The fact that it's close is beyond belief and only shows that CORONATIONS don't work. 

The fact that those two are supposedly the best possible candidates for president shows that American politics don't work.

At least they don't work for the people from the people and all that.

Trump has uploaded this full interview to his own channel titled as MUST WATCH. No commentary. No Trump. Just the full unedited interview. That's fkn brilliant. LOL.

7 million watched it live, I cant wait to see the total numbers from social media. Memes are already coming like bullets lol

It would have been nice if Kamala had actually stated any policy in the interview. Instead, she mentioned Trump more than 20 times. Even when asked about Biden's mental state and when she knew he was slipping, her answer was "Trump.....". When asked how she can 'turn the page' when she is number 2 in the current administration, her answer was "Trump....". 

 

I was actually hoping to hear some policy from her. SHe had the chance to reach an audience that doesn't get to see her very much and generate some good publicity. Instead, she fell back on "let me be clear..." and "I will follow the law" and "b-b-but Trump". From the very first question about immigration when she couldn't give a simple answer to a simple question, she was evasive and shallow.

That’s the fourth withdrawal from scheduled events in less than ten days.

 

This is beyond chicken territory, it deserves an explanation. 
 

 

The explanation is that trump thinks hes winning so no need to pander anymore. Everyone knows his policies already

And the NRA would just be preaching to the converted. Not to many No Kamala Harris lovers in that lot.

Seems like you might’ve been watching a different interview, or you’ve got selective hearing. Let’s get real:

1. 'No policy'? Wrong. Harris discussed immigration (border security, root causes), healthcare (expanding access), and gun control (background checks, assault weapon bans). You missed that, huh?
    

2. 'Mentioned Trump 20 times'? Nice round number, but it’s exaggerated. She mentioned him when relevant, drawing contrasts—standard stuff. Got a timestamp for that 20-count?
    

3. 'Dodged Biden’s mental state question with "Trump"’? Total fiction. She defended Biden’s record. If she deflected, prove it—timestamp or it didn’t happen.
    

4. 'Turn the page, Trump...' Another twist. If she referenced Trump, it’s for context. Not deflection. Standard practice, but I guess that’s lost on you.
    

5. 'B-b-but Trump' caricature? Convenient. She gave specifics on policies you ignored. Easier than engaging, I suppose.
    

6. 'Immigration question, evasive'? Immigration isn’t simple. She explained it in detail. Just because it wasn’t a soundbite doesn’t make it evasive.
    

You’re either misrepresenting or making things up. Try watching again—maybe without the bias filter this time.

Can’t wait for the unedited interview to 60 minutes that showed a very agitated Trump parrying with interviewer Lesley Stahl with his lies about his greatest economy in the history of the country (lol) and encouraging attendees for his Rose Garden event to wear masks (many attendees came down with Covid) and was told point blank by Lesley Stahl that he lie.  Yes I can wait for the stupidity and lies that he spewed in the interview.

He has been on a cancellation tear, pulling out of several interviews in recent days. Better for him as has been rambling non-answers and topic change. Every time he open his mouth, he loses voters. Keep him in the basement.

1. She discussed. Didn't actually detail. 

 

2. I was wrong. She mentioned Trump 24 times. Check the transcript.

 

https://www.rev.com/blog/transcripts/kamala-harris-interview-on-fox-news

 

3. 21:30 mark in the interview. Baier asks about Biden. Harris deflects by saying that Biden is not on the ballot, then deflects again to Trump. Never answers about Biden's mental decline.

 

4. At 16:00 minutes Baier asks about "turning the page". Harris goes straight to "turn the page from Donald Trump's rhetoric". Baier says she has been in office nearly 4 years, she again deflects to Trump.

 

5. Twenty four times.

 

6. First question was "how many illegals have crossed?" She never gave a number, never answered. She deflects to the usual pablum of "we have a broken immigration system....." and ignores the follow up about why her administration immediately reversed all of Trump's executive orders on border security. 

 

Anything else?

Perhaps she was making the point that she was prepared to undergo a hostile interview - without demanding an on air apology for an imagined slight from 4 years ago.

 

She wasn't particularly snarky, he asked some very barbed questions, making it absolutely clear in asking them the answer he expected, wished, to hear. It was rather than an interview a "switch and bait session". She answered them, in a measured style and was not prepared to let him bamboozle him into loosing her temper.

 

Incidentally, I thought the remark " you are a serious journalist, you will have done your research" was very funny. Not quite up there with "Kamala Harris has a résumé, Donald Trump has a rap sheet" but still funny.

 

Will it make a difference? Well it's Fox News, interviewer and audience share the same agenda, which was followed from the start, so it won't, never was, going to change that. But they can't claim that she isn't avoiding hostile interviews.

 

Could have done with an "Ave Maria" or two and some Pavarotti - maybe she forgot to bring her IPod?

 

i very much doubt she had any choice in the matter, she was selected by Pelosi, Schumer etc, she does what she is told.

Harris did this 1 interview that was 'hostile', IE: asked questions that should be asked.  every other interview she has done has been softball or a fluffing show.

As apposed to Harris's disaster we have witnessed. Trump gained votes from this interview. As for gaining votes 

National Border Control Union Backs Trump.

An explanation:  he knows, and his advisors know, that he simply cannot cope with any interview which is not a sycophantic  platform.

 

They have anyway moved on from the election - efforts, funds and attention are focussed on denying the election, legal actions running out the various deadlines, and bamboozling and bullying Congress and particularly the Supreme Court into appointing him.

Arguably the most important and possibly the most consequential interview he has ever done, and he makes such a fundamental mistake - Ye Gods, monumental incompetence, even for a self proclaimed entertainment channel!

 

Action Man could have done better - and would have had more credible hair!

Harris has a policy to defend? Well, I'll be jiggered!

Would that be the ones she appropriated from Trump?

It seems her main defence to her incompetency and appalling record was "whatabout Trump though".

 

So much in fact that I am starting to wonder if she's a poster on this forum.

Even Al Jazeera ( openly biased against Trump ) showed up Harris by putting on an excerpt from the interview where she kept talking about Trump.

You're obviously deluded. No tax on tips was Harris'.  Not an original thought in that void between her ears. Autocue freezes and she just keeps repeating "32 days" "32 days" "32 days".  Such a pity the autocue jumped back to life. She would have been completely lost. It would have been absolute gold not that this wasn't gold enough.

What do you mean compared to what. What a silly comment. I posted the number of views Trump's website has had on the Harris Fox interview. That's all there is to it. Giving a specific number is of course something Harris couldn't do.

You said "Just under 335,000 so far on Trumps OWN channel".

 

My answer was Compared to what?

 

How about comparing it to something relevant, such as the number of viewers who saw the show live on the Fox entertainment channel, or any other comparable video?
