Vice President Kamala Harris had a disastrous interview with CNN anchor Dana Bash and former Republican Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich believes it could end her campaign.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He spoke with Fox Business Network\u2019s \u201cMornings With Maria\u201d guest host Cheryl Casone the day after the interview and predicted that Harris would \u201close the election\u201d because of it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI thought President Trump was being very unfair in that comment. In fact, I think he should invite Kamala Harris to have Governor Walz with her at the presidential debate as sort of a comfort blanket. You know, that way Walz could be allowed to stand next to her, he couldn\u2019t say anything, but she would feel so much more comfortable having him there. My real reaction was, first, that she told us how really, truly liberal she is,\u201d the former Speaker said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWalz basically told us he\u2019s a total liar. He could not even admit to Dana Bash that he had lied about serving in combat. If you watched that segment, he dives off into a total bunch of baloney and he cannot say, \u2018Yes, what I said was wrong.\u2019 I think that\u2019s typical of what Walz is like as a person. In the case of Harris, the big message out of last night is she claims she was really aggressive as the attorney general in California, taking on the various international gangs. Well, how come there\u2019s a Venezuelan gang terrorizing Aurora, Colorado?\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cHow come, under her watch as the czar for the border, we now have eight or nine million illegal immigrants, we have gangs from El Salvador, gangs from Mexico, gangs from Venezuela? You know, it doesn\u2019t ring true. And I think, in that sense, last night showed us that Kamala Harris is going to lose the election,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And he was not the only one to castigate the vice president for her interview.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On Tuesday, CNN conservative commentator Scott Jennings criticized Harris for bringing Walz, arguing that this move highlights her perceived weakness as a candidate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jennings participated in a panel discussion on CNN with anchor Anderson Cooper, who raised the question of whether, after nearly 40 days without a single interview or press conference since Harris became the Democratic Party\u2019s de facto 2024 nominee, critics would highlight her ongoing refusal to appear for an interview solo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIs the line now going to be, well, why isn\u2019t she doing it by herself?\u201d Cooper asked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cYeah, I do think people are going to bring that up,\u201d Jennings replied, saying that while he had \u201cgreat confidence\u201d in both the network and anchor Dana Bash, he agreed it was not a great look for Harris to bring Walz along.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI think it\u2019s incredibly weak \u2014 weak sauce \u2014 to show up with your running mate. The fact that they don\u2019t have enough confidence in her to let her sit, herself, the actual top of the ticket, and do a single interview \u2026\u201d Jennings continued. \u201cI think the hand-wringing and gyrations over this over the last month show a troubling lack of confidence in her political ability. Which also makes you wonder as a voter, well, what kind of president would you be if this kind of a small-time decision \u2014 can we do an interview or not? \u2014 what does that look like for your decision-making process?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cSo yes, I think Republicans are going to think it\u2019s pretty weak to show up with, effectively, someone to take up half the time,\u201d Jennings concluded, referring to Walz in an X post<\/a> as Harris\u2019 \u201cemotional support animal\u201d for the interview.<\/p>\n
