Kamala Harris’ pre-election media blitz did not make her look any higher – it was only a huge flop

Vice President Kamala Harris lastly sat down this week for a number of media interviews on consecutive days, a primary for her presidential marketing campaign.

But most of them weren’t interviews in any respect, however the journalistic model of a hot-stone therapeutic massage.

The veep’s first main cease was at “60 Minutes.”

Refreshingly, and for the primary time since she changed Joe Biden atop the Democratic ticket, she was really challenged with some uncomfortable questions and (gasp) even follow-ups.

But CBS correspondent Invoice Whitaker appeared flummoxed by her non-answers and phrase salads on main matters like financial coverage and unlawful immigration, whereas Harris appeared patently uncomfortable.

Solely later did we be taught CBS had extensively edited the chat to make Harris sound considerably coherent.

Hours after that prepare wreck aired, Harris went over to ABC.

And for the primary time ever, a Democrat someway screwed up a T-ball interview on “The View,” a seemingly inconceivable feat.

Her greatest whiff: Requested if she would have determined something in another way than Joe Biden did their previous 4 years in workplace, she answered with a line that may certainly develop into a Trump marketing campaign advert: “There’s not a factor that involves thoughts.”

Nope.

Harris wouldn’t alter a factor about inflation, spending, crime, the border or international coverage.

Simply 28% of People consider the nation is heading in the right direction, and the VP primarily says she’s good with the alternatives that put it there.

No regrets.

Thirty minutes later, maybe sensing she wanted a do-over, Harris shared that one distinction between Biden and herself is that she’s “going to have a Republican in my Cupboard.”

Contemplating ultra-hawk Liz Cheney is presently campaigning together with her, say howdy to your subsequent Secretary of Protection!

Then Harris sat down with Howard Stern.

Listeners of a sure age may need anticipated one thing fascinating out of this one, as a result of the no-holds-barred “shock jock” of previous would have quizzed Kamala about her husband Doug Emhoff and the racy allegations that he cheated on his first spouse, impregnated the couple’s nanny and sexually harassed ladies at his regulation agency.

However this isn’t Eighties or Nineteen Nineties Howard anymore.

As an alternative, he’s morphed into an insufferably woke Democratic activist who on Tuesday slammed “Saturday Night time Stay” for committing light mockery.

“I don’t need you being made enjoyable of,” he stated earnestly.

“There’s an excessive amount of at stake. I consider the complete way forward for this nation proper now . . . is actually on the road.”

Yep.

The man who has made a 50-year profession out of scatological ridicule desires Kamala to get a move.

No information was made on this “interview,” since you knew the place it was going based mostly on the primary query: “Do you nap in any respect?”

As a followup, Stern requested Kamala if she preferred the 1989 “Batman” soundtrack that includes Prince.

No, actually.

Lastly, Harris returned to CBS and the friendliest of venues: “Late Night time with Stephen Colbert.”

The person who carried out a tribute to the COVID vaccine and hosted a $500-a-ticket Joe Biden fundraiser centered his questions totally on Donald Trump’s private flaws and the risk he poses to the nation and democracy itself.

Colbert additionally gave Harris yet one more swing on the key query of the day.

“What makes you totally different than the present administration?” he requested.

“I’m clearly not Joe Biden,” she replied.

“I’m not Donald Trump, both.”

Glad now we have that established.

However her reply is at odds with what Biden himself stated simply final week, when he reiterated that this vice-president has been concerned in each main resolution he’s made — and harassed the 2 are “singing from the identical tune sheet.”

Which is it, Madam Vice President?

The web-net of this alleged media blitz is negligible for the Harris marketing campaign — or worse. 

She doesn’t acquire one vote from Tuesday’s whirlwind tour, as a result of those that hearken to Stern or watch Colbert and “The View” are already in her nook.

And he or she possible repelled quite a lot of voters on “60 Minutes,” which for her aides again in marketing campaign HQ will need to have been like watching the bloody first 13 minutes of “Saving Non-public Ryan.”

There’s about 4 weeks to go till Election Day.

Many People nonetheless don’t know who Kamala Harris is or what she stands for — which is why she set out on this misbegotten mission within the first place.

We all know who Donald Trump is.

However Harris is the etch-a-sketch candidate who says so very a lot with out telling us something in any respect.
