On Wednesday, Vice President Kamala Harris was engaged in an intense 27-minute interview with Fox News host Bret Baier. This is Harris’s debut appearance on the conservative network as she campaigns for the presidency.
When the Democratic candidate was asked if she would do anything differently from Biden after Baier played a clip of her saying there’s “not a thing that comes to mind” for changes, Harris made a bold statement, clearly separating herself from the current administration.
“My presidency will not be a continuation of Joe Biden’s presidency,” she stated. According to the VP, a new form of leadership is what she’s bringing to the table, and she is also willing to consider ideas from various sources, including Republicans who have endorsed her campaign and business sectors.
Confronted with polls indicating widespread dissatisfaction with the country’s direction, Kamala Harris, who is still the current Vice President, stated that this only reflected how the public are tired of both Biden and Trump’s leadership, deviating from addressing her own contribution to the decline.
In fact, she criticized the former President, citing his former officials who she claims are now describing him as “unfit to serve” and “dangerous.”
Kamala Harris also addressed Trump’s controversial “enemy within” rhetoric. She expressed concern over his suggestion of using military force against American citizens, stating, “He’s the one who talks about an enemy within… suggesting he would turn the American military on the American people.”
The interview touched on several sensitive topics, including transgender rights. Bret Baier presented a Trump campaign ad that criticized Harris’s past support for “surgical care” for transgender prisoners. However, Harris countered this attack by pointing out that such procedures were available “on a medical necessity basis” during Trump’s own administration.
After the interview was aired, Trump took to X, a social media platform, accusing Harris of having “Trump derangement syndrome” and suggesting she take a cognitive test.
“She is barely able to talk about any subject other than the man who had the best economy ever, the strongest border in history, and who just got the UNANIMOUS ENDORSEMENT OF THE U.S. Border Patrol, ME!..She is also the WORST Vice President in history, but hopefully will soon be GONE.”
In contrast, CNN reported that Pete Buttigieg, the Transportation Secretary, praised Harris’s performance as “impressive,” calling her “tough, smart, focused, and disciplined.” You can watch the full Fox News interview in the video below 👇
Bret Baier also revealed that Kamala Harris arrived 15 minutes late for their scheduled interview, which cut into their allotted time. He shared with colleague Dana Perino that steering the conversation without interrupting Harris proved challenging. Baier expressed his frustration at not being able to ask all the questions he had prepared. “I had so much to cover,” he said in a separate conversation with commentator Mark Levin.
