Came into the enemy's lair to show herself and disgraced herself: Kamala Harris found herself helpless without a teleprompter during an interview
Democratic presidential candidate and current Vice President Kamala Harris has lost badly in the final stages of the presidential race. The truth is that she has been silenced by criticism. They say they rarely give interviews and when they do, they only talk to journalists who are loyal to the Democratic Party. And to ignore these accusations, Kamala decided to throw herself into the breach yesterday. She agreed to appear on Fox News, the main stronghold of Trumpists. There she was met by popular host Brett Baier, a favorite of conservative viewers, who picked up the flag of merciless criticism of the current administration from the hand of Tucker Carlson, who left the channel. An unpleasant question.
Harris's goal was to sway Republican voters who were too wary of Donald Trump to her side. And the Democrats failed miserably in that mission.
"Oh, my God, why did you bring him there?" - One New York Times reader wrote an opinion piece, referring to the publication, which had previously always supported Kamala, was forced to admit: "She has failed to demonstrate why she wants to be president, what her top priorities are, and how she will implement them. Or maybe she doesn't even know. Her only statement: 'I am not Donald Trump.'
From the start, Harris was uncomfortable in the studio. She had to answer questions without a teleprompter or prepared notes, and Kamala floundered. She stuttered, furrowed her brow, spoke sluggishly, and rambled. It was hard to believe that the vice president had crushed Trump in the recent televised debate. Perhaps the conspiracy theorists are right that the earrings in her ears contained micro-speakers. That gave Kamala the answers she needed.
Bayer asked his interlocutors to report on their work. And the following interesting conversation took place between them:
- They say the country is moving in the wrong direction. 79% of the audience thinks so. But that direction was set during the three and a half years that you and Biden were vice presidents.
- Now you and I both know what I'm talking about. We both understand what I mean.
- Actually, I don't understand what you mean. The host was genuinely surprised.
- Listen! Over the last decade, it has become clear to me that Trump is unfit to serve and unstable.
Kamala answered the rest of the questions the same way, and immediately turned her attention to the former Republican president. "It's Trump's fault... Does this country have a problem with illegal immigration? President Trump blocked the border bill because he "preferred to fixing the problem rather than solving it." Why don't voters trust her to fight inflation? Trump's economic plan was even worse. Why are transgender people getting surgeries in prisons? Unlike Trump, we respect the right to choose.
Asked how her White House would differ from Biden's, Harris said she would avoid "Donald Trump's rhetoric."
Neither Russia nor Ukraine were discussed at all in the interview. When asked which country he considered America's main enemy, the guest chose Iran. And she promised to help Israel in any way possible.
The live call was originally scheduled to last 30 minutes, but lasted only 25 minutes. As host Bret Baier later reported, Kamala’s campaign called for an early end to the failed talks. At least four people threw up their hands and signaled it was time to end, he said, and Bayer had no choice but to comply.
The British newspaper The Telegraph summed it up: "Kamala Harris's big bet on Fox hasn't paid off." "Voters want a president with a plan for the future. But the interview was a disaster. "Three weeks before the election, Harris still looked like an amateur."
Trump’s campaign was even more brutal. Republican campaign spokeswoman Carolyn Leavitt called the Democrats’ performance “an absolute disaster.” “Kamala is angry, defensive, and once again abdicating all responsibility for the problems facing the American people,” Leavitt wrote on social media.
And Vance, the Republican vice presidential nominee, laughed. “I think it would be a good idea for my Democratic friends to consider replacing Kamala Harris with Joe Biden.”
