In case CNN doesn’t know what to ask Kamala Harris, Rick Scott has some suggestions

'Will they force her to tell the truth?'

U.S. Rick Scott’s re-election campaign is weighing in on CNN’s interview with Vice President Kamala Harris, her first major sit-down since becomes the Democratic nominee for President.

“Will Dana Bash and CNN be willing to ask the questions Americans care about? Will Kamala be honest?” read a release from the Scott campaign.

The release went on to pose some questions the Scott team wants answered.

“Why is she flipping on major policy positions like building a border wall and Medicare for All? Why did she lie about the deterioration of Joe Biden? Does she condemn Tim Walz lying about his military record? Does she believe as Vice President she’s at all responsible for our out-of-control inflation, open border, and chaos at home and around the world? Does she believe that while she’s running for President, she can continue to hide from the American people and refuse to do press conferences?”

Scott’s campaign has more potential questions, assuming Bash wants to use them.

“Why is she refusing to recognize Edmundo González as the President-Elect of Venezuela? Why won’t she call out the pro-Hamas, terrorist-sympathizing wing of her party? And why does she continue to refuse to endorse Debbie Mucarsel-Powell, even though Joe Biden has endorsed her?”

A spokesman for the Senator put the questions into context.

“Kamala Harris is a fraud who wants to convince the American people she’s qualified to be President while also claiming she had nothing to do with all the damage she and Joe Biden did to our country,” asserted Will Hampson, who then alluded to the fact that the sit-down is a co-interview with running mate Walz.

“While we are disappointed CNN didn’t insist she take a one-on-one interview, we hope they will ask her the pressing questions Americans care about, like her socialist record and her failures as VP. Will they force her to tell the truth, and is she willing to admit the damage she and Joe Biden have done? We’ll see.”

    Well it’s a taped interview first of all. Kammy bringing her coach just in case Bash decides to ask tough questions. Highly unlikely. Then of course before any of us see this it will be highly edited. Come on Kammy what are you afraid of? We want word salad! 🤣

        Come on TJC. You know that’s what is going to happen. This is Joe Biden coverup part 2. If I’m wrong then do it live. She won’t and she is incapable. That’s the facts

            We’re hearing more and more desperation from one of the last standing MAGAs on this site. Few facts and much invective.

          This is actually what you call a disciplined candidate with a well run campaign, Compare that to the other guy and tell me who you think has the best chance of winning, I’m sure you’d be happy if she said something stupid, pretty much like trump does every time he opens his mouth, so you could beat her over the head with it but if she keeps playing it smart, she’ll win and that’s the objective here.

      Here’s how the electorate will eventually synthesize their voting decisions in the 2024 election:
      1. The Harris Walz team are better role models for America’s young people.
      2. The Harris Walz team are better human beings and will make all decisions with more human interest and compassion than the Trump team could ever imagine.

    Tricky Rlcky still hasn’t answered the biggest question of his life: How were you as founder and CEO of Columbia/HCA able to walk away from the biggest Medicare fraud case in U.S. history — wherein your company stole billions from American taxpayers — and why were you given millions of dollars to retire and play dumb?
    That’s it, just the one question.

    What about Medicare fraud? What about gutting Florida’s growth management laws? What about gutting Florida’s water management districts? What about gaming Florida’s unemployment claim system? It seems you have a lot to answer for before you pose questions to anyone else.

    Question 1, how do you keep Medicare funded when former physicians, now Senators defraud the program?
