On Wednesday, MSNBC anchor Stephanie Ruhle conducted an interview with Vice President Kamala Harris.
Prior to the broadcast of the interview, Ruhle was already offering justifications for the presidential candidate’s persistent inability to provide definitive responses regarding her policies.
“One could watch and say she didn’t give a clear and direct answer. And that’s okay, because we’re not talking about clear and direct issues.” Ruhle said during a subsequent MSNBC appearance.

Harris was essentially the Democratic Party’s candidate by default when President Joe Biden was effectively compelled to withdraw from the contest by prominent members and large-dollar donors within his own party.
Nevertheless, Harris has seldom responded to inquiries and, even less frequently, addressed them since she ascended to the summit of her party’s ticket, despite never having won a single primary vote on her own merits.
Kamala fails to explain how she plans on tackling “price gouging” without implementing price controls.

She redirected her response when asked how she intended to combat price profiteering, a practice she has pledged to combat despite the absence of any evidence that it is occurring, without actually implementing soviet style price controls.
“So, just to be very frank, I am never going to apologize for going after companies and corporations that take advantage of the desperation of the American people,” Harris said.
“Yes, I’m going to go after them, yeah, I’m going to go after them, and that’s part of a more comprehensive plan on what we can do to bring down the cost of living, including housing, including the everyday needs of the American people,” she added.
Ruhle’s interview marked the first time Harris has given an interview to a major network since becoming the Democratic candidate.
