Vice President Kamala Harris recently sat down with Fox News anchor Bret Baier, marking her first appearance on the conservative network. The interview was a heated one, with Harris shifting the focus from her own record to criticizing former President Donald Trump. She was quick to point out Trump's past opposition to a bipartisan border security bill and referred to him as "unstable. " Harris also accused Fox News of downplaying Trump's controversial statements, such as his remarks about using the military against American protesters. She emphasized the importance of a president being able to handle criticism without resorting to threats.
The interview comes at a time when Harris is trying to appeal to Republicans and independents who are uneasy with Trump. She recently campaigned with figures like former Wyoming Rep. Liz Cheney and former Georgia Lt. Gov. Geoff Duncan. During the Fox News interview, she differentiated herself from President Joe Biden, stating that her presidency would not be a continuation of his. When asked about a Trump campaign ad highlighting her past support for providing gender-affirming care to prisoners, Harris said she would follow the law. She pointed out that such surgeries were available under the Trump administration on a medical necessity basis. Harris also addressed the Biden administration's handling of the U. S. -Mexico border, arguing for a bipartisan border security bill that was blocked by Republicans. She maintained that the immigration system is broken and needs repair.
