Even the NY Times Admits That Stephanie Ruhle Is a Hardcore Kamala Harris Partisan Who Did Not Press Her on Any Issues, Says Kamala Harris Failed to Offer Any Substantive Answers

Even the NY Times feels compelled to point out that this was a hacky softball "interview" designed not to elicit Kamala Harris' "plan" but to hide it.

As Vice President Kamala Harris parses out the details of her agenda, she has favored broad strokes over detailed policy papers. Only recently has she begun sitting for interviews, which have elicited few details about what her presidential administration might look like.

Little about that careful approach changed during a 25-minute interview with Stephanie Ruhle of MSNBC that was broadcast on Wednesday night. It was Ms. Harris's first one-on-one interview on cable television since becoming the Democratic nominee.

In her discussion with a friendly interviewer, the vice president again presented herself as a champion of the middle class and hit many of the same themes from her pro-business economic speech earlier in the day. She largely avoided direct questions about how she would govern and why some voters remain fond of former President Donald J. Trump's stewardship of the economy.

Here are three takeaways from Ms. Harris's interview.

Ms. Ruhle's first question was about how Ms. Harris might respond to people who hear her proposals and say, "These policies aren't for me." The MSNBC host's second was about why voters tend to tell pollsters that Mr. Trump is better equipped to handle the economy.

Ms. Harris responded to the fairly basic and predictable questions with roundabout responses that did not provide a substantive answer.


Instead of offering any explanation for why Mr. Trump polls better on the economy -- a matter that has vexed Democrats as President Biden has overseen a steadily improving economy -- Ms. Harris instead blasted Mr. Trump's record. She blamed him for a loss of manufacturing and autoworker jobs and said his tariff proposals would serve as an added sales tax on American consumers.

She said nothing about why voters think Mr. Trump and Republicans would be better on the economy.

But she did say her policies are for everyone.


...

A hard-hitting Harris interview is still yet to come.

Since Ms. Harris began granting more interviews in recent days, her media strategy has been to sit with friendly inquisitors who are not inclined to ask terribly thorny questions or press her when her responses are evasive.

Nothing about that changed during her interview with Ms. Ruhle before her audience on MSNBC, the liberal cable channel whose viewers overwhelmingly favor Democratic candidates.

It's not quite clear what Ms. Harris gained, aside from giving her campaign aides the ability to say she held a one-on-one cable television interview.

For the vice president, speaking with Ms. Ruhle was roughly in the same ballpark as Mr. Trump having one of his regular chats with Sean Hannity of Fox News.

Last week, Ms. Ruhle openly showed her preference for Ms. Harris over Mr. Trump during an appearance on Bill Maher's HBO program. And when she interviewed Mr. Biden in May 2023, Ms. Ruhle did not press him after his stumbling answers and praised him throughout the 14-minute discussion.


So it went with Ms. Harris. Ms. Ruhle joined Ms. Harris in attacking Mr. Trump ("His plan is not serious, when you lay it out like that") and avoided posing tricky questions about positions Ms. Harris supported during her 2020 presidential campaign or what, if anything, she knew about Mr. Biden's physical condition or mental acuity as his own campaign deteriorated.

Which is perhaps why Ms. Harris agreed to the interview in the first place.

Megyn Kelly was unimpressed by the leftwing propandist as well.

Here's some good news: the low-IQ ditzy dickrider learned a new Adult Word which she is saying every five seconds, like a child might. This word is "holistically." Like "opportunity economy," Hoorish obviously does not know what it means, either.

Other nonsense filler words she repeated throughout this fake interview: "ambitions," "aspirations," and "dreams." Worth the watch.


This is the Obama empty emotional campaign -- "I am a blank screen you can project your desires on" -- run amok.

Below, she avoids answering whether or not she'll impose price controls.
