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.
