The roughly half-hour interview with the conservative American broadcaster took a relatively aggressive tone, with moderator Bret Baier and Democrat Kamala Harris repeatedly interrupting each other.
In the first televised interview of the conservative channel “Fox News” with the US presidential candidate, Kamala Harris had a heated exchange with the moderator Bret Baier, which lasted about 30 minutes, which had the nature of a fight 59-year-old Donald Trump, Harris takes responsibility for the issue of immigration. During his losing campaign on this topic, the Democrat visited the US border with Mexico to learn about the situation there.
“Can I finish answering?” When Harris repeatedly asked, Bayer interrupted her during the interview. The American people are right to want to debate immigration before the election. But what people don’t like are the “political games,” Harris said, referring to Trump. The Democratic Party floundered and tried to counter it.
For example, Bayer asked Harris if he should apologize to the families of women killed by immigrants. “First of all, let me say these are tragic cases. There’s no doubt about that,” responded Vice President Harris. The US immigration system has been broken for too long. Congress has a responsibility to fix it, and accused Republicans and Trump of blocking solutions.
Trump spent millions to “create fear”.
Bayer led the conversation on the topic of gender reassignment surgery and transgender rights, which conservatives have repeatedly politicized. The appraiser asked the US vice president if taxpayer money should be used for this. Harris responded that Trump is spending millions of dollars on ads, “to create a sense of fear among voters, and he really has no plan in this election to focus on the needs of the American people.”
Harris has been repeatedly accused of government wrongdoing during the campaign, including several times in an interview with “Fox News.” “When did you notice that President (Joe) Biden’s mental faculties had diminished?” Beyer asked. Harris paused and answered: She met with Biden at least once a week for three and a half years, and she had no concerns.
The Democrat tried to steer the conversation to his opponent, Trump: The American people care about the former president, Harris said. Those who knew him best — even his former White House aides — considered the Republican “inappropriate and dangerous” and said he “should never be president of the United States again.”
There is no continuity of Biden’s policies
When asked what differentiates her from Biden, Harris deliberately distanced herself: “Like every new person in office I make it clear that my presidency will not be a continuation of Joe Biden.” Their professional experience and “fresh, new ideas”. He also represents a new generation.
Trump’s campaign called the interview a fiasco and described Harris as “angry and defensive.” Trump, who is the primary moderator for politics at “Fox News,” accused Trump of not attacking the left on his online platform before the interview aired, telling Truth Social: “I wanted to hear a journalist be more persistent, but Fox has become so weak and soft on Democrats.” After the interview, a “Fox News” commentator called Bayer a “win” for the interview (APA/dpa/Ed.)
