Vice President Kamala Harris made headlines following an eventful interview with MSNBC where she displayed a disturbing lack of knowledge and absurd reactions.
On Wednesday, a report published by the New York Times criticized the interview that Kamala Harris gave to Stephanie Ruhle, a host on MSNBC.
The report stated that the Democratic presidential candidate continued to adhere to her strategy of avoiding answering questions directly.
“Since Ms. Harris began granting more interviews in recent days, her media strategy has been to sit with friendly inquisitors who are not inclined to ask terribly thorny questions or press her when her responses are evasive,” the New York Times’Â report on the “takeaways” from Harris’ interview read.
One Reporter’s Take
Just days after Ruhle defended the vice president against accusations that she was avoiding questions and policy details during her interviews, Harris sat down for her first solo interview with a major network on Wednesday.
“Ms. Harris responded to the fairly basic and predictable questions with roundabout responses that did not provide a substantive answer,” the report continued.
The report acknowledged Ruhle’s justification and praise of Harris during her appearance on “Real Time With Bill Maher.”
It also made note of a recent interview Ruhle did with President Biden in May 2023 and said, “Ruhle did not press him after his stumbling answers and praised him throughout the 14-minute discussion.”

The Times further reported that before the June debate, which led to Biden’s withdrawal, Ruhle neglected to ask Harris whether she had any knowledge about his health.
“Ms. Ruhle joined Ms. Harris in attacking Mr. Trump (‘His plan is not serious, when you lay it out like that’) and avoided posing tricky questions about positions Ms. Harris supported during her 2020 presidential campaign or what, if anything, she knew about Mr. Biden’s physical condition or mental acuity as his own campaign deteriorated,” the report read.
The New York Times reported that this could be “perhaps why Ms. Harris agreed to the interview in the first place.”
Ruhle challenged Harris during the interview about how she would “get the money” to pay for her expensive economic agenda if Republicans on Capitol Hill were to obstruct her attempts to increase the corporate tax rate.
Harris Response
“Do you still go forward with those plans and borrow?” Ruhle asked.
“But we’re going to have to raise corporate taxes,” Harris responded. “We’re going to have to make sure that the biggest corporations and billionaires pay their fair share. That’s just it. It’s about paying their fair share.”
During the interview on MSNBC’s “Deadline: White House,” Ruhle acknowledged that Harris “doesn’t answer the question.”
