ICYMI: Harris Gets Grilled On ‘60 Minutes’ for Alienating ‘millions and millions’ of Voters by Calling Trump ‘racist’; Vapid Kamala Harris’ ‘60 Minutes’ Sitdown Shows Why She’s Avoided the Press; WATCH: This May Be Kamala's Biggest Train Wreck Interview Yet

Harris gets grilled on ‘60 Minutes’ for alienating ‘millions and millions’ of voters by calling Trump ‘racist’:
Vice President Kamala Harris got grilled in a tense “60 Minutes” interview Monday night for alienating “millions and millions” of US voters by calling former President Donald Trump a “racist.”
CBS News correspondent Bill Whitaker took Harris to task for portraying Trump as “racist and divisive.”
“You have accused Donald Trump of using racist tropes when it comes to Haitian immigrants in Springfield, Ohio, when it comes to birtherism, when it comes to Charlottesville. In fact, you have called him a racist and divisive,” Whitaker said.
“Yet Donald Trump has the support of millions and millions of Americans. How do you explain that?”
“I am glad you’re pointing these comments out that he has made, that have resulted in a response by most reasonable people to say, ‘It’s just wrong. It’s just wrong,'” Harris, 59, began.
But Whitaker pressed, “With so many people supporting Donald Trump — a man you have called a racist — how do you bridge that seemingly unbridgeable gap?”
Instead of answering, Harris dodged.
“I believe that the people of America want a leader who’s not trying to divide us and demean,” she said. “I believe that the American people recognize that the true measure of the strength of a leader is not based on who you beat down, it’s based on who you lift up.”
As recently as Sept. 10, when Trump and Harris duked it out at the ABC News-hosted debate, the Democratic candidate mischaracterized Trump’s comments, saying it was “a tragedy that we have someone who wants to be president who has consistently over the course of his career attempted to use race to divide the American people.” --->READ MORE HERE

Vapid Kamala Harris’ ‘60 Minutes’ sitdown shows why she’s avoided the press:
Every interview Kamala Harris does reminds us why she does so few. Even with a sympathetic questioner in CBS’ Bill Whitaker and a lot of editing, her pre-recorded “60 Minutes” sit-down that aired Monday didn’t go well.
Harris gave us a glimpse into her mind, and there’s not much there.
Be thankful for small favors: At least she didn’t deflect anything with “I grew up a middle-class kid.”
But her canned evasions still aren’t actually answers to the big questions of this election: What she really believes, how she’d offer “change” from Joe Biden, what she plans to do, or why anyone should expect any of her policies to work.
Whitaker challenged Harris on a few points, but this shouldn’t have been a hard interview.
There were no “gotcha” questions. There were no surprises.
Nearly every topic he broached was something Harris had been asked before, in her debate with former President Donald Trump and in her few prior interviews.
Harris wasn’t asked to defend her administration’s lackluster performance in the response to Hurricane Helene, or its execution of anything other than opening the border to illegal migrants.
Airing as it did on Oct. 7, the interview opened with questions about the war in Gaza. Harris stuck to the administration’s usual weaselly formulation, saying that Israel had a right to defend itself — but immediately pivoting to declare that too many Palestinians have died and “this war has to end.”
So long as she won’t say that Israel can and should disable Hamas and Hezbollah to prevent further attacks on Israel, that’s not a real right to self-defense, but a recipe for a never-ending war in which more Israelis and more Palestinians will die.
So much for “Never again.” --->READ MORE HERE
