On top of the vice president’s dismal performance, the optics and staging of CNN’s Kamala Harris interview are taking a beating.
The criticism, which is all valid, comes down to this…
- A bizarrely dark location.
- A messy location with scattered coffee cups.
- Kamala in a gray suit in a dark location.
- Kamala’s Stolen Valor Support Liar Tim Walz towers over Kamala, who looks like a child.
- CNNLOL’s Dana Bash towers over Kamala.
- Kamala is furthest from the camera and looks like she brought her dad to a job interview.
- Kamala looks tinier than she is, as if she is barely able to get her elbows on the table.
- Kamala looks like a little kid at the grown-up table.
- Simply not presidential.
- Tim Walz looks like a lawyer or chaperone.
Add to that a disastrous interview performance, which Breitbart News has already covered in-depth, and what you have is a total whiff by the Harris campaign.
To me, she looked small, frightened, and timid.
And you know the campaign chose this dark and empty location.
Kamala needs to look presidential and in command. Optics matter in presidential politics. You can laugh and argue that’s a shallow way to choose a president, but I would argue that knowing how to stage optics or hiring people who know how to stage optics is a reflection of the candidate’s competency.
