The announcement that Vice President Kamala Harris’ first formal sit-down interview as a 2024 presidential candidate would be done with her running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, by her side was met with mockery online.CNN revealed Tuesday Dana Bash would be taping a joint interview with Harris and Walz as they campaign in Georgia on Thursday to be broadcast that night.
It will mark the first time Harris has given a formal interview to the press since President Biden stepped out of the race and she became the nominee 38 days ago.
However, the news that Harris’ first interview would be alongside Walz, and with a sympathetic host and network, was seen as an admission that the vice president infamous for her word salads is "incapable" of doing an extended media appearance on her own.
