The Facts

In her first interview with Fox News on Wednesday, Democratic presidential nominee and US Vice Pres. Kamala Harris claimed that her prospective administration would "not be a continuation of Joe Biden's presidency."
During the interview, conducted by Fox News host Bret Baier, Harris stated that "like every new president" she would present "fresh and new ideas," as the nominee labeled herself as representing a "new generation of leadership."

The Spin

Democratic narrative

Bret Baier is supposed to be Fox News' most objective and fair reporter, but this time around he chose to be combative rather than journalistic. Despite the fact that he peddled false Republican talking points, Harris remained focused on contrasting her positive vision for the future with Trump's public promises to target his political opponents. With polls showing this to be a tight race, exposing this contrast will only be in Harris' favor.

Republican narrative

Harris's painful interview with Fox is a reminder to all Americans that, despite the Democrats' best attempts, the last three and a half years cannot be forgotten. Unable to provide any substance as to why her administration would be any different and still not providing important context about Biden's cognitive state, it would be foolish to believe that the White House would be any better under Harris.
