This election is not a typical political one. We are fighting for the lives of future generations! As Elon Musk has indicated, if the democrats win and they could by using “no voter ID” and questionable ballot boxes again, we could lose our freedom of choice and true democracy. We are a Constitutional Republic and the democrats want one uni party to be controlled by a few elites.

I don't know what type of idiot that Wehner guy is. Or am I confusing him with Anthony Weiner? But anyone who has The Atlantic on his resume is in a position of so little trust among anyone that's not a swamp creature.

Another point is that when someone is evaluating an interview such blowhard phrases as, "She dominated him (the interviewer)," are the same type of comments one would make as when evaluating a debate the person tossing out the higher number of insults wins. A newsmaker interview is not about scoring points; it's about answering questions fully. AS a viewer, I consider it a waste of time to see an interviewee giving non-answers to every direct question. I also consider it a waste of time if the interviewer inserts the following types of hooks into their questions:

1 How do you respond to news reports that...?

2 When you made the false accusations of your opponent that...?

Also, there is no reason for an interviewer to think they have to act as a "fact-checker" in real time. Just ask the question, and let the subject respond. That is then the statement of the subject. And don't ask so many questions that have a 2-minute preamble!

Based upon the interview I saw, and the additional background provided by Bret Baier, I had the opinion that Kamala tried as much as possible, in conspiracy with her staff, to show up with the intent of filibustering the questions, with the intent of saying as little as possible in the response. In other words, create a word salad for every question. Instead of giving real information, she went in with the intent of trying to belittle Baier, then say, "See? I wasn't afraid to go on Fox!"

So if that dweeb still thinks Kamala "won" the interview, then he doesn't even know what he was watching. He thought he was watching professional wrestling , instead of a serious interview.
