Kamala Harris’ first solo interview this week has sparked quite a storm on social media, and not in a good way. Instead of coming across as a confident vice president ready to take on the top job, Harris’ rambling answers left people scratching their heads. Her long-winded, meandering response to a simple question about economic policies for Pennsylvanians had critics on X (formerly Twitter) wondering if she has any plan at all.

It started off with Harris talking about growing up middle class, a personal anecdote that had nothing to do with the question. And after going on about her childhood and proud neighbors mowing their lawns, she finally threw out some vague policy ideas like a $50,000 tax deduction for start-up businesses and $25,000 down payment assistance for new home buyers. But by that point, many had already tuned out.

As stated on Fox News:

“When we talk about bringing down prices and making life more affordable for people, what are one or two specific things you have in mind for that?” Taff asked.

Harris replied, stating, “Well, I’ll start with this. I grew up a middle-class kid. My mother raised my sister and me. She worked very hard. She was able to finally save up enough money to buy our first house when I was a teenager.”

The Democratic candidate continued: “I grew up in a community of hard-working people, you know, construction workers and nurses and teachers. And I try to explain to some people who may not have had the same experience. You know, a lot of people will relate to this.”

Critics wasted no time roasting Harris’ performance. Greg Price called it an “absolute train wreck,” while Ryan Saavedra of the Daily Wire was left wondering how someone so unprepared could be this close to the presidency. Others like Matt Kadish and Tim Murtaugh piled on, noting how Harris struggled with the same talking points she used during the 2020 debate. No fresh ideas, just the same lines recycled. Even pro-Democrat voices were nowhere to be found defending her.

The Trump War Room jumped in, pointing out that Harris can’t seem to offer anything beyond her tired “I grew up middle class” story. For someone heading into a high-stakes election cycle, this performance isn’t exactly inspiring confidence.

One thing is clear: this interview didn’t do Harris any favors. If anything, it’s left voters questioning whether she’s ready for the highest office in the land.
