Even CNN's Liberal Freak Jake Tapper Knocks Kamala Harris For Refusing to Answer Questions In the Debate
Ed Morrissey notes that Tapper, of course, "both sides" the question-dodging, claiming Trump also failed to be specific when answering some questions.
But we've already seen four years of President Trump -- we have a pretty firm idea not just what his policies are in the abstract, but in real-world practice. Kamala Harris continues to be a red diaper baby Manchurian Candidate cipher that climbed the political ladder on her back and on her knees.
However, any recognition in the mainstream media of Harris' evasiveness may qualify as a "shocking moment of journalism." Harris evaded all policy questions, including one example Tapper never mentions: tariffs. Trump certainly answered that policy question, and tried answering many questions with policy statements about border security and immigration control. Harris avoided all of those too, and got completely skunked on tariffs when Trump pointed out that Joe Biden and Harris continued the tariffs that Trump imposed. Harris looked like she wasn't even aware that the tariffs were still in place...
She almost certainly isn't aware. Remember, a major source of tension in her office is that her aides write her briefing books that she doesn't read, and then attacks her staff for not properly informing her when she embarrasses herself publicly with her ignorance.
Update: Yesterday I expressed caution about a CNN poll showing that Trump had gained on the number one voter concern, the economy. I said the poll might have reached more Trump supporters than Harris supporters.
However, those polls said, by 55%, that Harris won the debate.
But still Trump climbed on the economy. Probably because Harris made it clear, despite her best efforts, that she was doubling down on Bidenomics.
