Kamala finally answers a few questions from the media and it doesn’t go well

August 19, 2024 | | Print Article

Kamala Harris finally took questions from the media and showed why it’s so important for Democrats to keep their nominee in carefully controlled environments.

Despite the propaganda campaign to portray the vice president as a rock star-like figure with a mastery of policy and the savior of democracy, the reality is that she’s still the same loopy national embarrassment that she has been since being selected by Joe Biden as his running mate based on reasons other than competence.

When ambushed by reporters in Moon Township, PA where she was campaigning on Sunday, Harris served up one of her incomprehensible word salads sprinkled with non-answers when asked for specifics about aspects of her economic plan.

The soon-to-be-coronated nominee seemed to be caught off guard when confronted as she was getting off a bus and forced to fend for herself without a teleprompter for several minutes during which she ad-libbed while looking like a deer caught in the headlights.

“It’s almost done, I mean, I’m there’s some little tweaks that I’m gonna um, you know work on it probably starting tomorrow for the next couple days but it’s coming along, I feel good about it,” she responded.

“Actually it’s much of what you’ve probably heard me talk about before in terms of just what I believe to be the promise of America and the fact that we’re all in this and um there’s obviously a lot at stake but there’s also a lot to feel good about in terms of the future our country. So there will be a lot that is about what I believe is a way forward, a new way forward, and bringing everyone along in that.”

The veep failed to articulate a coherent answer about her proposed tax credits and how they’ll be paid for, repeating the term “return on investment” several times before being asked about her poll numbers, finishing off with the elusive ceasefire in Gaza which is desperately needed to placate the rabidly anti-Semitic elements of the Democrat base.

The look on the face of her running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, spoke volumes about the potential for disaster whenever she doesn’t have a teleprompter.

X users reacted to the unscripted version of Harris, a walking, talking dumpster fire who her handlers have to keep from going off-script for nearly three months if there is any hope of keeping the White House under Democrat control.

Harris will accept her party’s nomination in a nationally televised speech from Chicago on Thursday night in which she’ll stick to the teleprompter and let her cheerleaders in the media do the rest.
