Kamala Harris ’ interview with Fox News Channel’s Bret Baier on Wednesday is the latest indication that Democrats during this campaign are increasingly willing to engage with a network well-stocked with supporters of opponent Donald Trump.
Since the party’s convention in August, roughly twice as many Democrats have been on Fox than during the same period in President Joe Biden’s 2020 campaign, which itself was more often than when Hillary Clinton was the nominee in 2016, according to the network.
Whether to ignore Fox or seize opportunities to change the viewpoints of some audience members has long been a subject of internal debate among Democrats. Biden didn’t make a Fox-specific appearance during his campaign. Clinton made one appearance during her primary campaign and another in mid-summer 2016.
“The vice president, Governor Walz and our campaign believe it is important to speak to all Americans, wherever they are getting their information or entertainment, so they can hear directly from us — not through a filter — who Vice President Harris is, what she stands for and what she’s running to do,” said Ian Sams, Harris campaign spokesman.

Rather than pledge to stop supporting genocide to win the votes of people who can’t stomach the daily carnage, she is courting Trump’s base on Fox News and touting endorsements from architects of the Iraq War.

Yarp just sitting with my ballot waiting for her to commit. its a shame really. the MIC may result in the end of american democracy.
You really think Trump would do a better job? Really??
Lets see… harris won’t get my vote beccause shes throwing a minority group under the genocidal bus (among a laundry list of other labor issues) and trump also likes to through minority groups under genocidal bus (along with a train load of other issues). yes, I definitely think trump would do a better job… I think you need to work on your reasoning abilities.
I want people to show up and vote regardless of who they support for president. if genocide is there line in the sand like it is mine then all the more reason to get them to go and not check harris but likely check all the down ballot candidate. The fact harris is failing as a candidate isnt my or their fault. its hers and her useless platform. her job is to get votes if she can’t convince people thats on her. I’ve let her and my critters know whats okay and whats absolutely not okay. now she gets to make her decision on her move.
if she loses thats her fault. not yours, not mine, not anyone who showed up and checked their boxes. Now I need to go and remind my critters since its monday, as ive been doing every work day this month, that genocide is not okay and I know where each of them stands on it and what I expect them to do.
