EXCERPT:
ROTHMAN: “That said, I thought this was an awful interview for Kamala Harris. She does this thing where she sets off in a directionless pursuit of a thought worthy of expression and then eventually finds it. But she spends those first minutes, minute or two, sort of stumbling her way towards something that is a concrete defense of herself, her interests, her policies. In particular, one question about inflation, which is the biggest issue this cycle, price instability. Her one idea is to go after price gougers, as she says. How do you defend that, she says? She doesn’t defend it. She rather she backs off and says I’m never going to apologize for my — for going after people who price gouged, you know, desperate consumers. Nobody asked you to apologize.”
