At Wednesday’s town hall meeting, CNN’s Dana Bash cautioned that those who were undecided felt that Vice President Kamala Harris had not “closed the deal,” and she concurred that the Democratic candidate had not “necessarily” responded to inquiries “about her legislative priorities.”
Harris responded to inquiries from CNN anchor Anderson Cooper and undecided voters over immigration and the economy during a town hall in a swing state, Pennsylvania.
The embarrassing moment that was captured on camera just after the town hall was when Harris left the stage and confronted a woman who had asked a question during the session.
The strange scene was captured by the cameras as they were cutting away from the event and getting ready to broadcast CNN’s Dana Bash and Jake Tapper, who weren’t too happy with Harris’s performance on Wednesday night.
WATCH: Following the event, Bash started her discussion with Tapper by summarizing what she had learned from witnesses.
“Well, I’ll just tell you what I’m hearing from people who I have been talking to,” Bash said. “They’re not sure she did that if her goal was to close the deal.” Additionally, others have questioned whether she is being held to a different standard. Perhaps. However, that may be the world she lives in. People are also becoming a little more aware of the question of who she is.
“But what will she do?” she went on. There was not a single response to the query concerning her legislative priorities. You know, not necessarily the answers there, but more of her attitude and her character questions about your shortcomings or faults.
Cooper’s questioning of Harris on why, in her nearly four years in government, she had not put any of her own ideas or programs into action was another cruel moment.
However, some people would wonder, “You’ve been in the White House for four years, but you were vice president, not president,” Cooper said. However, why hasn’t any of that been completed in the last four years?
“Well, a lot was done, but there’s still more to do, Anderson,” Harris retorted. And I’m highlighting tasks that haven’t been completed but must be completed.
Watch as Harris’s team expresses concern over the “blue wall” states of Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Wisconsin—which have served as the route to the White House in recent elections.
Additionally, Harris’s group is concerned that North Carolina has “slipped away.”

“Recent conversations have focused on the potential for an aberration this year where only a portion of the blue wall breaks. Three people with knowledge of the campaign’s strategy told NBC News that the discussions have centered on whether Michigan or Wisconsin “fall” to former President Donald Trump while the other two states turn blue.
Even if Harris wins Pennsylvania, where she and Trump have invested the most time and money, she would not receive the 270 electoral votes required to win the White House without winning another battleground state, if not two, if she loses Wisconsin or Michigan, the outlet continued.
A senior Harris campaign official emphasized that Michigan is the main cause for concern, saying, “There has been a thought that maybe Michigan or Wisconsin will fall off.”
Michigan was a major issue for two other campaign strategists, who, like others in this article, were allowed to speak freely without being identified. They still think that there are other ways to win and that every state is close.
Regarding North Carolina, the Harris campaign official stated, “That one seems to be slipping away a little bit out of all of the seven [states].”
