“That Is a World-Class Pivot” — Kamala Harris Gets Absolutely Grilled and Called Out for Dodging Biden’s Obvious Mental Decline in Cringe-Worthy Word Salad Interview

In yet another painfully awkward public moment, Kamala Harris got absolutely torched during an exclusive interview with ABC’s Sarah Ferguson when pressed about Joe Biden’s mental decline

The interview, aired Wednesday night, was meant to be a softball promo for Harris’s memoir, which ABC hyped as an inside look at “the shortest and most consequential Presidential campaign in modern history.”

What viewers got instead was a masterclass in liberal denial. Ferguson, to her credit, didn’t let Harris off the hook, repeatedly pressing her on Biden’s refusal to step aside despite his obvious frailties, frailties that were on full display during that disastrous debate where he could barely string a coherent sentence together.

“Wasn’t Joe Biden then to put it on him? Wasn’t his refusal to recognize his own frailties, the reason that you faced a nearly impossible task?” Ferguson asked pointedly.

Harris launched into a convoluted rant that had nothing to do with the question:

“I ran against Donald Trump for president, and Donald Trump ran on a platform that was, in large part, I believe, misrepresenting his intentions to the American people.

I do believe that there are a fair number of people who voted for Donald Trump who believed him when he told them that his first priority on day one was going to be to bring down prices—and he didn’t.

And you combine that misrepresentation of intention with what was at play in terms of massive amounts of mis- and disinformation—forgive me—and a calendar in terms of the clock.”

Ferguson quickly cut through the nonsense:

“I want to interrupt you because that is a world-class pivot, but it is not the question that I asked you, which is about Joe Biden’s failure to recognize his own frailties and what that did to you. The question is about Joe Biden.”

The look on Harris’s face said it all — deer-in-the-headlights panic followed by another evasive deflection.

Ferguson, to her credit, didn’t back down, probing why Harris “won’t go to that prolonged frailty question.”

Harris’s response was more deflection, claiming she’d addressed it in her book while dismissing the debate as a one-off due to “travel schedule” and “timing.”

Sarah Ferguson:
Are you still reluctant to criticize the former president?

Kamala Harris:
In what regard, please?

Sarah Ferguson:
Well, just in terms of that question. So you went on…

Kamala Harris:
What exactly would you like to ask? Be more specific, if you don’t mind.

Sarah Ferguson:
Was it Joe Biden’s decision—his failure to recognize his own frailties in that position—that put you in a position that made it almost impossible to win that race?

Kamala Harris:
He was not frail as President of the United States.

Sarah Ferguson:
But he had frailties. We all saw the debate.

Kamala Harris:
I do believe that Joe Biden had the capacity to be President of the United States, and I have never doubted that he had the capacity to be President of the United States. If you want to talk about whether he had the ability to endure what a race for President of the United States would require in that political environment in 2024—as I’ve said in the book—I had concerns.

Sarah Ferguson:
I’m just wondering, is there a reason why you won’t go to that prolonged frailty question? We saw the debate. We saw the difficulty he had marshaling his thoughts.

Kamala Harris:
I have answered that question. I do not believe that there…

Sarah Ferguson:
I think it’s just hard, watching the debate, to see how there could not be a problem long term with someone who can’t marshal their thoughts. I’m not saying his acuity wasn’t present…

Kamala Harris:
I talked about that in the book, and I also mentioned the context in which that debate occurred. And you’ll probably remember how I talked about that in terms of what his travel schedule had been, what he had been enduring in terms of the timing of that debate. I talk about it extensively in the book. I’m not shying away from that. That’s why I wrote it in the book, because I do know it’s a question people had.
