The channel's chief political anchor Bret Baier interviewed the US Vice President on Thursday night Norwegian time. The interview between US Vice President Kamala Harris and Fox News anchor Bret Baier on Wednesday began with a tense exchange about immigration.
Baer asked Harris if she felt she owed an apology to the families of three women killed by immigrants.
– Let me first say that these are tragic cases, Harris replied.
Before that, Harris and Baier had an exchange in which Harris claimed the Fox anchor didn't let her finish her answers.
When asked how many illegal immigrants the Biden administration had allowed into the country, Harris responded that shortly after the inauguration, they introduced a bill to reform the immigration system.
– But you had the White House, the House of Representatives, and the Senate, and you didn't put this bill forward, Bair intervened.
“I'm in the middle of answering the point you made, and I'd like to finish,” Harris replied sharply.
– Yes. “Yes, ma’am,” Baer said.
Harris stressed that the Biden administration had reached a bipartisan border plan, and accused Donald Trump of killing it in order to use it as an election issue.
She added that the American people want solutions and want a president who does not play the issue politically.
He distanced himself from Biden and Trump
– Let me be very clear: My presidency will not be a continuation of Joe Biden's presidency, Harris told Fox News host Bret Baier.
She confirms that she will bring her life experiences, professional experiences, and new ideas to the White House.
– The Vice President says: – I represent a new generation of leadership.
Harris claims she wants to turn the page on “rhetoric that people are frankly tired of.” She is particularly critical of Donald Trump's rhetoric over the past ten years:
“We were burdened by the kind of Donald Trump rhetoric that was designed and executed to divide our country and literally make Americans point fingers at each other,” Harris says.
The interview comes at a time when Harris has increased his media exposure, but mainly on friendlier channels.
Bret Baier previously led the channel's coverage of both the Democratic and Republican National Conventions. He also moderated debates and rallies with candidates from across the political spectrum, including former President Donald Trump.
Democrats appear to be changing their media strategy in this year's election campaign. The vice president's interview on Fox is the latest sign that the party is increasingly willing to stand up to the channel, the Associated Press reported.
Since the party's national convention in August, nearly twice as many Democrats have lined up on Fox than during the same period of Joe Biden's campaign in 2020. There are also far more than there were when Hillary Clinton was the party's presidential nominee in 2016.
“Our campaign believes it is important to speak to all Americans, regardless of their source of information or entertainment,” says Harris spokesman Ian Sams.
Trump complained
The new Fox strategy adopted by the Democrats did not go unnoticed. Donald Trump complained this week on social media that Sam “practically owns the network.” Trump claimed it wasn't worth appearing on Fox News because “it boils down to nothing.”
Several Democrats have recently appeared on Fox, including Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg and Governors Gavin Newsom and Josh Shapiro. Appearances are mostly limited to daytime and weekend broadcasts.
According to Dan Pfeiffer, a former adviser to President Barack Obama, it can attract attention when a Democrat goes “into enemy territory.”
He believes moderate Republicans and independent voters are an important target group for Harris' campaign.
The interview on Fox News was part of a direct appeal from Harris to Republican voters ahead of this year's presidential election. Earlier in the day, she gave a speech in Bucks County outside Philadelphia, where she focused on Trump's attempt to overturn his election defeat four years ago.
– Refusing to accept the will of the people and the results of free and fair elections. Harris said, according to Reuters, that he sent an armed mob to the US Capitol building, where they violently attacked police officers and threatened the life of his deputy.
More than 100 Republicans joined Harris in Bucks County to show support for her campaign. Among them was Adam Kinzinger, a former congressman and member of the committee that investigated the attack on the Capitol on January 6.
