MSNBC propagandist Stephanie Ruhle may not be the dumbest liberal on TV but he is in the top two. She claims that it is not important that Harris refuses to say what actions he will take as president should the Democrats manage to steal the election. Sure, why would it be important for voters to know whe4re she stands on the issues? I see a pattern being developed by the Democrats in presidential elections.
Joe Biden hid out in his basement to keep from answering questions and Harris is Joe Biden without the basement. They are hoping to catch lightening in a bottle for a second time. But, they are right about one thing, they can’t win an election if they are honest to the voters. Would you have voted for Biden in 2020 if he would have told you he would open the border and drive inflation through the ceiling? Or that he would abandon $84 billion dollars worth of weapons to the Taliban?
The network announced Wednesday that Ruhle would be interviewing Harris after Ruhle had previously defended the presidential candidate for failing to answer for her policy flip-flops. Ruhle touched on Harris’ economic policies and tariffs but also asked her what her last “biggest gut decision” was and if she had previously worked at McDonalds — something her campaign has failed to provide evidence for. After the MSNBC host asked Harris where she fell when it came to tariffs, she pivoted to talking about Trump’s policies, an answer Ruhle later defended.
MSNBC host Chris Hayes said:
“I thought the exchanges on tariffs was interesting, particularly when you said, look, which is true, I think people think we live in this free trade era, which we do compared to previous. But there’s also lots of tariffs on lots of stuff. Presidents have unbelievable unilateral authority to apply them. I remember George W. Bush doing this on aluminum and steel. Obviously Trump did it. Joe Biden, as you noted. You basically said, ‘Look, where are you?’ And I thought her answer was interesting. ‘Basically, well, it kind of depends.’”

“I think that’s the important part, sort of the nuance. I’m going to be honest, President Biden has tariffs in place. He’s held a lot of Donald Trump’s tariffs in place. And the White House doesn’t like to talk about it. They don’t like it when you ask them about it because everybody has gotten in this zone of like Trump’s the tariff guy. We’re not the tariff people, we here on the other side,” she began.
“What she did right there was kind of explain that it’s complicated, right? We’re a country of 330 million people. Our economy is complicated. Right? In the same way as the economy good or bad? It totally depends. So tariffs, if used in the right places, can work. And one could watch that and say she didn’t give a clear, direct answer. That’s okay. Because we’re not talking about clear or direct issues,” Ruhle added.
Ruhle and Harris’ conversation was the first national solo interview the vice president had done since launching her presidential campaign. After dodging media for more than a month, the vice president finally made her first media appearance in August on CNN for a dual interview with her running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz.
The vice president still has yet to explain why she has continued to flip-flop on various policy issues or why her campaign refuses to define her stance on several topics. Harris has also only briefly addressed whether she knew about Biden’s physical and mental decline – which ultimately led to him dropping out of the presidential race.
