“Is Kamala Harris the worst vice president ever in the history of the country, the world, the universe?” asks Sara Gonzales, admitting that it’s a “very rhetorical question.”
“The obvious answer is yes,” she continues, before playing a clip of Harris’ recent interview with CBS News, where, to Sara’s shock, the mainstream media actually asked some decent questions.
“Most Americans say that they don’t think you’re doing a good job on the border – you and the administration,” said CBS’ Bill Whitaker. “The number of people trying to cross the U.S. southern border is at an all-time high.”
“It’s no secret that we have a broken immigration system,” Harris responded. “Short term, we need a safe, orderly, and humane border policy, and long term we need to invest in the root causes of migration, but the bottom line – Congress needs to act; come on, participate in the solution instead of political gamesmanship.”
“You’re soliciting solutions? Let’s meet tomorrow; let’s get you impeached; let’s get you out of our office; let’s absolutely decimate the fact that you were ever even in charge of anything close to the border,” retorts Blaze contributor Jaco Booyens, citing the loss of “85,000 children,” “rape trees,” “cartels flooding across the border, damage to American property, high-speed chases, deaths, [and] murder by illegal aliens.”
Sara agrees, adding that “there is a lot of danger … in the language that [Harris] used when” advocating for a “safe, orderly, and humane border policy.”
She’s essentially saying that “we need to find a way to let all of these people in in a safe, orderly, and humane way,” she continues. “She still wants to let them in, [but] she wants it to be safer for them, not for you.”
But the border chaos wasn’t the only thing discussed in Harris’ interview.
Whitaker also asked about Harris’ and Biden’s unremarkable polling results, especially considering Trump’s long list of indictments.
“Why are you not 30 points ahead?” he bluntly asked.
“Well, I’m not a political pundit, so I’m not going to speak to that,” she replied, “but what I will say is this: When the American people are able to take a close look at election time on their options, I think the choice is going to be clear. Bill, we’re going to win; let me just tell you that we’re going to win.”
“Wow – that sounded confident,” laughs Sara.
