Kamala Harris Avoids the Press – But for How Much Longer?

The one thing politicians aspire to do well is interact with the media and the public. Communication is a necessary skill to get elected so that a candidate’s message can reach the populace. The media’s job is to challenge and press the candidate on major issues so that the electorate has the information required to make an informed decision. The Democratic Party, however, is allowing this critical factor to become a thing of the past.

It all started back in 2020 with Biden when his surrogates used COVID as a pretense to avoid public scrutiny. By avoiding the media and through nefarious acts by our government, like denying the legitimacy of  Hunter Biden’s laptop, Joe Biden was essentially able to slip through the cracks. Despite bad policy ideas and a steep mental decline, Joe Biden won the presidential election and was inaugurated as president of the United States in 2021. Look at how that turned out – the economy on nearly every metric is suffering, the Southern Border is nonexistent, and we are closer to World War 3 than we have ever been, with nations like Russia and China forming an unholy alliance. Our incompetent Vice President Kamala Harris would like to piggyback off this scheme. The question is – will Americans and the press allow this to happen again?

The Democratic Party is simply not playing by the rules. When it became blindingly apparent after June’s debate with Donald Trump that Biden was not physically or mentally capable to continue the presidency for the next four years, the party unabashedly removed him from the race and inserted VP Harris as the nominee, four months before Election Day – primary democratic voters be damned. This act, in and of itself, should disqualify her, but with the media’s aggressive help, Kamala Harris has risen in the polls. The problem for her is that she is devoid of knowledge on any number of issues, she is an unlikeable person, and she is completely incapable of expressing cogent statements.

What happens when Kamala does speak? Well, let’s take a look at a press conference amid the Ukraine-Russian war. Standing next to the president of Poland, Vice President Harris is asked a serious question about the United States’ role in accepting Ukrainian refugees. Please take a moment to click on the following short link to watch her embarrassing response while standing at a podium next to another allied world leader. Kamala wasn’t the only one laughing – that inappropriate, cringy laugh. Do you know who else laughed after that humiliating response? Russia, China and Iran.

Kamala has become known as the queen of the word salad. Why? Because she has been an unvetted and unchallenged candidate at every level – from her days as San Francisco District Attorney to this moment, vying for the President of the most powerful country in the world. You can spend hours viewing her mortifying articulations, but I’ll stop with this short video clip. Even some pundits on CNN are demanding that she be challenged by the media, and this excludes scripted stump speeches. Harris needs to extend her access to interviews and press conferences. It’s what independents, and quite frankly, all Americans are thirsting for. Her website doesn’t even have any policy plans three months before election day!

Many of us know that if Kamala Harris becomes the next president, the years of damage that Biden has already caused this country will become irreversible for generations. It is incumbent upon the press to ask her legitimate questions, and it is necessary that we the people receive substantive answers. Last week, Donald Trump held an unscripted, hour-long press conference answering various questions, including hostile ones. Aside from getting a little bogged down in crowd size, he gave concrete and significant information on policy from energy and electrical vehicle mandates to abortion and foreign affairs.

Love him or hate him – the people know where Donald Trump stands, and nobody can sincerely argue that he does not offer full access. Kamala Harris needs to offer the same thing. It is essential for a free and fair election and for a competent presidency. The press needs to step up, stop advocating, and start doing their job.
