‘I Would Love An Answer’: Faulkner Asks Dem Guest Point-Blank If His Party Is Actually Accepting Drubbing With Grace

Fox News host Harris Faulkner on Friday cut off a Democratic guest who listed key points instead of saying how Democrats handled Vice President Kamala Harris’ loss.

Former President Donald Trump secured the 270 electoral votes needed to take office early Wednesday morning, and as of Friday afternoon, Republicans had gained four seats in the Senate, giving them an advantage in holding the House. Faulkner asked Brad Howard, founder of the lobbying firm Corcoran Street Group, if Democrats would “lose cleanly.” (Related article: Joy Reid slams ‘white women’ who didn’t support Kamala Harris)

“I think the vice president certainly lost cleanly,” Howard argued. “That speech was an incredible speech. Even if she conceded this fight, it was the right thing for her to concede and we are not going to concede this fight. I think it reminded people: “I think this fight is for a vision of America that we believe in.”

“Okay, Brad, I don’t need her to say anything, but I want you to answer that question,” Faulkner replied. “What you’re saying is she took the high road. They didn’t follow her on it. What’s going on inside the party?”

Harris conceded the election in a speech at Howard University on Wednesday afternoon.

“There’s a lot of soul searching going on and everyone is looking for blame. This is not the time to place blame, this is the time to figure out what went wrong,” Howard said. “It’s not the voters’ responsibility to come to us, it’s our responsibility to go to them, and the voters don’t like where we are or where we’re going, so we fix it. The reason we lost is not a special problem. When we lose every conceivable sub-demographic, it becomes a big, big problem… It’s just an overall problem, and we’ve lost it. It needs to be resolved.” (Click here to watch the Daily Caller documentary “Cleaning Up Kamala”)

Faulkner responded, “In some cases, your party seems to be considering blaming voters.As you pointed out, instead of blaming voters, I would like you to interview them.”
