Kamala Harris is Sit Down With Fox News' Bret Baier

Good OPs provide links.

I hope Pete preps her for this!

I was raised by a single mother. She worked hard to save up to buy a house.

Yawn.

Sorry, but there's already a thread on this with a good OP.

At least it’s not Jessie Watters. We don’t want Momala to get violent but it would be completely understandable.

IMO she should stay away from this kind of stuff. There is nothing to be gained. Right now she has three weeks left. Three weeks. That time is better spent on GOTV operations. This needs to be a tightly focused time. Mobilize your base. The time for "selling" and recruiting is over. Now is the time for full mobilization. Secondly, the whole notion of specifically targeting Black men by Kamala personally is misguided. Others need t o do that. I loved her statement about earning people's support, but that is really all she needs to do. A couple of radio or podcast interviews is enough. For the entirety of this campaign cycle, she has effectively avoided identity politics, the whole woman thing or the Race thing. Others have pointed it out but she has been all about policy and about exposing Trump. That's been a winning strategy and she should not deviate from it this late in the game.

They’re trying to peel away the tiny percentage of Republican voters who still have a slight trace of a mind and a soul, who may find voting for Trump too revolting.

I think it’s a fools errand but I think it can’t hurt. If she gets ambushed they can always say it was a fox “news” hatchet job.

R6 yes, but it also will give the bad guys sound bites to distort. And it gives ammo to all the fuckers in the Media who still find fault with every single answer she gives about the economy, about Biden, About immigration, etc. The motto is "do no harm" and IMO she really doesn't need the exposure. I have worked on many Presidential and statewide campaigns. Politics is war. And there are phases or stages if you will, in terms of things that need to be accomplished. The people who encouraged her to do this whether it was her idea or theirs, probably told her the same things you did. If she'd done it after her debate with Trump I could see it. But October is never a month to get innovative....unless you're losing. And she is not losing.

Will this be live or edited like the CBS interview?

She’s showing that she’s not a pussy like Dump. I think it’s the right move.

She got very, very, very lucky in the debate with trump. He was his usual lunatic self and the moderators did a great job fact checking his lies. Had it been any of the previous moderators we've had during the past 2 election debates, she wouldn't have done so well.

She's an idiot for even just thinking about doing this. No matter how it goes, fox is going to distort it for commercials and the media will show the clip over and over.

She was a useless vice president. What did she actually accomplish? What does she plan on telling Brett Baier about the border? Bill Clinton admitted today at a stop that Biden's disgusting border fuck up probably caused the death of a college student in Georgia.

And what does Harris plan on saying about that?

Back to the blocked list you go, r10. I literally just cleared out my blocked list, all the while telling myself it was a mistake. Well, it was.

[quote] She was a useless vice president.

This is indeed a highly unusual circumstance. Thanks you for pointing it out. This is helpful.

R10, funny how the same remark can be interpreted by the different agenda of the media.

[quote]Former President Bill Clinton suggested Monday that a nursing student’s murder would not have happened it her alleged killer had been vetted. Clinton, who was campaigning for Vice President Kamala Harris Monday in Georgia, was talking about the murder of Laken Riley, who was allegedly killed by an illegal immigrant from Venezuela.

[quote]According to Fox News, Clinton blamed former President Donald Trump of stopping negotiations regarding a bipartisan border compromise in Congress. Clinton said Trump did this to make it a campaign issue.

Other side...

[quote]Bubba was supposedly stumping for Kamala Harris, trying to defend her horrific record as border czar, when he accidentally told the truth.

[quote]Clinton tried to shift blame to Donald Trump, who he claimed is responsible for killing that “bipartisan border bill” that Democrats insist would’ve fixed everything.

[quote]Oops: Ibarra was set free in 2022 (when Democrats controlled Congress), while that bill didn’t even surface until this year.

[quote] Right now she has three weeks left. Three weeks. That time is better spent on GOTV operations.

You think she should handle GOTV herself? I don’t think that's how it works

I'll be curious how you'll feel when she doesn't flop like you're predicting, r10.

Which sock puppet is this, r10?

I've had r10 blocked for a while

She’s braver than Hilary. Going toe to toe with the dirty-playin enemy.

She will actually talk to those at Fox who are or lean GOP? This is Shocking. Brave Inspiring Unheard Of.

DL finds it hard to believe her courage in talking to potential voters. DL worries and frets.

Too bad most people have already voted.

For 2022 yes. For 2024 not so much.

R21

Risky idea. Fox blows, very infriendly.

*unfriendly

If you want to be the president of the United States and you are afraid to explain yourself to all the voters during your campaign you have no fucking business being president of the United States.

Unfriendly? Only cowards like trump (and evidently much of DL) would pass on this opportunity.

I've got ptsd from Biden's debate. Another think I have to hold my breath for.

She probably decided if she's going to lose narrowly she'd rather do it having made every attempt to win. Hillary will hear until the end of time that she should have gone to Pennsylvania. Kamala doesn't want to go down as handing over the country to Trump because she wouldn't do media interviews.

DL Dems afraid their choice for president is weak and stupid and can’t deal with Fox News and that Fox news will make a fool out of her.

“Stay with MSNBC they scream while clutching their purses”

If it pisses off Trump (like it is) it must be good.

[quote]Hillary will hear until the end of time that she should have gone to Pennsylvania.

She should have gone to Michigan and Wisconsin, in addition to Pennsylvania. But, she didn't so she lost, and unleashed holy hell on the country. But, I'll bet those great dinners with NY and California millionaires tasted good.

Clinton’s strategy was arguably a mistake. No one can know if she would have won had she done things differently.

R28. No one is afraid she’s stupid. Fox not a true news network and can make anyone look bad. That is the concern. Of course, you knew that already.

Bret Bauer the author of that annoying paean to Eisenhower?

I wouldn't trust him as far as I could throw him. Didn't he do strange mental gymnastics to claim Eisenhower's warning about the military-industrial complex didn't mean what you think it means?

I can smell R10’s nappy pussy.

R15 stop being deliberately obtuse. The campaign ought to focus on GOTV. That means she does visits to local businesses for photo ops, she does appearances in swing state counties that are in play, etc. she may meet with specific constituencies, or do some visit with a granny or a child who is in some special circumstances. It means she does not channel Princess Diana walking into a minefield.

[quote] For 2022 yes. For 2024 not so much.

No, for 2024. They released the data. Most votes are in.

R36, really? You do realize she can do both. And Princess Diana walking in a minefield did more for that issue than 100 people who weren’t Princess Diana.

She is purposefully showing that she is the anti-Dump. Fearless. Working for ALL Americans. Willing to face anyone down.

R32 is the interview going out live? If so my bet is on Harris doing great. And for the first time she can speak directly to Donald’s voters and potential voters.

DL many of them may have no balls but Harris has giant ones. She is going to do great and she will do it where it fucking counts..

You can’t be scared shitless about everything in life as so many here seem to be and think you are going to wage the good fight.

[quote]That time is better spent on GOTV operations. This needs to be a tightly focused time. Mobilize your base. The time for "selling" and recruiting is over.

[quote]But October is never a month to get innovative....

I'm glad someone came along and mentioned Hillary, because this is exactly what Hillary was accused of [italic]not[/italic] doing that supposedly cost her the election.

Further, the Democrats have a well-run GOTV machine in place. We have more field offices, more paid staff, more volunteers (by a huge factor), and a more coordinated effort spread among multiple Democratic groups than the Republikkkan counterparts.

Democrats are motivated, dedicated and either already voting or working to mobilize other Democrats. That Kamala made a direct appeal to Black men, notably after Obama's dressing down, is a good thing. Black men need to wake the fuck up and realize that Trump will do to them exactly what he did to them last time... and I guess we can sum that up by asking what George Floyd, Ahmaud Arbery, Stephon Clark, and/or Breonna Taylor would have to say about it. But we can't because they're dead, killed by the cops to whom Shitler wants to grant immunity. Worse, even Black Republikkkans are on the record wanting to bring back slavery.

But it's rich to suggest that giving a television interview is somehow getting [italic]innovative[/italic] after deriding her for not giving any interviews since she became the nominee. Can't have it both ways, MAGAt.

Baier is already receiving threats from furious MAGATS.

I Am no MAGAt. We have differing views , and mine is based on my own experience of campaigns. But yes, the Dems have an outstanding GOTV operation. And appealing directly to Black men was effective. It also supports those GOTV efforts. All I am saying is that everything Harris is doing needs to support the GOTV operations. Like appealing directly to Black men. Maybe I find appearing on Fox triggering. The only guy who seems to handle them is Pete who does a great job.

Those who are threatening him should be arrested, imprisoned for mandatory ten years, and have their mug shots blasted on the national news, every night.

Shame the domestic terrorists. Let every American know their names and faces.

[quote] She should have gone to Michigan and Wisconsin, in addition to Pennsylvania. But, she didn't so she lost, and unleashed holy hell on the country

I don't blame her for stupid people voting or not voting stupidly. I can judge and vote for what's in my best interest without being pandered to.

who's watching? I hate to give them ratings.

R45, you can’t give them ratings.

I finally watched clips on MeidasTouch and I thought she did great! Is there a thread around here I can't find?

Whew I sweated that out.

She did really well. I knew she would, but she exceeded expectations

R30 Her „basket of deplorables“ lost her the election and divided the country every since. She was genuinely bad for the US, in every respect. She gave us Trump, too.

"Experts" thought she did poorly. Hilarious. The media couldn't be more biased.

She held her own and showed she had some balls. And she certainly did not lose any votes. She may have done herself a few more votes good.

It was funny to see how many alleged Harris supporters were so sure she could not hold her own and Fox would chew her up and make her look stupid.

I was worried about her doing this, but now I am repentant. She was wonderful. She had an agenda: to go into the Liars' Den and confront them. Go right into their house and show t hem the filth they're peddling. She was in prosecutor mode and I love her for it. She was fearless and she weaponized the facts, made them look like assholes. and true to form he talked over her and he interrupted her and made himself look like a bigger horses ass than he already was. They are so predictable it gets tiresome, and she was totally ready for them.

She's fucking fearless.

Making weak pathetic men cry and frightening incel bros. I love it!

R54 just because so many DL men were crying and pleading the other day for her not to go on Fox that is not what makes them pathetic or incels.

[quote]She is tough and fearless

Trump is fluff and tearless.

Kamala was dominant in that Fox interview. Amazing.

It's pathetic that Fox played the wrong clip, pretending that Trump didn't claim to want to turn our military against fellow Americans

Bret Bauer was among those begging for FoxNews analysts to take back the call in 2020 that Biden had won in Arizona--a news anchor being so partisan it was ridiculous.

What did Fox News do as a result? It fired all the analysts that correctly made the Arizona call and kept Bauer and everyone else who would suck on Trump's balls.

Did Brett and Matt Gaetz split a 2 for 1 deal on cheap Turkish facelifts?

Bret resembles his Orange Overlord - evil, beady porcine eyes sunk into a bloated face. Ugly as homemade sin.

"What have they done to his eyes?!"

[quote]"If they watched the interview, they saw a woman whose policies they might not love but who has command of the issues, handles pressure with ease and is nobody’s pushover. Those voters saw a viable alternative to four more years of Trump and his insanity," Robinson concluded. "Some might think Baier was properly adversarial, others might think he was obnoxiously rude. Either way, the Harris campaign ought to send him flowers."

He was obnoxiously rude. Because he's trying to save Trump. WHY?

You have to ask?

When Bret asked how many migrants have crossed the border since Biden was in office, she didn't answer. Rambled on with usual talking points. He tried to interrupt to get question answered, she kept talking. Here's my question. How will she do when Putin and other world leaders want direct answers?

Putin will demand a direct answer? :-)

Who knew?

Holy shit that Putin plays hard ball if so. But Harris can in turn stick the 7th fleet up Putin’s ass or she can rub his back and cuddle like the Donald would do.

Either way she is the best we have. The best.

The president of the United States is under not obligation to give "direct answers" to any foreign power, certainly not a murderous tyrant who is known for his mendacity and duplicity.

And any pol running for office that thinks it’s in their interest to directly and honestly answer every question thrown at them by a talking head a hostile talking head is beyond stupid and totally untrained.

Why should Kamala get the best resources the White House has to offer to answer a trick question from an asshole like Brett Baier who's only task was to show the MAGAs who threaten him, and his audiences, how tough and vicious he could be to this Black woman, who, in spite of being our VP, did not seem to generate any impulse of respect from him. He was totally disrespectful and nasty and totally insincere. Transparent. And now they're all pissed off because she was ready for them. She had no expectation that they would try to be honest brokers. She expected their shit. And that's what they brought. Fox is gonna Fox.

If Putin asks for information about the US, I hope to God she doesn’t give a direct answer.

Yikes

Wrong. Boris. Try using an American keyboard to type next time.

Kamala is great at turning bullet points into a speech, but she better we wearing Depends when foreign presidents confront her. She may be the best we have, but her best isn't good enough against world leaders, many who have no respect for women.

R72, you must be off your meds. Either that or you think it's 1960 again? Kamala is plenty tough enough.

Yeah, r72. Get real. And she's running against someone who is an international joke, and who sent his his shoe designer daughter to world leader summits as his representative. We're good with Kamala.

Thatcher and Merkel were respected by world leaders.

Golda Meir and Indira Gandhi.

R76, Angela Merkel. Margaret Thatcher. (She was a terrible person, but still...)
