Kamala Harris, the do-nothing VP and unelected Democratic presidential candidate, is FINALLY breaking her self-imposed press silence since being anointed the Democrats’ presidential nominee. But don’t get too excited – she’s not flying solo.

Harris will be giving her first interview since Joe Biden’s exit from the race on Thursday evening, and, surprise surprise (NOT), it’s with Democrat-loving CNN at 9 p.m. ET. And it’s not just Harris either. It’s a “joint” appearance with her running mate, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz.

The debate is so thrilling and eagerly awaited that it even comes with a blockbuster title: “The First Interview: Harris & Walz – A CNN Exclusive.”

You’d think a candidate vying for the highest office might want a little alone time in the spotlight, but it seems Harris would rather have a buddy system in place to keep her from sounding like a total idiot. The interview won’t be live either – it will be recorded and shown later (i.e. highly edited to help out the Harris campaign.)

A pre-recorded interview will ensure that every gaffe gets left on the cutting room floor. After all, why risk an unscripted moment when you can have a perfectly curated one instead?

Softballs and safety nets.

What is Kamala’s favorite ice cream flavor? What’s her favorite color? While we might not find out the answers to these burning questions, I doubt we’ll find out any information on any important policy issues. And if we DO hear about something specific, it’ll be a lie like her supposed new support for a border wall.

PUH-LEEZZE. No One believes that. As Trump has said about that, it’s total “BULLSH*T.”

But let’s be real: she’s just making it up as she goes, tailoring her message to whatever she thinks will snag those crucial swing state votes. It’s the classic political playbook – say what needs to be said, no matter how far-fetched, just to keep the numbers up and the polls friendly.

Friendly CNN asking the “hard” questions.

The Harris-Walz interview will be conducted by Dana Bash, the CNN anchor known for asking the kinds of questions that make Democratic candidates feel like they’re lounging on a beach rather than sweating in the hot seat. Harris and Walz can expect a round of gentle softballs that even Little Leaguers would find insulting.

So why all the fuss and insistence on doing pre-recorded interview with a friendly face instead of real interviews across the media spectrum? Perhaps it’s because Harris has been, let’s say, less than stellar in her off-the-cuff moments since she’s been in the public spotlight.

Kamala’s less-than-artful remarks over the years gives her handlers great pause about putting her out in the public arena where real questions could be asked that demand real answers and not lectures about the significance of the passage of time.

Unready for the Oval Office.

How can Harris possibly convince voters she’s ready to stand up to global leaders or make quick decisions in a crisis if she needs a co-pilot just to handle a friendly chat? She can’t. A Harris-Walz administration (Obama 3.0) is about as scary as it gets especially in today’s world.
