SiriusXM’s Megyn Kelly criticized Vice President Kamala Harris’ campaign team on her podcast Thursday, accusing them of not being able to “train” them to provide substantive answers at a CNN town hall event. .
Harris appeared on stage Wednesday night with CNN’s Anderson Cooper and faced backlash for her word salad and vague responses. On “The Megyn Kelly Show,” the host noted that Harris’ team seemed to be “working on her style,” but quickly unraveled when asked about actual policy questions.
“At first she said OK, but I just thought she kept getting distracted and didn’t answer. So he was clearly asking her, ‘You can’t do both. You can’t both try to pass a law through Congress and issue an executive order.” There is no answer,” Kelly said. …And that’s because they may have strengthened Kamala Harris’ influence at least as much as they would have unleashed in an event like this. But they did nothing with the substance. They cannot train or educate her about the essentials, the real problems facing America, and possible policy solutions. ”
“The main problem we want the president to help solve is about policy. It’s about policy. It’s not about their influence. How great is it that they have 11% inflation? We don’t care if the voice is annoying or pleasant to hear. We want to reduce inflation. It doesn’t matter to us what we want is a real answer as to why they haven’t done anything about this for three and a half years. Something that could be swallowed up as something powerful. So they focused everything on how it looked and didn’t pay any attention to what was going on underneath,” Kelly continued.

“Somebody please work with her! Tell her! Give her an answer as to why the immigration issue hasn’t been resolved for three and a half years – someone! Is it the team’s fault or is it her fault? I don’t know. I mean, what I hear is, it’s a very smart team. I know David Plouffe is very smart. I’ve known him for years. – he [been] I’ve been on my show for over 10 years,” Kelly said. “We don’t know, but we know that kind of window dressing doesn’t work. That’s why the poll numbers are what we discussed at the beginning of the show.”
