Bret Baier: 4 Kamala Harris Staffers Frantically 'Waving Their Hands' Forced Me to 'Dismount' at End of Interview
Western Journal ^ | October 17, 2024 | Jack Davis

Posted on 10/17/2024 5:43:20 PM PDT by george76

A word-wrestling confrontation that marked the end of Bret Baier’s Fox News interview with Kamala Harris was cut short by her staff, Baier said after the interview.

Baier was pressing Harris about her position on the Middle East as he indicated he was being told that the interview had reached its end.

“They’re giving me a hard wrap here,” Baier said at the end of the testy exchange with Harris,

...

“I’m talking to like four people, waving their hands like, ‘It’s gotta stop!” Baier said

...

“I had to dismount there, at the end,” he said.

...

The ending capped an evening in which Baier believed Harris and her team brought gamesmanship to the interview

...

“It was a little tense. We were given the time of 5 p.m. ET. Obviously my show is at 6 p.m. They wanted to tape at 5 p.m.,” he said.

“We said we were going to tape as live, in other words roll the tape and just turn that around unedited, uninterrupted, but we had to do it before 5:15, otherwise we couldn’t turn the whole machine around before the top of the 6 p.m. show,” .

...

So we were waiting at 4:55, and then 5:00, and 5:05 and 5:10,....

“At 5:17 the vice president walked out, so it did feel a little bit like they were icing the kicker ... referring to a football strategy of trying to deliberately keep an opposing team’s kicker waiting for a big field goal attempt.

...

She came to Fox News, and she wanted to go after Donald Trump — [a] viral moment that plays on a lot of other channels and on social media. And I think she may have gotten that,” he said.

Why didn’t they just unplug Global Bot 6669 and roll her away from the camera?

Oh yeah, totally. Actually, my view is that regardless of who wins the election, the next 4 years (and possibly the next decade or far more) is only going to get worse and worse. UNLESS a true statesman (regardless of Party) emerges, steps forward, and somehow brings our extremely divided nation together. I hope that happens but I have serious doubts it ever will.

Unless someone like that eventually emerges, the division in this country will continue to worsen. We're at the point now where Republicans say kamaLa is a communist/fascist/socialist (I'm one of those who say that, that there's no question about it) while Democrats say Trump is Hitler (which I think is an absolutely nonsensical claim). Those are serious charges against both parties and I don't see that dynamic changing anytime soon.

Add to that the fact that a growing number of Republicans (actually RINOs such as Dick Cheney) are "endorsing" kommieLa. And Democrats such as Robert F. Kennedy Jr and Tulsi Gabbard are endorsing President Trump. It's only going to get even more confusing as we move from this election to the next and the next.

Sorry to sound so pessimistic but it seems clear to me ... except the part about a true statesman someday emerging to bring our nation together. OTOH, maybe after President Trump's second term, the insane Democrats will be cured of their TDS. But by 2028, they'll probably develop a new severe case of VDS (Vance Derangement Syndrome). Who knows.

A future American division will be totally different than the Civil War because Republicans & Democrats are inter-mixed among each other in every state, county, city, town, local neighborhood, and even within probably most families across the nation.

If we see a repeat of 2020, I predict that all bets are off.

If anything like that happens again there will be nothing left to lose. I don’t know what people think they are preserving by sitting back and letting this tyranny swallow the entire country. It’s just cowardice. The founders of this nation would have launched a second revolution long before this point.

While attending Westmount HS in Montreal, while mama taught at McGill Univ, Kommie-la learned to enjoy the Royal Canadian MOUNTED Police, especially their 'Musical Ride'. She learned much from the 'Musical Ride', that held her in 'good standing' with Downtown Willie Brown, in later years in San Francisco.

The Mounties' version of the 'Musical Ride' (which may differ from Kommie-la's interpretation of a 'Musical Ride'.

But they are gone - we are left.

What will WE do about it?
Were we left with any instructions??


 
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal,
 that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights,
 that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--
 
That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men,
 deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --
 
That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends,
 it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government,
 laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form,
 as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.
 
Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes;
 and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable,
 than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed.
 
But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design
 to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government,
 and to provide new Guards for their future security.--
 
Such has been the patient sufferance of these Colonies;
 and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government.
 
The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations,
 all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States.
 
To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid world.

Intermixed.
Like Arkansas during 1861, only more people have guns.

Sounds familiar...

Luke 12:53 King James Bible

The father shall be divided against the son, and the son against the father; the mother against the daughter, and the daughter against the mother; the mother in law against her daughter in law, and the daughter in law against her mother in law.

I see we joined about the same time. I've been asking this very question since before my time on FR.

I'm now 62. Four lower back surgeries, three knee surgeries and more broken & surgically repaired bones than I care to list here, I'm still ready, willing, able --- and waiting to go.

If the Democrats manage to steal this election, our country is lost. Then what?

How long are men of good character going to sit on our asses?
