Harris campaign officials believe that talking about the current landscape of abortion restrictions in the United States is a winning strategy with female voters, particularly liberal and liberal-leaning ones. But Mr. Baier did not bring up the issue, and the vice president did not guide him there.

Instead, both of them stayed focused on immigration and border security — a topic that, according to recent polls, is near the top of the list of concerns among female voters.

At several points, Mr. Baier asked the vice president if the families of women killed by undocumented immigrants were owed apologies from Ms. Harris and the Biden administration. He read off their names from a list, one by one, and played a clip from the mother of one of the victims, who blamed the administration’s border policies for the loss of her daughter.

Dog shit political instincts. This is the same person who had to exit the primaries first in 2020. Can’t win an election to save her life.

It will be amazing if the Dems lose again, the fact that this is even in the cards is frankly fucking insane

    Fuck kamala I am absolutely not defending her and I’m not sure why she thought this was a good idea in the first place.

    That being said holy shit this was a dumpster fire.

    Beir would ask a question and then immediatly just talk over her and start arguing with her if she started actually responding then as soon as she started talking shit about trump he’d cut her off and move on.

    Also playing a completely unrelated clip as evidence that the clip she was actually talking about didn’t exist was pretty orwellian.

    In any country with a population of people who could be consider competent adults this would be ample evidence for stripping fox for parts.

    All of which I could have told her and her team 48 hours ago for way less than whatever hickster they actually employ for plotiical strategy.
