Kamala Harris Interview Tonight And A Breakdown Of Her Campaign Run

Apper and we start this hour with the massive breaking news our very first look at CNN's exclusive interview with Democratic presidential candidate kamla Harris Harris and her running mate Governor Tim wall sat down with CNN's Dana Bash at interview that wrapped up just moments ago in Georgia where Harris and walls are trying to win over voters and what will be one of the most important swing States in this election now this is the paris's first interview as the Democratic ticket and it's Harris's first interview since the presidential race was upended less than 6 weeks ago go straight to CNN's Dana Bash Dana a pivotal time a pivotal moment in this campaign the first ballots get mailed out next week tell us about the conversation m i Phil well it was wide ranging we talked about several issues that are very important to voters including and especially of course the economy affordability one of the key uh issues for kamla Harris is that because she has not run on her own uh since she ran briefly during the 2020 cycle is what are her policy positions Now versus what they were before and I asked her about a few very specific uh policies for example on immigration and on uh the issue of energy the green New Deal fracking and then more broadly talked about her changes and how that could or should affect vo how should voters look at some of the changes that you've made uh that you explained some of here uh in your policy is it because you have more experience now and you've learned more about the information is it because you were running for president in a Democratic primary and should they feel comfortable and confident that what you're saying now is going to be your policy moving forward Dana I think the the the most important and most significant aspect of my policy perspective and decisions is my values have not changed you mentioned the green New Deal I have always believed and I have worked on it that the climate crisis is real that it is an urgent matter to which we should apply metrics that include holding ourselves to deadlines around time we did that with the inflation reduction act we have set goals for the United States of America and by extension the globe around when we should meet certain standards for reduction of greenhouse gas emissions as an example that value has not changed it doesn't Inspire confidence in me as a woman I mean everyone's supposed to be celebrating that she could be our first female president and she can't even do a sit down interview on her own that I got news for you madam Harris that's not how the presidency is supposed to work you actually are an a single individual imbued with a lot of power a lot of power go read article two and you don't get to do it with your binky right next to you you're your big white blankie for every every interview that's what he is that actually works perfectly I used to have a big white blankie that I carried everywhere he happens to be white and he is her big white blankie that she she needs in order to talk to the Press Harris was um put in charge as you said earlier of combating the roots of immigration she was not and is not the borders are and the Biden Administration did task a vice president KLA Harris with the issue of Migrant Crossings naming her the so-called border um you know look unfortunately for America the court NE isn't necessarily wrong that this is the way the framers wanted it to be they wanted congress the people who are closest to their constituents to be able to make the the rules of the law as you well know the Trump Administration negotiated the withdrawal agreement from uh Afghanistan talian State depart a conditional agreement and he left bam Air Base he left 2500 troops his visor came to them him and said the Taliban haven't lived up to it and he said fine deals off so how is it that the Democrats can back away from the Iran deal from the border from Keystone EXL can turn the page on literally dozens of trump policies but yet they're going to convince us that they were somehow handcuffed with a Doha agreement that Trump himself said the Taliban didn't live up to it's a bunch of BS and they know it and did not acknowledge that is a slap in the face to to the veterans and the goldar F and they're the on gone after political opponents there's no evidence that Joe Biden has gone after political appoints uh opponents is this Joe Biden with a mask on that's beside the point but you have to remember that Camala Harris if elected she wants to pack the court and you're going to see complete Mayhem and abuse of her with the lawfare Kamala Harris cannot win he even called for termination of the United States Supreme the the the Supreme land of our nation the United States Constitution the Trump campaign says the interview only lasted 18 minutes we'll see but the shot was a mess she looked small and hunched over on a table from Office Max squished in between Dana Bash and her chaperon who Towers over her inside a back lit Cafe with her bus looming out the window not presidential and with a month to prepare this is the best comma could do how should voters look at some of the changes that you've made uh that you explained some of here uh in your policy is it because you have more experience now and you've learned more about the information is it because you were running for president in a Democratic primary and should they feel comfortable and confident that what you're saying now is going to be your policy moving forward Dana I think the the the most important and most significant aspect of my policy perspective and decisions is my values have not changed you mentioned the green New Deal I have always believed and I have worked on it that the climate crisis is real that it is an urgent matter to which we should apply metrics that include holding ourselves to deadlines around time we did that with the inflation reduction act we have set goals for the United States of America and by extension the globe around when we should meet certain standards for reduction of greenhouse gas emissions as an example that value has not changed my value around what we need to do to secure our border that value has not changed I spent two terms as the Attorney General of California Prosecuting transnational criminal organizations violations of American laws regarding the passing illegal passage of guns drugs and human beings across our border my values have not changed CNN asked comma why she flipflop on everything and she said no I didn't CNN even gave her options maybe it was because of this maybe it was because of that hint hint no kamla denied changing her position on everything even though her campaign spent the last month saying she changed her position on everything she just said I'm the same California social who ran for president as the most liberal member of the Senate her values haven't changed first she said she prosecuted human beings crossing the border then when she was running for president she said it's not illegal to cross the border then when she was the borders are she didn't prosecute anybody crossing the border and now that she's running for president she wants to build a wall and her values haven't changed okay look this is what she said on the green New Deal she sponsored a bill so you won't be able to buy a gas powered car in 20 years and then her campaign says she doesn't believe that anymore even though that's what she did in the Biden Administration then she makes a huge mistake and admits the inflation reduction Act was really just the green New Deal and says this it is an urgent matter to which we should apply metrics that include holding ourselves to deadlines around time deadlines around time what other kind of deadlines are there and yeah Biden's Green New Deal which she cast the deciding vote to pass which jacked up inflation creates deadlines around time for gas powerered cars to be phased out so she values getting rid of the car you drive even though her campaign literally said yesterday she didn't want to do that I think the Nativity of some that question that she may have changed on some things they're comparing something that may have have been 4 years ago with something that was 4 years later the situation changed right let's keep it simple for Al and happy Dei Thursday by the way the situation changed because of what Biden Harris did to the country Biden Harris opened the Border it backfired and now Harris wants to build a wall to get elected isn't it amazing they go three years and now they say oh we're going to do this we're going to do that the only good thing that she's flip-flopping she's the greatest flip floper things that she never even thought of she's probably goes back to her room and gets sick to her stomach when she says what she has to say because she's a Marxist she's a fascist the Harris campaign's starting to leak the Biden campaign never leaked because it was just a bunch of old friends from Delaware who never talked to anybody but Harris inherited the Biden campaign brought in her Loyalists and then Obama parachuted his people on top so there's three war in camps inside the Harris campaign and none of them trust each other axios reporting there's serious tensions between Obama world and Biden world the feeling inside of the Frankenstein Harris campaign nobody knows who's the boss and the staff's confused and frustrated by having to defend comm's flipflops and radical record K is just as confused as her staff he even called for termination of the United States Supreme the the the Supreme land of our nation the United States Constitution think about what that means I don't know what that means and neither do she she's been cramming too hard for the debate and can't get her line straight she went from Barack Obama to Joe Biden the Democrat numbers Guru Nate silver says the odds have shifted back to Trump as the favorite imagine getting a month of adoring press coverage and your Fresh Off Your convention with Oprah and Michelle and the numbers say you're going to lose if Trump got a month of the coverage Kamala got he'd win New York California and Hawaii the fundamentals of this race haven't changed their ticket just got a facelift Americans now more than ever believe the American dream is Out Of Reach and Harris who presided over The Disappearance of Hope and Dreams is running against herself trying to fool you into thinking she had nothing to do with the last four years the comma campaigns in illusion of change that only bamboozles people focused on race and gender quick question while you came what what you like about Harris platform just very excited about moving forward and uh all the uh energy and excitement that's around uh this movement right now so that that's why I'm here because uh it's you know time for change and it seems like it's happening what's the difference between Joe Biden and KLA Harris besides race and gender that's the only change that happened here sticking with the woman who crushed the American dream isn't change we will bring back the American dream bigger better stronger and just better bigger better we love the American dream you don't hear about the American dream what was the last time you heard about the American dream they don't talk about it although they copy everything else I do so I guess that'll be next they'll be copying they'll be saying oh the American dream she doesn't know what the American dream is a house a family a safe neighborhood and a good salary that leaves you comfortable in retirement is Out Of Reach for millions of Americans after four years of Biden Harris got all right govern go cookout time all right
