Trump picks up ‘100,000 votes’ with every time Harris bombs an interview, JD Vance says at campaign rally
Kamala Harris is serving up so much “word salad” during her rare media interviews according to Republican veep candidate J.D. Vance, that the Trump campaign is openly rooting for her to do more.
“Every time she does [an interview], I think we pick up 100,000 votes,” Vance quipped during a rally on Saturday in Leesport, Pa., when asked about Harris avoiding media interviews.
Harris’ latest public-speaking debacle came Thursday during a star-studded virtual rally hosted by Oprah Winfrey.
She ended with a two-minute monologue that confused many people listening — including Winfrey, according to online commentators who said the powerful media mogul looked “lost” and “unimpressed.”
“We love our country. I love our country. I know we all do, that’s why everybody’s here right now. We love our country. We– we take pride in the privilege of being American and this is a moment where we can and must come together as Americans, understanding we have so much more in common than what separates us,” Harris said with pauses and smiles.
Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump also fired shots at Harris’ bizarre remarks at the celebrity rally while addressing 10,000 of his supporters on Saturday in Wilmington, N.C.
“Kamala was a total disaster yesterday, and at every other interview it’s been a freefall …. She just can’t do an interview,” he said.
During a softball interview with an ABC affiliate last week – her first solo media sit-down since becoming the Democratic presidential nominee — Harris also appeared to dodge questions and said little of substance.
Harris went off on a series of cringe-worthy rants with anchor Brian Taff of Philadelphia-based Action News 6, including after Taff’s initial question on how she’d bring prices down in the U.S.
“Well, I’ll start with this: I grew up as a middle-class kid. My mother raised my sister and me. She worked very hard,” said Harris, before moving on to greener pastures — but not the economy.
“I grew up in a neighborhood of folks who were very proud of their lawn. You know? And, um, and I was raised to believe and to know that all people deserve dignity,” the vice president added.
She never said how she’d tackle inflation, but instead highlighted her proposed policy to give a $25,000 handout to new homeowners and provide tax breaks to new small businesses.
