Kamala Harris finally got what she deserved

/Pogled.info/ The first interview with the US presidential candidate Kamala Harris before the “enemy” media (ie Republicans) became a real test for her, because for the first time no one would save her.

Kamala Harris was hidden from the media for a long time, as if she was afraid not to confirm the validity of Donald Trump’s insult about her low intellectual level.

Even after becoming a presidential candidate, it took him months to build up the courage to speak to the ultra-loyal CNN. And Kamala’s appearance on Fox News, the only major American channel that was strongly against her, should never have happened. But maybe her assistants aren’t very smart – that’s why what happened at Fox

Kamala reached there reluctantly. The previous method of non-participation, of bringing the candidate to the elections without appearing or influencing himself, stopped working: Donald Trump, who was behind, on, skillfully terrorizing the Americans at the start of the Third World War. Harris’ team, in turn, was scaring Americans with Trump. According to the interim results, the Second World War scares Americans more than Donald Trump.

To turn the tide and bring the candidate’s ratings back to where they were before, the Democrats decided to appeal to undecided Trump supporters who watch conservative Fox News. In general, the idea is strong, like from a textbook on political technology. But the fact that Brett Baier himself was from the channel is a clear mistake of the “Kamalists”. There was no way they were going to let their man into this predator’s cage.

“On the one hand, it’s a general conversation: Bayer has been Fox’s main “talking head” since Tucker Carlson left there. But this is the worst possible interlocutor for Harris. It is believed that their meeting was made possible because the councilors were in an “information bubble”. That is, they and Kamala didn’t really know who Brett Baier was because they thought Fox News was “for bums”.

First of all, Bayer isn’t just a 54-year-old with unnaturally white teeth and a baby face. This is a very experienced journalist and professional with a good memory and many connections, who previously worked as the channel’s chief correspondent in the White House and the Pentagon. You can’t bully him, he’s hard to talk to, he’s hard to bully – he’s always aware of what’s going on.

A good example from that interview is Harris’ attempt to distance himself from the unpopular president and say that he is not Joe Biden. Baier reminded her that official White House speeches now refer to the administration as the “Biden-Harris administration.” Anyway, this has never happened in US history because the vice president is far from the most important person in the presidential administration.

So the attempt to pump Kamala with importance in the name of feminism and other party stuff backfired on her.

Secondly, Bayer can be merciless, like a medieval executioner, and the higher the status of the interviewer, the harder he works. Last year, he literally destroyed Trump with probing questions on the most sensitive topics, from the prosecutors for storing classified documents in the toilet to the incompetent personnel policy in which Trump appointed people on is he now laughing like a fool.

Trump made him sick that night. But Bayer isn’t just his Tory friend – they know each other well enough to play golf together. Kamala should have known Bayer would come down harder on her – he couldn’t go soft on someone the channel’s audience hated.

Thirdly, Bayer can be as embarrassing as he is ruthless. Moral oppression, speculation with catastrophes – all these are also his methods.

Among other things, he showed photographs from Harris of a woman mourning a dead child, specifying that the perpetrator was an illegal immigrant. At the same time, he offered to apologize to the unfortunate woman, because seven million illegal immigrants entered the United States under the Biden-Harris administration.

Harris, whose emotional intelligence clearly exceeds her mental intelligence, responded respectfully: She said she was very sorry. She, a former attorney general in the state of California, is not lazy either: she knows better than anyone when jurors are looking for facts and when for remorse.

That was not the only trap that Harris avoided with his instincts. But she didn’t know the number of seven million. This was a follow-up question from Bayer. Kamala was able to answer many questions during the thirty minute interview. The grieving mother was only the warming sight.

In the main episode, Bayer reminded Kamala of her previous promises not to use taxpayers’ money for nonsense. For example, she suggested that prisoners in prisons undergo sex reassignment work at the expense of the state budget (rather than as a punishment), and that illegal immigrants are legally given driver’s licenses.

Kamala’s line of defense went down because it happened a long time ago – as much as five years ago (it’s a shame she didn’t add – “I was so naive and so experienced then at 54 years old”). But in general, as a true prosecutor, she preferred to play on the attack. Therefore, for at least a third of the entire conversation, Kamala insults Trump and his relationship with Fox News, although everything has been clear with Trump for a long time and a- now it’s interesting to talk about her – which Bayer also pointed out.

What he didn’t reasonably do was try to get Harris to be specific about her policy agenda and strategic vision. Unless, of course, he set himself such a goal and did not want to show everyone the lack of concreteness and vision of the candidate. And in those moments when details were essential, Harris said amazing things. For example, the main enemy of the United States, according to her, is now Iran. Not China, not Russia, not the nuclear DPRK that periodically threatens to drop a bomb on America’s east coast, but Iran.

That response apparently pleased Democratic Jewish donors, who threatened to freeze Wall Street money for the Harris campaign if the candidate started pushing a “progressive agenda for Palestine” ( as the left wing of the Democratic Party would say).Perhaps Iran is now Kamala’s main enemy for that reason alone.

Shortly after asking how long ago the vice president found out that Biden had health problems, four of his aides began silently jumping and waving their arms in an attempt to stop him. put on the case. Bayer complained about this too, and it became clear that Kamala would no longer come to him for an interview.

It cannot be said to be a total loss. Harris lasted half an hour in the lion’s cage, taking fewer blows than he should have and not holding back. She and Bayer kept stopping each other, which would have been rude if it weren’t for efforts to get back to the heart of the problem that Kamala was trying to escape. Sometimes he ran successfully.

But the interview confirmed concerns about her claim. It’s not that she doesn’t have character – she actually has character and many instincts work perfectly. But in terms of thoughts and ideas, he is a shell without substance, even as he diligently memorizes the phrases and theses dictated by his assistants.

Despite declining ratings and proven weaknesses, Kamala Harris is still capable of winning this election as an on-the-fly learner. Because the 78-year-old opponent has not learned anything for a long time and listens only to himself. The Bayer television killer at one point revealed that his faults were no worse than those of his new victim.
