'Kamala Harris First Solo Interview with Local Pennsylvania Reporter
Turns into Disaster'

'Vice President Kamala Harris, during her second interview on Friday
since joining the race, undermined her record in the Biden-Harris
administration by stating the administration’s policies are not fit for
the “twenty-first century.”

Harris faces a conundrum: She cannot campaign on policies to fix crime,
inflation, and border security without undermining the Biden-Harris
administration’s policies, but she must tout the administration’s
policies to validate her record and candidacy.

Speaking with Brian Taff of Philadelphia’s Action News 6 ABC, as the
Harris campaign promised she would Thursday after she was slammed for
failing to answer questions during Tuesday’s debate, Harris suggested
she has a fresh “approach” with “new ideas” for the “current moment.”
“I wonder if there are one or two spots, policy areas or approaches
where you would say I’m a different person [than Joe Biden]?” asked
Taff.

“My approach is about new ideas, new policies that are directed at the
current moment. And also, to be very honest with you, my focus is very
much in what we need to do over the next ten twenty years to catch up to
the twenty first century,” Harris replied.

“I’m obviously not Joe Biden, and you know, I offer a new generation of
leadership,” she said, providing examples that the Biden-Harris
administration failed to achieve, such as helping citizens achieve the
American dream:

And so, for example, thinking about developing and creating an
opportunity economy where it’s about investing in areas that really need
a lot of work, and maybe focusing on again, the aspirations and the
dreams, but also just recognizing that at this moment in time, some of
the stuff we could take for granted years ago, we can’t take for granted
anymore. For example, another plan that I have that is a new approach is
to expand the child tax credit to $6,000 for young families for the
first year of their child’s life, because that is obviously a very
critical stage of development of a child, and a lot of young parents
need the help to buy a car seat or a crib or clothes for their kids.

Taff also asked Harris how she would go about bringing “down prices and
making life more affordable for people.”

Harris responded with the same rehearsed answer she used in the debate.
“I grew up a middle class kid,” Harris replied, again ignoring the
question. As Breitbart News reported, Harris’s claim is “mostly false.”
Harris grew up with an affluent Canadian upbringing, growing up in
Westmount.

When asked what she understands former President Donald Trump’s “appeal
to be and how do you speak to his voters [about it],” Harris delivered a
word salad and did not answer the question directly.
“I, based on experience and and a lived experience, know in my heart, I
know in my soul, I know that the vast majority of us as Americans have
so much more in common than what separates us,” she rambled. “And I also
believe that I am accurate in knowing that most Americans want a leader
who brings us together as Americans, and not someone who professes to be
a leader who is trying to have us point our fingers at each other.”

“Let’s bring everybody together,” she said.

Harris lastly said she wants to ban guns. “I feel very strongly that it
is consistent with the second amendment and your right to own a gun to
say that we need an assault weapons ban,” she said. “They’re literally
tools of war.”

“We’re not taking anybody’s guns away,” she added in the same breath.
