far in the cycle: on her support for using taxpayer dollars on sex change surgeries for inmates while serving as California Attorney General. During this combative exchange, Harris coughed up what might be a campaign-breaking quote: “You gotta take responsibility for what happened in your administration.”

At this stage of the game, “what would you do differently from Joe Biden” should not come as a surprise. And yet, Harris had no real answer:

Drilling down, Baier challenges Harris on her “turn the page” talking point. More word salad.

Another brutal exchange was on 79% of Americans thinking the country is on the wrong track. 

Here’s another question Team Harris should’ve totally expected: the question about what she knew regarding President Joe Biden’s declining mental and physical faculties.

Harris’s frustrations boiled over and it shows:

The interview ends with Baier letting everybody know that Harris campaign staff was desperately trying to wave him off of her. Total train wreck.

Bret Baier gave a masterclass of an interview to someone unaccostumed to having to answer tough questions outside of the respective liberal bubbles of D.C. and California. In so doing, he further exposed the sycophancy of the Regime Media.

Harris came into this interview hoping for more exposure to those unfamiliar with her ahead of a pivotal voting decision. Unfortunately, she got it.
