Kamala Harris faced Fox News anchor Bret Baier in a trainwreck interview on Wednesday, October 16.
The Vice President’s appearance on the most conservative mainstream media outlet was unexpected, though many on the right doubted whether Baier would sufficiently scrutinize the Democratic nominee. Needless to say, Baier proved the doubters wrong.
If you didn’t catch the interview, here’s what you missed.
The interview began with a question on illegal immigration. When the 54-year-old asked for a specific number of illegal aliens the Biden-Harris administration had permitted into the U.S, Harris completely dodged the question.
Harris, described by many as the “border czar”, struggled on questions relating to migrant crime.
She then tried to claim there was a “broken immigration system”, despite previously claiming that the border is secure.
Illegal aliens remained a subject on the next segment focusing on taxpayer-funded sex changes for prisoners. Harris’ response to a Donald Trump campaign ad in which she expressed her position was to complain about the former president’s expenditure.
A majority of voters trust Trump more than Harris when it comes to the economy; her failure to provide details on her plans when pressed by Baier was a good indication as to the reason why.
For much of the campaign, Harris has struggled to differentiate herself from the administration in which she is Vice President. She refused to elaborate what she would do differently from President Joe Biden when pressed by Baier.
This theme continued into the next segment, where a confused Harris prompted Baier to ask, “What are you talking about?”
With the Vice President on the backfoot, Harris became angry when Baier played a clip of Trump denying one of her campaign’s most prominent attacks.
Although her ascension to Democratic nominee came as a result of an internal scheme to remove Biden from the ticket, Harris could only attack Trump when asked about the President’s cognitive state.
Concluding the interview, Baier reminded the Democratic nominee that she had spent virtually no time talking about herself, instead focusing her entire narrative on former president Trump. Baier said “they” – whom many thought referred to Harris’ spin doctors – were giving him a hard time in the background as the interview was brought to a close.
