60 Minutes Presses Kamala With Some REAL Questions, It Didn't Go Well for Her [WATCH]

Matt Margolis-Opinion : Oct 8, 2024  PJ Media

"You know, when you talk quietly with a lot of folks in Congress, they know exactly what I'm talking about, 'cause their constituents know exactly what I'm talking about. Their constituents are those firefighters and teachers and nurses. Their constituents are middle-class, hard-working folk." -Kamala Harris

[PJMedia.com] After weeks of dodging the media, the Harris-Walz campaign finally shifted gears and began sending Kamala Harris out for interviews. Of course, these were carefully staged appearances on networks that favor her with interviewers who do the same—but hey, they were interviews, right? I suppose that was the idea behind the strategy: undercut the narrative that she's too afraid of unscripted moments by letting her biggest cheerleaders handle the interviewing. From Stephanie Ruhle on MSNBC to her appearance on the "Call Her Daddy" podcast, Kamala is looking for the softest of softball interviews and still striking out.

Except none of the interviews have gone very well, and her "60 Minutes" interview on CBS News may have been her worst yet.

No matter how much she tries to run towards vibes and away from substance, Harris winds up facing substantive questions, and she repeatedly proves she has no idea how to answer them.

In one exchange, she refused to call Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu an ally.

Bill Whitaker pointed out that the US supplies Israel with billions in military aid, yet Netanyahu seems to be making decisions independently, such as resisting calls for a ceasefire and entering Lebanon despite US warnings. Harris responded with a word salad. "The work that we do diplomatically with the leadership of Israel is an ongoing pursuit around making clear our principles," she said.

"But it seems that Prime Minister Netanyahu is not listening," Whitaker pointed out.

Queue the next word salad: "We are not gonna stop pursuing what is necessary for the United States to be clear about where we stand on the need for this war to end."

Whitaker then asked her point blank: "Do we have a real close ally in Prime Minister Netanyahu?"

"I think, with all due respect, the better question is do we have an important alliance between the American people and the Israeli people," Kamala replied. "And the answer to that question is yes."

Whitaker also repeatedly pressed Kamala about how she plans to pay for her economic proposals. As you would expect, her responses were vague and lacked substance. Whitaker pointed out that her plan is estimated to add $3 trillion to the deficit and asked her how it would be funded. She went with the usual Democrat response that the rich need to pay their fair share of taxes. But Whitaker challenged her on that point. (Screengrab image: via 60 Minutes-CBS)

"But we're dealing with the real world here," he said.

Harris began, "But the real world includes—" but Whitaker didn't let her filibuster the question.

"How are you gonna get this through Congress?"

"You know, when you talk quietly with a lot of folks in Congress, they know exactly what I'm talking about, 'cause their constituents know exactly what I'm talking about," she claimed. "Their constituents are those firefighters and teachers and nurses. Their constituents are middle-class, hard-working folk."

Whitaker didn't buy that. "And Congress has shown no inclination to move in your direction."

But, the worst part of the interview may have been her response to being called out on her flip-flopping... Subscribe for free to Breaking Christian News here
