Kamala Harris did an interview with Howard Stern on Tuesday.
Once upon a time, Howard Stern was anti-establishment and funny. But now he’s all in with the powers that be and that’s a sad comment on him. Then, too, he’s always had issues with taste and saying things that were offensive, including to women. Yet that didn’t seem to stop Kamala Harris from going on his show.
Harris went on “The View” earlier, and that was a disaster, with her admitting she wouldn’t do anything different from Joe Biden.
Stern made it clear he supported her and wasn’t even going to begin to be objective. It wasn’t an interview; it was an effort to help her. I spoke about Jimmy Kimmel’s “interview” of Tim Walz being a sycophantic slobberfest. This interview was even worse.
Howard’s first question was ridiculous: Did she nap? He explained he was disturbed that SNL made fun of her on Saturday. He didn’t want that because there was “too much at stake.” He said he wanted this to go “well for her.”
The second question was Howard asking if she liked the Prince soundtrack for the first Michael Keaton “Batman” movie that came out 35 years ago, according to journalist Joe Concha. Really getting to the heart of the election issues.
But that’s about how it continued, with Howard spewing vitriol at Trump and Trump supporters. He filled in most of the time, ranting, saying things like he doesn’t understand “how this election is close.” He asked Harris if she would leave the country if Trump won. He was just completely whacked out.
Stern bizarrely claimed Harris was the “law and order candidate.”
Um, this is the same woman who allowed a record number of people to enter our country illegally. This is a woman who promoted a bail fund for people arrested during the BLM riots in Minnesota. This is a woman who has chanted “Down, down with deportation” and has attacked ICE.
Hey, at least Howard did ask the important McDonald’s question, and even with a guy bending over to help her, she couldn’t make it sound any more true this time, either. This time, she even said that “Dougie” had worked at McDonald’s and had been “employee of the month.” Then she said more about “doing fries.”
Again she offered no proof, and people who actually have worked at McDonald’s said that isn’t how it works. So she didn’t convince anyone.
But perhaps the most incredible thing that she said was when she called President Donald Trump “weak.”
“I can be much more articulate than what I am going to say,” Harris said.
“Ultimately I do believe that this is an election that is about strength versus weakness. And weakness as projected by someone who puts himself in front of the American people and does not have the strength to stand — in defense of their needs, their dreams and their desires. The work that must happen to make sure we are a secure nation, that we are nurturing and protecting our alliances around the world, that we are supporting America’s military, that we are fighting to bring the costs of living down for American families.”
She’s ducked interviews until recently, she still refuses to answer a lot of questions about what she will do, and hasn’t gone on anything but friendly outlets. She’s failed at everything she’s supposed to have done for the past four years. So imagine her talking about anyone else’s weakness when she’s the epitome of weakness.
Moreover, how dare she talk about Trump? The guy who took a bullet and then had the strength to stand, even in the face of that, with blood streaming down his face, fist pumping, saying, “Fight, fight, fight!” because his first thought was to let the people who would be concerned know he was okay, so they wouldn’t worry. He stood even in the face of gunfire. That’s strength. That’s courage that Kamala will never know or understand. And what’s amazing is that the audience, largely, were transfixed, not running, but fixed on his safety as well. That was courage, too.
Trump even went back to the place of the attempt on his life to finish the rally that people wanted to see. He honored his supporters who had been hurt and Corey Comperatore, who had been killed. He spoke about how important it was to win to defend the rights of the American people.
Harris has done nothing to make us a “secure nation” — she’s done the opposite. She just threw Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu under the bus, refusing to even call him an ally. So much for alliances. And the rise in prices is directly related to her voting to pass legislation that helped to make inflation worse.
Harris is literally everything she is complaining about, and that’s why we need to “turn the page” from her.
