CNN getting BLASTED on their own channel. Brutal!! 😂

But this is what happens when you pass off total TRASH as real journalism.

[lenymitchell]

This is honestly absurd. They ask her a question, and then a bunch of talking heads tell us how to feel about it. This is straight propaganda. Clearly. We are not fooled by you.

[MALattin]

I remembered when CNN USED to he a news channel. Now they're a politcal ally

[jaydeecee]

Imagine CNN coddling a candidate for the leader of the free world.

[jennyeidson]

TO BE EXPECTED! CNN chopped edited this interview to pieces.

[Faridehbj]

My takeaway of this interview is that Harris is not changing her values she just changing her words to get what she wants.

[twinsprofile]

CNN wasn’t confident about the interview 😂😂😂😂

[RemoteViewer]

"81 million votes".. "The MOST votes EVER".. "Bat Soup".. "TRUST THE SCIENCE"

[DerrickLoud]

At this point I just feel like the us government is doing a remedial test on us all

[Jjj-gsmb]

She agreed and signed off to everything by being the last vote
That’s her record
The deciding tie breaking vote
Keep that message man
She signed off to Biden !!

[stevetaylor]

If CNN didn't look bad before this is surely the icing on the cake that use to cost $10 but now costs $25.

[thelugoffgamecock]

At this point American Propaganda far surpassed anything The North Koreans have put forth

[imjustamerican]

CNN laying down the red carpet for Harris to walk right into the White House

[Ntree]

She's been in office for the passage of time for 3.5 yrs. She should be bosting on what she has done for 3.5 yrs vs what she will do if elected. However, she cannot do that because she had done nothing as VP!

[LuismedinaDJ]

CNN has balls for posting such a garbage interview truly impressive

[RemoteViewer]

Just 2 months ago CNN said Joe was "fit as a fiddle" and "running circles" around his staff.. 😂

[charlespolanco]

She needs to do more interviews outside of CNN.

[efcgxyc]

What is going on? America is 68 days from the election, and right now, the best/most we have out of Harris is the fact that nobody wanted her when she ran gor president, and she's given multiple answers to simple questions.

[lltheFacell]

Everything is fucking "historic" with these ridiculous people

[Andykibe]

People do not want to hear about CNN anymore
