Kamala Harris, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow. I thought it was not going to be great.

I did not think it was going to be that not great. So, listen, Kamala Harris has been avoiding difficult interviews this entire election cycle. The most difficult interview she did was with Bill Whitaker, and 60 Minutes chopped it up to make her look better. That did not happen with Brett Baier, and it was a full-scale disaster area for her. So he opened right off the bat by asking her about illegal immigration. He said, you know, how many illegal immigrants have been let into the country under you? And she immediately swivels. She will not answer the question. She won't just say, listen,

We blew it at the beginning. We reversed Donald Trump's executive orders. We got it right now. We understand the problem. That's Joe. That's not me. That's the actual real answer. But she can't do that because she also wants to say that she owns it, that she was involved in every decision. Later on in this interview, by the way, she'd be talking about Donald Trump, and she would suggest you have to own everything your administration did. Well, lady, that's going to be a campaign ad because it turns out people do not like what you have done. In fact, Brett Baier asked her, you know, you keep saying, you're going to turn the page, turn the page.

So Brett Baier's like, from what? You're the current vice president of the United States. He realized Americans, 79% of them, don't like the direction of the country. You're the current incumbent. And she said, well, yes, but Donald Trump has been running. He said, well, yeah, but you're the current vice president of the United States of America. What the hell does Donald Trump running have to do with anything? No answer from her. He asked about Lakin Riley and other people slain by illegal immigrants. And she tried to blame that

on the failure to pass a border bill in 2023. Okay, but the problem is that the illegal immigrants who were let in were let in well before that border bill was even proposed to Congress. So it makes no sense whatsoever. He asked her about whether she would still be in favor of transgender surgeries for illegal immigrants and federal inmates. And she said, I will abide by the law. That's not an answer. That's you saying yes. That's you saying that you still would use taxpayer dollars to pay for all of those things. He asked her,

about the fact that she has been covering for Joe Biden's senility for three and a half years. And instead of answering, she says, no, I've been in the room with him. I've been there the whole time. He's great. And by the way, he's not on the ticket. And Baer follows up. He's like, yes, but we can all see he's diminished. That's the reason you're here. And she refuses once again to answer the question. Man, she looked bad. She looked absolutely awful. She looked contentious,

She looked angry at Brett Baer for having the temerity to ask her any sort of serious question. She's got to be super ticked at her team for suggesting that she do Brett Baer in the first place.

Now, she's unwilling or unable to answer any question about policy at all in this election cycle. The only thing she's got, and everybody knows it, is Trumpy Trump, McTrump Trump, McTrump Trump. But here is the problem. The minute you dig below the surface, what you realize is that she is an empty vessel for the entire Biden administration agenda. And she's not particularly smart. She doesn't know her own policies well enough to make cogent and interesting distinctions about how her policies work. She doesn't understand how to defend the policies that she has herself put into place.

She tried to suggest that she'd be tougher on Iran than Donald Trump. I mean, these things make no sense whatsoever. And the biggest thing, the biggest thing that rolled off of her

was enormous disdain for having to be there. That was the thing that rolled off of her in waves. So much of these interviews, it's true for debate also, so much of it is sort of the attitude you bring to it. And the reason that J.D. Vance did really well in the vice presidential debate is because he didn't come in hot and aggressive and angry. He came in and he was sort of open body language and accepting the terms of the debate. And yeah, he pushed back here and there, but he was really kind of kind and generous during the debate.

That was the mistake that Donald Trump made in 2020 against Joe Biden. It was all a problem of affect. He came in super hot, really aggressive. Okay, so Kamala Harris sits down with Brett Baier, and instead of being friendly and saying, listen, Brett, we have some statistics that suggest that

say six million illegal immigrants have entered the country it is our job to do a better job of that on the border that was a mistake that joe biden made when he came into office we were optimistic about what could happen with the border we thought a bill would get passed quickly obviously that wasn't true and we were delayed we were belated in actually doing the things that we should have done by closing the border back up we're doing it now i promise to do that going forward that's the best answer obviously but she can't give that answer and she refuses to give that and she gets angry when she's asked that's the thing she's really angry about having to run a race

That's the part that's amazing. She is ticked at having to run this thing. Why? Well, because literally every job that she's ever had, with the exception of the DA job, which she won in a race against Steve Cooley in California, has been handed to her on a silver platter. Kamala Harris has always been the sort of fair-haired child when it comes to people just handing her things. Hell, she was handed the vice presidency after running the worst presidential campaign in modern American history. I mean, the list of gaffes in this interview is almost endless.

Again, she suggested Joe Biden is totally fine. She at one point, Brett Baier has to openly state, Brett Baier has to openly say, your handlers want me to stop this interview. Like they really want you to stop this interview. You know, she she again is unable to simply to explain even why she's not responsible for what Joe Biden is doing.

And so you have to wonder, where does she go from here? Seriously, where does she go? If this is the best she can do against Brett Baier, and you see, you know, the Democrats are going to try and spin this as though she was cogent and interesting. She faced down a brutal grilling, a really hard interviewer, and now she's brave. Okay, well, points for bravery, I suppose. Bold strategy, Cotton. We'll see how it does for you. If the idea is doing this and then doing Joe Rogan for three hours,

When she is asked a point-blank question, she cannot answer the question. She simply cannot. She cannot defend her own policies. The only line of attack she has is just saying Trump and Trump and Trump again. That's really the only line of attack any Kamala Harris defenders have at this point.

I really don't think that's going to be enough because it turns out that in order to vote against Donald Trump or to show up to vote in favor of Kamala Harris, she's going to have to show something beyond a radical, sneering disdain for anyone who has questions about why the hell she's here and what she will do as president of the United States.
