In her first sit-down interview with the media as a presidential candidate, Kamala Harris and her running mate Tim Walz attempted to lay out their vision for America if elected. However, it wasn’t the discussion itself that garnered the most criticism — it was the condensed length of the interview and the lack of transparency regarding it.
The segment was reportedly shortened to just 26 minutes and CNN, who conducted the interview, will not be releasing the full transcript leading many to speculate that the interview was a disaster.
U.S. Senator Tommy Tuberville blasted Harris over the interview and for not agreeing to an unscripted version.
“Democrats think Americans are stupid. Kamala Harris’ latest ‘interview’ was yet another coup aided and abetted by the complicit Mainstream Media who is trying to rig this election for Democrats,” Tuberville (R-Auburn) told Yellowhammer News. “The truth is Kamala won’t commit to doing a live, unscripted interview because she knows her radically left policies of erasing our borders, defunding the police, eliminating private health insurance, and imposing price controls are deeply unpopular.”
“Americans don’t like a phony and they will see right through Kamala Harris in November.”
Fox and Friends also delivered devastating criticism of the pre-recorded interview.
