another thing that she was asked about a flip-flopping position was fracking she's also had a changing stance on immigration do you think that she answered either of those questions sufficiently because we know fracking is a huge issue in Pennsylvania and Pennsylvania will be a must win for her and obviously immigration is one of the top issues facing the country well her answer on fracking was dishonest she said I've never you know uh she she tried to pretend that she wasn't on record against fracking by the way when any politician says uh I've been perfectly clear that it means they haven't been it when they say to be honest what are they referring to about their previous answers were those dishonest she she's saying I uh I've always been uh uh in favor of a fracking just just look at the record well look at the record she was very clear not just once but repeatedly and um so I thought she was in uh I thought that was a a problem and should have been uh pressed but but but her answer is kind of now on the record on immigration she's um she's right to press Trump for helping kill a compromise bill but the correct response by the interviewer to press that is we have something like between eight and 10 million people who've entered the country illegally during the Biden Harris Administration almost all of those entered illegal During the period before this compromise bill so you might be right that there was a partial solution going forward but how do you explain the fact that your Administration and what you and your role in it uh allowed this many people into the country and now your Administration is pushing for ways to let them all become voters going forward so there's a lot to press there and Dana Bash just let it all uh hang out without any really serious followup so I again I thought KLA Harris is being a professional she's getting away with uh Twist and Shout um but um but but that's what that's her job she's she's a politician she's not necessarily going to tell you the truth she's going to give you the most uh effective answer by the way I want to say one thing about energy costs because she's a big green New Deal person and there are two issues that could have been pressed there one is that Detroit is going bankrupt over these EV mandates and she hasn't changed her position that she's moving uh toward a a a future where there will be no internal combustion cars at all okay and Detroit is losing huge amounts so she needs to be able to defend that to the voters in Michigan and the second thing is that uh they're essentially their anti- uh fossil fuels um apprach has revved up the price of gasoline and a lot of the cost in a grocery she's all in favor of squeezing out these uh this price gouging she can't Define what price gouging is but she's in favor she's against it Whatever It Is graell marks had a song Whatever it is I'm against it well that's her position but moving a can of soup uh from uh from the uh uh tomatoes in the in the field to the Campbell's Factory and then putting it in making a can putting it in the can and moving that can to the supermarket entails a lot of fuel and so part of the cost that the consumers are feeling is the cost uh of all those 18 wheelers on the high way paying more for their gas
