The Morning Briefing: Halloween's Scariest Horror Story — Four More Years of Kamala Harris

Top O' the Briefing

Happy Thursday, dear Kruiser Morning Briefing friends. The Sine Qua Non Sequitur is taking a vacation day to help shred cheese at a community nachos collective.

Forget the politics for a moment. I can't make it through four years of that voice.

Kamala Harris has a voice that nails on a chalkboard find irritating. This is the first presidential election in which I won't just be concerned about the issues; I will also be voting with my eardrums. Yeah, that's shallow and petty, but it's honest, too.

As I don't share much of the enthusiasm that other Trump supporters are exhibiting these days, I really dread the thought of being subjected to that voice for four years.

Trainwreck Kamala hit Fox News last night, not only facing tough questions for the first time but also follow-up questions. Until now, Madame Veep didn't even know that those existed. It was worse than any of us might have imagined. Paula braved the entire thing for us, and here are some of her thoughts:

Vice President Kamala Harris deigned to sit for an interview on Fox News Channel's "Special Report" with Bret Baier on Wednesday, embarrassing both herself and the United States.
She refused to answer basic questions about her own policies and the record of the Harris-Biden administration, repeatedly filibustered to avoid answering, and even shouted at one point. She was combative throughout, and it was blatantly obvious that she planned to avoid answering substantive questions at all costs.

Harris doesn't answer the serious questions for a couple of reasons. The first is that she doesn't have much in the way of policy to offer the American people. Her campaign is all about making Donald Trump the biggest monster under the bed and scaring people into voting for her. She's quick to say, "I'm not Donald Trump," in interviews.

We're aware, Toots; Donald Trump can string together more than two coherent sentences.

The reason Harris isn't offering a lot of policy solutions is that she doesn't have the intellectual heft to grasp and convey them. She could surround herself with the greatest political thinkers the Democrats have to offer (I know, I know) and have them draw up what they think would be bold leftist answers to the country's problems, but it would all get mangled on the trip from her brain to her mouth.

If you watch the video record of her debate with Trump and her recent video blitz, it's easy to figure out the very simple script that her campaign has had her memorize. She often even struggles with that.

As I've written before—and my friend Matt Vespa mentioned in his post about the FNC interview—the dull-witted Harris would be a nightmare in a crisis should she become president. When pressing military decisions need to be made, we can't have a president who mistakes panicky gesticulation for communication.

My Twitchy colleague "justmindy" offered the most damning review of Harris's interview:

How do you know the Kamala interview on Fox with Bret Baier was an unmitigated disaster? When Trump's official campaign account tweets out not just a clip or two, but the whole unedited interview. It was that bad.

The scariest word for anyone on Harris's staff dealing with a media appearance is "unedited." The Trump campaign was probably salivating all day for the chance to get this entire interview out there.

I've checked the leftmedia responses to the interview, and they're all in sync on saying Brett Baier kept interrupting Harris, which is a real stretch. They are dutifully covering for Harris, and it must be exhausting.

It won't work. There's no way to edit the stupid out of this woman.
