When we learned that Kamala Harris had agreed to an interview on Fox News Channel’s “Special Report” with Bret Baier, it was a telltale sign that the Harris-Walz campaign knew it was losing the election. Harris, upon becoming the Democratic Party’s presumptive presidential nominee, refused to do any interviews or press conferences, limiting her public appearances to highly controlled and scripted events.
Then, suddenly, she started doing interviews with friendly networks. Nothing risky. No hard questions. No substance. Lather, rinse, repeat.
Kamala thought these softball interviews would work, but none delivered the results the Harris-Walz campaign hoped for. Last week, CNN’s Dana Bash acknowledged that Harris’s team is aware these efforts weren’t working, reinforcing the sense of desperation behind this media blitz.
Clearly, going on Fox News was a Hail Mary, and it was bad. You could tell right away it wasn’t going to go well for her. She was evasive, often filibustering with word salads to run down the clock and prevent Baier from asking questions she didn’t want to answer.
The shouting was a terrible look for her. So was talking over Baier, refusing to let him finish asking questions, and then proceeding to pivot away and respond with her rehearsed lines, even when they didn’t actually answer the question she was asked. If she didn’t want to answer a question, she just didn’t.
And she got nasty at times.
She even refused to apologize to the families of women who were assaulted and killed by illegal immigrants allowed into the country thanks to Biden-Harris border policies.
Things got bizarre when she tried to blame Trump for the situation. She’s often leaned on the “bipartisan” border bill from earlier this year, which isn’t a very good talking point anyway, but when asked repeatedly by Baier about the period before that bill, she had nothing to say.
Obey
