It seems like Harris is happy with how the interview went but I'm seeing negative coverage too. I wonder what viewers open to changing their minds actually thought.
I knew that article from the Hill read like it was dripping with loaded words and bias so I checked out the author Becket Adams and found this:
"The National Journalism Center (NJC) is an American conservative political organization established in 1977 by conservative journalist M. Stanton Evans. Its president is Scott Walker, former Republican governor of Wisconsin, who is also president of Young America's Foundation. The current program director is Becket Adams, who has written for conservative publications including the Washington Examiner and the National Review.[1] The NJC runs programs and internships for journalism students to educate them on professional journalism and conservative political issues and values."
He's a conservative, of course he's going to shit on her parade. If my memory serves, Scott Walker is also a piece of shit.

Scott Walker is a huge piece of shit
Let me tell you something, folks. Scott Walker, he's like a giant, stinking pile of shit. It's unbelievable. Nobody's seen anything like it before. You walk past it, and you know it's bad right away. Everyone says it. People are talking about it. It’s huge, just sitting there, doing nothing, and it stinks—worse than anyone thought. And guess what? He thinks it’s good! Can you believe it? He’s out there, pretending like everything’s fine, while people can’t even stand to be around him. Total disaster, folks. Total mess. We’re going to clean it up, because that’s what we do. We clean up the mess left by people like Scott Walker, the human pile of shit. Believe me.
Didn't he sell all of Wisconsin's public power plants for pennies on the dollar?
I live in Wisconsin, and I can assure you Scott Walker is a gigantic piece of shit.
That's all correct, but wasn't Harris's goal to appeal to conservatives?
I didn't find the article particularly convincing because there's a clear answer to the question of why Harris defended Biden's mental acuity, everyone knows it, but Harris can't admit it explicitly. No one wanted to be the first person to say that the emperor had no clothes.
Yes, but what I'm saying is his take is going to be slanted on purpose. He isn't trying to have an objective take on her performance, he's going to write an article trying to make her look as bad as possible.
I'd rather know what johnny conservative thought of his own mind, rather than someone with the goal of making you not like her but johnny conservative doesn't have a media outlet I suppose lol
If you want to know what Johnny Conservative thinks, just go read the Fox news YouTube comment section for insightful comments like "MAGA!!!" and "TRUMP2024!!" and "lolol word salad Hahaha ha she didn't know the number!!!"
These people are not well.
Unfortunately very true lol
That's a good point. He does seem like he would probably write this sort of article as part of his political agenda regardless of what he sincerely believed. Thus the existence of the article provides almost no information about what conservative voters might actually be thinking.
If it is in The Hill you should always be looking for issues like this, they publish a lot of crap written by crap people who aren't trustworthy and have an agenda.
well of course she is not going to convince someone whose source of living is being conservative propagandist...
the question is whether or not she had a chance to convince even 1% of normal conservative voters.
"Becket Adams is a columnist for National Review, the Washington Examiner, and the Hill. He is also the program director of the National Journalism Center."
Greasy smarmy conservative creep thinks Democrat didn't do well, news at 11
