Now we see why the Dems didn’t want Kamala Harris as their nominee.

Four weeks into campaigning, she finally granted an interview — to a very friendly CNN, toting her VP pick Tim Walz along for reasons unknown.

Moral support, perhaps? A buddy to pick up her verbal slack?

Either way, it wasn’t a winning look for someone who wants to be president of the United States.

As for her answers: Harris was vague, policy-free, and at times just plain full of it.

‘Brat summer’ is officially over. Grab your pumpkin spice latte and cozy up to a fraudulent fall.

In attempting to answer Dana Bash’s unimaginative first question — ‘What would you do on Day One in the White House?’ — Kamala was the proverbial car engine struggling to turn over, delaying an actual answer with extraneous, redundant verbiage.

‘Well, there are a number of things,’ she began. ‘First and foremost, one of my highest priorities is to do what we can to support and strengthen the middle class. Um, when I look at the aspirations, the goals, the ambitions of the American people, I think that, um, people are ready for a new way forward.’

Now we see why the Dems didn’t want Kamala Harris as their nominee.

A new way forward! As if she hasn’t been the Vice President for the past three-and-a-half years!

Bash asked the question again: ‘So, what would you do Day One?’

Here we got Kamala’s so-called ‘opportunity economy’, which so far consists of a $6,000 child tax credit for the first year of life and $25,000 in down payment money for first-time homebuyers — with no specifics on who will qualify or how such largesse will be funded.

Meanwhile, her plan to impose federal price controls on grocery stores — a proposal that even left-wing experts warn could result in food shortages and economic ruin — was left rather untouched.

To Bash’s question about Americans doing better under Donald Trump’s presidency, we heard that rusty car engine stuttering once again.

‘Well,’ Harris said, ‘let’s start with the fact that when Joe Biden and I came in office, during the height of a pandemic… hundreds of people a day were dying… the economy had crashed.’

She then claimed that Trump ‘mismanaged’ COVID.

Whether you’re a fan or not, the one thing Trump never gets credit for is Operation Warp Speed. His administration funded research and development that led to a vaccine within months.

But it’s all puzzles and pancakes with Kamala, who claimed she was taken by total, utter surprise when President Biden called her on that fateful Sunday, informing her of his decision to withdraw from the 2024 race.

Bash allowed Kamala to feign shock — even though the Democratic plot to oust Biden post-debate is now well reported.

‘My first thought was not about me, to be honest with you,’ Harris said.

Really? Her first thought wasn’t that she might become the first female president, if only she could outfox doubters like Barack Obama and Nancy Pelosi?

Harris has burst onto the campaign trail glowing — levitating with ‘joy’, if you will — leaping over Biden’s still-warm body to grab that nomination.

As for her boss’s mental acuity, going right out and defending his performance after that catastrophic debate? Calling Biden ‘extraordinarily strong’?

Harris has no regrets, none at all.

‘He has the intelligence, the commitment, and the judgement and the disposition that I think the American people rightly deserve in their president.’

If by ‘disposition’ she means Biden in literal corpse pose on Rehoboth Beach, sure.

Walz, sitting uselessly by like a phantom limb, doubled down on the lies he’s already told.

If this otherwise pointless interview proved one thing, it’s that Harris clearly saw a fellow traveller in Walz: a shameless prevaricator and a fraud who will say anything.

On lying about serving in combat, despite demands from veterans to stop: ‘My grammar’s not always correct.’

Walz is a former teacher!

‘I’ll never demean another’s service,’ he said, employing a classic manipulation tactic known as DARVO: deny, attack, and reverse victim and offender.

Finally: ‘I think people know who I am.’

I’m sorry — America just met you, Tim Walz. We have no idea who you are, but what we’re learning isn’t great.

Especially as these apparent lies Walz tells — he fought in ‘war’, he and his wife used IVF, he was given an award from the Nebraska Chamber of Commerce — feel increasingly creepy.

Mark my words: There are likely more and bigger lies to be revealed. If Walz had an ‘R’ after his name, as George Santos did, the media would be all over this.

As Harris and Walz sat in this most depressing, unpresidential setting — an empty restaurant in Savannah, surrounded by cheap black furniture — the vacuity of this enterprise infuriated. Bash just let Harris slip and slide, with zero specifics.

On Israel: ‘We have to get a deal done,’ Harris said, because that ‘will unlock so much of what happens next.’

Yes. That’s how things typically work: One action leads to another. Thank God we have Kamala to elucidate this for us.

On illegal immigration: The numbers, she said, ‘have actually reduced’. Tell that to major American cities struggling to absorb the constant influx.

On reversing her position on fracking: ‘My values have not changed.’

If this otherwise pointless interview proved one thing, it’s that Harris clearly saw a fellow traveller in Walz: a shameless prevaricator and a fraud who will say anything.

Harris is incapable of articulating her thought processes because they don’t exist. She cannot speak extemporaneously. She has no intellectual reservoir, no internal editor, no cogent line of reasoning.

Take this answer on climate change: ‘I have always believed — and I have worked on it — that the climate crisis is real, that it is an urgent matter to which we should apply metrics that include holding ourselves to deadlines around time.’

Deadlines around time!

Perhaps she can explain how time works regarding her ‘new way forward [to] turn the page on the last decade’ — when that decade, as Bash helpfully pointed out, includes her last three-and-a-half years in office.

‘I’m talking about an era that started about a decade ago,’ Harris said.

This is the circular logic and circumlocution of the intellectually inferior — of someone who is dumb trying to sound smart.

Asked why she should be president, she said: ‘I believe that I am the best person to do this job.’

In an interview where Harris was unclear on nearly everything, one fact came into sharp focus: she is quantitatively not the best person for this job.
