Kamala Harris approaching for her eighth look on “The Late Present” on CBS is a part of a dreary routine, the Stephen Colbert Democratic Precinct Corridor. However if you really watch the interview and break it down, you’ll be able to’t assist however suppose: a 12-year-old may ask more durable questions.
They might begin with: “Um, there appears to be a number of Democrats who don’t need you to run once more.” Not like the shortage of a main in 2024, there ought to be a really aggressive main as Trump is term-limited. He can not run once more.
However the first nitpick is that this. All through the interview, in three segments, lasting 23 minutes, he saved calling her Vice President Kamala Harris. Not former Vice President. Like he can’t settle for there’s a brand new vp. The promotional idea was bizarre. She’s promoting a e book that was simply introduced, and it’s not popping out for one more seven weeks. Nevertheless it was the everyday toe-kiss.
Whereas it is nonetheless on, the Colbert present is Exhibit A to argue with anybody — Terry Moran, Chuck Todd — who’s making an attempt to say CBS is lifeless, or that is it is “state-run TV.” CBS continues to be anti-Trump on the air.
This was Colbert’s listing of inquiries:
How are you doing?
How is Doug doing?
What was it wish to certify the outcomes on January 6? Did you name Mike Pence?
Are you working for president?
You say the system is damaged? (WHEN YOU LOSE)
What would you like readers to remove out of your e book? What shocked you most in your 2024 marketing campaign?
What was it like for you when Biden dropped out of the race?
Did individuals let you know earlier than that to Be Ready to be the nominee?
And eventually, essentially the most infuriating one: How a lot would you wish to say I Advised You So about your predictions about what Trump would do? It’s all there however the pom-poms. Who wants this narrowcasting?
To me, essentially the most ridiculous a part of this was her reply to the I Advised You So query, her fake outrage at how Republicans have “capitulated” to Trump. Democrats all the time count on that everybody inside their celebration will fall in line. After which Democrats count on each Republican to go Full Cheney-Kinzinger or else they’re all in a suicide cult.
Earth to Kamala: As if Democrats (beginning with you) did not capitulate to a doddering president and nobody might inform Biden he did not have the marbles to be president. Who capitulated!?
Does anybody bear in mind Kamala Harris boldly stepping away from Joe Biden, or was she extra like a waitress taking orders? The so-called Democrats had no primaries. Who informed RFK Jr and Dean Phillips and the New Age guru woman Marianne Williamson to go away get out go pound sand?
All the potential 2024 contenders – Gavin Newsom, Gretchen Whitmer, Pete Buttigieg, Huge Tub Pritzker – have been too scared to mount a problem. Some state events would permit any Biden opponents to have their names on the poll! That is the so-called Democratic Get together. However guys, you’re not in a Individuals’s Temple cult, as a result of the cult chief has a mind as comfortable as a burro banana.
