Kamala catches Fox host in FAILED gotcha, CRUSHES Trump
In a recent interview with Fox News's Bret Baier, Kamala Harris skillfully navigated a series of "gotcha" questions designed to provoke damaging responses. One key moment came when Baier attempted to elicit a controversial comment from Harris about Trump supporters, similar to Hillary Clinton’s "basket of deplorables" remark. Harris remained composed, refusing to take the bait, and instead pointed out that it is Trump who consistently demeans Americans in his speeches, portraying them as an "enemy within." Baier also played deceptively edited clips of Trump, which Harris immediately called out, accusing him of manipulating the footage to misrepresent Trump’s rhetoric. She highlighted the danger of Trump’s divisive language, which includes threats to use military force against Americans and targeting peaceful protesters. As the interview progressed, Baier became visibly defensive, frustrated by Harris’s refusal to fall into the traps he had set. Despite criticism from Trump supporters, who tried to paint her as angry or evasive, Harris stayed focused, directly addressing every issue raised and leaving Baier on the defensive.
Fox host VISIBLY SHAKEN after failed Kamala gotcha interview
Fox News host Bret Baier appeared visibly shaken after his interview with Kamala Harris failed to unfold as he had seemingly anticipated. Throughout the exchange, Baier attempted to corner Harris with pointed questions and deceptively edited video clips, presumably aiming to provoke controversial statements, particularly about Trump supporters. However, Harris quickly caught on, calling out the misleading clips and deftly sidestepping the traps laid for her. Baier seemed to lose control of the interview as Harris remained composed, turning what could have been a challenging situation into a moment of strength for her. Following the interview, Baier voiced frustration over Harris arriving late, which caused production delays, but despite this logistical hiccup, the interview is widely seen as a misstep for Baier, whose efforts to pin down Harris fell flat while she navigated the conversation with poise and precision.
From yesterday’s show:
Trump CANNOT BE SAVED in worst interview EVER
In a recent interview at the Economic Club of Chicago, Donald Trump struggled to answer basic questions, leaving his campaign reportedly in disarray just days before the election. Trump was asked about whether Google should be broken up in relation to antitrust concerns, but instead rambled about voter rolls in Virginia, baffling the interviewer who repeatedly tried to steer him back to the original topic. At one point, Trump justified his disjointed responses by calling them a "weave," claiming he was skillfully connecting various points, though it was clear he was losing focus. The audience's laughter wasn't with him, but rather at the incoherence on display. Trump's inability to finish thoughts or stay on topic was compounded when he made unrelated comments about World War III and even diverted to a story about his opposition to an Air Force One contract signed by Barack Obama. Throughout the interview, Trump was defensive, even lashing out at the moderator when challenged about tariffs and debt. Despite the disastrous performance, some Trump supporters and media figures, like Laura Ingraham and Sean Hannity, hailed the interview as a success. Nonetheless, the display of confusion and erratic behavior has raised serious concerns about Trump's ability to handle tough questions.
From yesterday’s show:
Georgia's 1st day early voting BREAKS RECORD
In Georgia, the first day of early voting has shattered previous records, with 305,000 votes cast—about 2.5 times higher than the previous record of 136,000 set in 2020. This surge raises questions about voter enthusiasm for both candidates, particularly in this key swing state, which has three weeks of early voting. Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger advises voters to plan their voting method, whether absentee or early, given Georgia's pivotal role in the election. While narratives suggest low enthusiasm among both Republicans and Democrats—highlighted by lackluster Trump rallies and mixed feelings about Kamala Harris—the early voting turnout indicates significant engagement, especially among Democratic voters who recognize Georgia's importance. Conversely, Trump supporters, who previously discouraged early voting, have shifted their stance, urging voters to utilize any available method to cast their ballots. Polls indicate a tight race, with Trump leading by small margins in various surveys. Overall, the early voting trend reflects higher turnout and a critical moment for both parties as Election Day approaches.
