In the months since Kamala Harris became the Democratic presidential nominee, she has avoided the media as much as possible. Many would argue that this is largely because on the rare occasions that Harris does sit down for interviews, her incompetence is showcased to the world.
Indeed, Harris is known to frequently trip over her own words when she actually has to speak. She is also intentionally vague about her own policies, talking in circles instead of explaining the specific things that she plans to do as president.
On Wednesday, it was announced that Harris would be sitting down for an interview with MSNBC host Stephanie Ruhle. This may appeal to liberals, but conservatives were quick to point out that both MSNBC and Ruhle are firmly in Harris’ corner. They don’t try to hide just how biased they are in Harris’ favor, so it was painfully obvious that this interview would be full of softball questions.
Donald Trump’s running mate JD Vance (R-OH) pointed this out on social media. He held nothing back as he set fire to Harris’ “legitimately pathetic” MSNBC announcement.
From X:
“This is legitimately pathetic for a person who wants to be president.”“Ruhle has explicitly endorsed Harris. She won’t ask hard Qs. Kamala runs from tough questions because she can’t defend her record. If you want open borders and high groceries, vote for status quo Kamala.”
Ruhle Has Kamala’s Back
Others have argued that Ruhle has been one of Harris’ most outspoken supporters in the media. She’s even defended Harris for refusing to answer questions from reporters.
From Fox News:
“Kamala Harris is not running for perfect. She’s running against Trump. We have two choices,” said Ruhle while a guest on Bill Maher’s show.“And so there are some things you might not know her answer to,” she added. “And in 2024, unlike 2016 for a lot of the American people, we know exactly what Trump will do, who he is, and the kind of threat he is to democracy.”
What an odd thing for a member of the media to say!
One would think that a so-called reporter like Ruhle would be encouraging candidates of all political affiliations to talk to the press as much as possible. Instead, Ruhle is so entrenched in the left-wing propaganda machine that she’s actively encouraging Harris to stay quiet.
You really can’t make this stuff up.
Vance’s response to all of this is spot-on. Harris doesn’t want to give an interview to an unbiased reporter because she knows her abysmal record is indefensible.
In fact, Harris’ time as vice president in the Joe Biden administration has been historically bad. The economy has gone to shambles as inflation has skyrocketed. The border crisis has become out of control despite Biden making Harris his “border czar” in a desperate attempt to fix it. This has all led to Harris polling as one of the least popular vice presidents of all time.
Harris is well aware that she can’t defend herself against her many failures. That’s why she’s decided to stay silent and hide from the press as much as possible. In the end, Harris shouldn’t be surprised if this strategy comes back to bite her come November.
Key Takeaways:
- Harris sits down for an interview with MSNBC’s Stephanie Ruhle.
- JD Vance slams this as “legitimately pathetic.”
- Harris “can’t defend her record.”
