  1. Trump world is reeling from this disaster last night. They thought she would sheepishly submit and get bulldozed, but she came out swinging and turned the tables quickly.

  2. Turns out crazy concepts like: pointing out Trump literally said he would use the military on U.S. citizens is damaging. Who woulda thought?

  3. Didn’t watch the interview, but I keep hearing he was acting completely unprofessional towards her.

  4. > It’s 106 miles to Chicago, we got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it’s dark… and we’re wearing sunglasses. We are on a mission from God.

    Go Kamala, nice job!!

    And she did it on Fox News to people who would, under regular circumstances, be Trump voters. But like Pete Buttigieg has explained on why he appears on Fox, “you never know who else is in the room.” There were people watching that interview who may not like Trump but were voting for him because they have only heard the caricature of Harris that the network presents. They are now having doubts about that choice… and in an election where some states may be decided by a couple thousand votes, that can be the difference between winning and losing.

  6. This kind of interview was also harmful to Fox. She mentioned things their viewers have likely never heard.

    If they did even the most cursory digging, they might find they’ve been lied to.

    I’m betting in the other sub they’re saying she got creamed.

    Too predictable, those nuts.

  8. She was on a mission – like no duh, man. She’s vying for the presidency of the most powerful country in the world. Did he think she was expecting to compare knitting patterns and swap village gossip?

    A fair amount of us are on a mission to rid the country of a convicted felon / traitor who is always for sale to the highest bidder. Baier was disrespectful imo. Continually interrupting Kamala when she said something he didn’t like. The best part was when he showed the edited version of dump’s interview to omit when dump called Americans the “enemy within” and Kamala was on it! LOL Did Baier think she wouldn’t do her homework?

    Fox, dump, magats, billionaires, can all go to hell.

  10. She us literally the VP of the USA. It is a PRIVILEGE to be able to interview her. Probably one of the highest points of Brett’s career. Do these Trumpers really believe some fake news anchor is going to run rough shod over her? No. Kamala is a former criminal prosecuter. She ate hardened criminals for breakfast. Brett is like an annoying gnat to her. 

    MAGA is delusional.

    She penetrated the Iron Wig defense system. I was nervous about that interview but it turned out to be a fun watch. He looked like an ass and she looked sharp, including catching FOX in a dishonest edit. Bravo, Madame President!

    Getting ahead of myself at the end there but I’m confident it’s coming. 

    Obligatory: Vote!

  12. Interesting that “Kamala doing damage” is literally just “quoting things donOld has said at public events and interviews”

  13. An utter master class on going into the lions den and coming out with the king of the jungle hide on your shoulders. Don’t get me wrong, I doubt she did any damage to the minds of the roughly 35% of this country that is hardcore maga. But that 10% that falls more towards the middle, she definitely kicked open the door to them. Best of all, you can tell Baier during the interview knew it, and given the damage control immediately after with Laura Ingraham then Sean Hannity, and into this morning by Trump campaign, they all know she stuck the landing.

  14. If your honest with yourself and capable of thinking rationally, it’s impossible to support Trump. Trump’s support is emotional, and mostly the negative ones.

    Did the idiots at Fox not realize that Harris was a prosecutor? I know in Fox World, women are bad and submissive, but that’s just not gonna fly with a former prosecutor. Harris is proving that women can be strong leaders and doing it easily when compared to Donnie who can’t be bothered to do an interview outside of his safe space.

  16. She is trying to steer this country away from a Christo-Fascist state. Of course she’s on a mission, dummy.

    Guy at work this morning told me Harris got her ass handed to her by Baier and Fox. When I told him that even Fox said she did well, he said, “Well she did fine until the end when she got mad and her handlers ended the interview.”

  18. I haven’t seen this much damage done to a pundit pretending to be an interviewer, since Jon Stewart was on Crossfire at CNN.

  19. The fact that the most shared clip of the interview was her takedown of Baier’s selective editing of Trump’s enemy within crap is all you need to know. Nobody is talking about the back and forth on the border. It’s Fox’s deliberate attempt to hide Trump’s rhetoric from its viewers and Harris calling them out on it that everyone is talking about.

    The comment about using the military against Americans is literally fascism. We all need to repeat what he plans to do.

    Fox News viewers apparently all over the downvotes today 😂

    They can’t handle it.

    WE DONT HAVE TO IMAGINE Trump in a tough interview. He’s done them and failed so many times! Did we forget about him questioning whether Kamala was black at the society of black journalists like a month ago? And then faking an emergency to run off stage? Did we forget that just days ago he abandoned his own rigged town hall so he could dance for 40 minutes? The evidence that he is fundamentally unfit and unprepared has been demonstrated.

    This is a consistent problem with Trump coverage. Every time he does something outrageous the media just forgets it ever happened and the threat of Trump becomes hypothetical again at the beginning of every news cycle.

    CaN yOu ImAgInE TrUmP TryInG tO…

    I. DONT. HAVE. TO.

  23. I follow conservative subs to watch them. It’s weird. I watch say a trump interview and I see a rambling dumpster fire. They claim he did amazing. Watch an hostile interviewer interview Harris and she does good, but they claim dumpster fire. It’s weird.

  24. This last week ive seen the Kamala I’ve been saying we’ve needed this campaign. 

    She’s been losing steam these past few weeks due to her being busy with the hurricane relief but she’s stepped it up in a major way with these interviews and speeches. 

    My favorite line from her was when she was being interviewed on the radio and she was asked to explain why she sounded so scripted and she replied “that’s called discipline”. That’s what we need in these final weeks.
