Unfortunately for these and most other left-wing commentators, there’s a transcript available. Instead of concentrating on Harris’s answers, HotAir’s Ed Morrissey decided to examine every single question Baier asked Harris during the 25-minute interview.
Let’s just say that this Kamala narrative doesn’t at all fit the facts!
Critics of Baier need to look at this list and find the questions that are not appropriate to ask a presidential candidate, especially an incumbent in the current White House for the last three-plus years. Every single question here relates to either Harris’ publicly stated positions over the past five years, the policies and performance of the Biden-Harris White House, and what she would do if elected president. There isn’t a personal-scandal or gotcha question in this; every single question — and that includes the question of Biden’s cognitive decline, which is the reason Harris is the nominee — is substantive and fair.
… Baier’s critics aren’t operating out of principle by casting him as a hack. They’re reacting out of desperation from having seen that Harris can’t answer even basic questions about what she believes or why people should support her.
