CNN interviewer a joke, but Kamala remains undisputed word salad queen

August 30, 2024 | | Print Article

Vice President Kamala Harris has demonstrated that she’s still the undisputed leftist word salad queen of the West.

During her first sit-down interview since being nominated as the Democrat Party’s presidential pick, Harris rambled off lengthy word salad answers when pressed on her political views.

The word salads started from the very beginning, when left-wing interviewer Dana Bash of CNN asked her why she’s flip-flopped on virtually all of her policy positions, including on the Green New Deal.

The crazy thing about it is that Bash tried to hand Harris some easy answers by asking a leading question.

“Generally speaking, how should voters look at some of the changes that you’ve made?” she said. “Is it because you have more experience now, and you’ve learned more about the information? Is it because you were running for president in a Democratic primary? And should they feel comfortable and confident that what you’re saying now is going to be your policy moving forward?”

Harris’ word salad answer was quite telling.

“Dana, I think the most important and most significant aspect of my policy perspective and decisions is my values have not changed,” she began, suggesting that her core positions do in fact remain the same.

“You mentioned the Green New Deal. I have always believed and I have worked on it, that the climate crisis is real, that it is an urgent matter to which we should apply metrics that include holding ourselves to deadlines around time,” she added in a helluva word salad.

“We did that with the Inflation Reduction Act. We have set goals for the United States of America and by extension the globe around when we should meet certain standards for reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, as an example. That value has not changed,” she continued.

Harris campaign official Brian Fallon later tried to clarify/backtrack on her “values haven’t changed” remarks by claiming she’d said something that she hadn’t.

The public responded to her word salad by expressing shock over Harris fumbling the ball despite Bash having tried so diligently to guide her toward a reasonable, coherent answer.

During the CNN interview, Harris also claimed she’s for a strong border, despite presiding alongside President Joe Biden over the most porous borders in American history.

“I believe there should be consequences [for illegally crossing the border],” she said. “We have laws that have to be followed and enforced that address and deal with people who cross our border illegally. And there should be consequences.”

“And let’s be clear, in this race, I’m the only person who has prosecuted transnational criminal organizations who traffic in guns, drugs, and human beings. I’m the only person in this race who actually served a border state as attorney general to enforce our laws. And I would enforce our laws as president going forward. I recognize the problem,” she added.

Her 2024 presidential election opponent, former President Donald Trump, didn’t buy her rhetoric for one minute.

“Now she’s saying, ‘Oh, we want to build a strong border,'” he said at a Michigan rally Thursday afternoon, according to the New York Post. “Where has she been for three and a half years?”

To answer his question, she’s been busy pretending to be the “border czar” while doing absolutely nothing to actually secure the border.
