Fox News host Bret Baier interrupted Vice President Harris during an interview on Wednesday evening as she faced difficulty articulating how her presidency would advance the nation, despite her existing position of authority.
This interview represents Harris’ inaugural appearance on the network during her campaign, following a week filled with media engagements on platforms such as CBS and ABC. During “Special Report with Bret Baier,” the host challenged Harris regarding her campaign slogan, “A New Way Forward,” and her assertion that “it’s time to turn the page.” In her initial response, she indicated that she was moving beyond the “last decade” characterized by former President Donald Trump’s “rhetoric.”
“More than 70% of people tell the country is on the wrong track. They say the country is on the wrong track. If it’s on the wrong track, that track follows three and a half years of you being vice president and President Biden being president. That is what they’re saying, 79% of them. Why are they saying that? If you are turning the page, you’ve been in office for three and a half years,” Baier said.
“And Donald Trump has been running for office since — ” Harris began.
Baier countered and highlighted to the vice president that she has been “the person holding the office,” to which Harris responded by asserting that the host comprehended her point.
“C’mon, you and I both know what I’m talking about. You and I both know what I’m talking about,” Harris said.
“I actually don’t. What are you talking about?” Baier asked.
