RawStory: Dems rave over Harris interview: 'Best she's done' since 'ripping' Trump apart at debate

RawStory - Dems rave over Harris interview: 'Best she's done' since 'ripping' Trump apart at debate

Kamala Harris’ wide-ranging interview Tuesday with radio host Charlamagne Tha God received instant praise from analysts and others on social media who called it “magnificent” and “very, very impressive.”

“Black men should take a victory lap right now,” Jamal Simmons, co-host of the TrailBlaze podcast, told CNN anchor Wolf Blitzer.

Harris spent the hourlong interview with the popular Black radio host, dubbed an audio town hall, criticizing former President Donald Trump, answering questions from the host and listeners, and laying out her vision for the Black community.

“She did a terrific job in talking to that audience and answering the questions that she was asked,” CNN analyst Gloria Borger said. “Which, if you look at Donald Trump’s performance today at the Economic Club in Chicago, is just the opposite of what he did.”

She is actually going out there and talking to different constituent groups. Large groups, sure, but going and talking to black men, black women, Asian voters, military voters and their families, unions, young people, economic groups.

This is how she builds her base AND gets new support on board.

She's been about building broad, diverse coalitions ever since her first run for elected office.

They should hear what I am listening to right now.

This unity rally with the Republicans is masterful, especially since she means it.

I will say I don't frequent 'Raw Story' any more. Too much spam and click bait articles but this was a good one. Kudos to you.
