Right here’s a kind of quotes, by way of Twitchy:
It’s not fairly clear what Ms. Harris gained, other than giving her marketing campaign aides the power to say she held a one-on-one cable tv interview. For the vp, this was roughly the identical ballpark as Mr. Trump having certainly one of his common chats with Sean Hannity of Fox Information.
Harris’s media technique of hiding from the press has not labored out nicely for her. When she lastly decides to do media, it’s underwhelming and never informative. To not point out cringeworthy.
