Harris was reportedly prepped for border question, making her answer 'all the more unnerving' to allies

Vice President Kamala Harris has been facing criticism over her response to a border question on her first foreign trip, and according to a new report, the fact that she was prepared for it is "all the more unnerving" to allies.

Harris during her recent trip to Guatemala and Mexico was questioned by NBC News' Lester Holt about why she hasn't visited the southern border, and when Holt pointed out that she hasn't done so, she said, "And I haven't been to Europe. I don't understand the point that you're making." Last week, The Hill reported that her comments "left almost everyone shaking their heads inside and outside the White House."

On Monday, CNN reported that Harris "had been prepped extensively by her team ahead of her first foreign trip, including for the question that tripped her up" about visiting the border. "The prep made her answer - pointing out that she had also not yet been to Europe - all the more unnerving to allies and administration officials, who were perplexed and concerned that the answers would overshadow an otherwise successful first foreign trip," CNN writes.

Harris reportedly participated in "a wide-ranging media training session" in April, but CNN writes that allies and former aides of the vice president saw her stumble on the border question as being "part of a broader pattern of messaging challenges" that she has faced going back to her presidential campaign.

I get what you’re saying and agree. But, at the end of the day Biden is a 78-year old male with a personal and familial history of brain disease (Biden has had two brain surgeries already...that we know of). And, he’s a frail 78 who is already exhibiting clear signs of cognitive decline.

For people like this, the ‘spiral’ can come fast & furious. He could easily get to a state that even with a very friendly media, he simply can’t fake it anymore.

The fact that this woman, who rose to a position of power because she was willing to trade her body for it, should scare every right thinking person in America to the core.

She doesn’t think she needs to learn or know anything; and she apparently takes nothing seriously.

She thinks that just being Kamala with the cutesy cackle should be enough for anyone.

I guess that’s what you believe when you’re allowed to get to the ‘top’ on your back and knees...

She’s a moron as is whoever it is that’s really running the Biden clown show. Why doesn’t this stupid, annoying woman just GO TO THE BORDER already?

When even the gays at the gay pride parade are asking you this, it’s time. JUST GO ALREADY.

And, when you get there, just keep going. Go to Mexico. Remain in Mexico. Don’t come back.

“...she might actually be worse than Dementia Joe - both cognitively and purely from a public approval standpoint...”

Cognitively, no certainly not. I’m sure she’s “smarter” that Joe, and she’s clearly not impaired. She’s a moron but she’s not imcompetent by any stretch.

Public approval-wise, that’s another story. She’s not a bad looking woman, but personality-wise she’s repulsive. Also, when you consider the things she’s done in her life and career, she’s repulsive. Joe Biden is just not repulsive, the good Lord gave him a soupcon of Irish charm and it’s sufficient.

I think she is arrogant, entitled, pampered and stupid. She has never been asked to do anything hard. We need to find a way to remove her from office before it’s too late.

Biden steps down or his own party forces him out.
Democrats,in particular pelosi,who never cared that ibama was not eligible suddenly care that Harris is not eligible.
And of course the media will concur.
And pelosi becomes president.

She’s damn near 60 and has been a moron her entire life. That’s not going to change no matter how much they prep her. That nervous cackle is also a tell. She caves under pressure which will only compound her issues.

When she can't suck or screw her way out of a situation, she is stuck.

Maybe it was supposed to be a softball question disguised as a tough question so she could knock it out of the park.


I’m thinking that Lester worded the question wrong and will now have to watch his six.

In my best Jon Lovitz voice "Uhhhh yeah, that's the ticket"

No amount of medication or wishful thinking is going to save the human vegetable known as Biden.

He's a prime candidate for a stroke. Dementia destroys brain tissue. When enough of it has atrophied it endangers what's left and *bam*, a stroke. I pray all the time that this happens to Biden. I hate him that much.
