On September 19, 2024, Kamala Harris had an interview with Oprah Winfrey that was like a virtual rally during which she spoke on some issues. According to CNBC TV 18, around 300,000 viewers tuned into the 90-minute livestreamed event. Stars like Julia Roberts, Meryl Streep, and Chris Rock, among others, were also a part of the rally.

However, the interview has drawn some criticism. Some viewers felt that Harris gave non-related answers that didn’t seem to fit Winfrey’s questions. Trump supporters were quick to dismiss her answers as being part of her “word salad.” They felt that Harris couldn’t give straight answers to straightforward questions.

The real criticism came when eagle-eyed netizens spotted something in the background: a teleprompter. Netizens and Trump fans immediately came out online with the narrative that using a teleprompter is proof that Harris can’t handle unscripted interviews. 

These revelations led Trump fans to accuse Harris of being insincere when she agreed to the interview because she completely depended on the teleprompter. According to them, it also proved even more that she couldn’t handle the responsibilities of the presidency.

As Trump’s fans had a few things to say about the Harris-Winfrey interview, the former president also went to his social media Truth Social, where he claimed that Winfrey seemed so uncomfortable during the interview. He wrote,

A long time ago, Oprah Winfrey asked me to do her last Network Television Show. The final week of her show was a big deal, and it was my honor, with my family, to do it.

When I watched her interview yesterday with a woman who is destroying, through her complete and total incompetence, America, I couldn’t help but think this isn’t the real Oprah, this isn’t a person that wants millions of people, from prisons and mental institutions, and terrorists, drug dealers, and human traffickers, from all over the World, pouring into our Country.

Kamala looked really foolish, couldn’t answer the simplest of questions on Inflation, the Cost of Goods, or our very porous and dangerous Border – No leader there, and Oprah just wanted to crawl under a table! Comrade Kamala Harris is mentally unfit to be President. She knows it, and so does everyone else!

Moreover, it is not only Trump who started raising questions about her performance. Body language specialist Carole Lieberman spoke out to New York Post and noted that Harris looks “anxious” whenever she faces questioning.

Harris’ campaign team may not fully understand the psychological roots for why she [is] so anxious not to be ‘found out,’ but they see the symptoms and have figured out that the less we see of them, the better.

This assessment adds fuel to the fire regarding Harris’ readiness to be the president. Even the tiniest aspects are judged in the presidential campaign. As DEM and GOP continue to trade punches, it becomes obvious that the path to the White House in 2024 won’t be easy.
