The average American doesn’t care about what Kamala Harris has to say, apparently…
During a recent interview with CNN’s Jim Acosta, Kamala Harris’ campaign advisor Keisha Lance Bottoms said that only “insiders” and members of the press care that the presidential candidate isn’t doing interviews.
Harris has not spoken to the press or done an interview in 35 days.
“I believe this is only an insider conversation. Obviously, those in the media may want to see her doing the interview, and insiders are talking about her sitting down to do an interview. But I can tell you, in the hundreds of people that I’ve talked to about this campaign, not one person has mentioned having a care about whether or not she sits down to do an interview, and I do believe that will happen in due time,” Bottoms said. “But what we have seen from Kamala Harris, what we saw during the convention last week was someone who’s very much in command, someone who is ready to lead, someone who’s been leading.”

Democratic strategist James Carville was equally dismissive of calls for Kamala to sit down for an interview; he appeared on CUOMO this week.
“Come on, man. July the 21st, in that time, she had to put a convention together. She had to pick a vice president. They had to put a campaign together. They had to merge two campaigns together. Where is it written that in the first five weeks of the campaign, you have to do a long-form interview? That’s just a made-up thing,” Carville responded. “That’s absurd. She’s been quite busy and has done quite well. And she’s got more things to do than sit around and wait around and do a long-form interview, of which after you do it, the press is going to forget about it anyway.”
