In a disastrous interview with Telemundo, Vice President Kamala Harris left viewers stunned as she struggled to articulate her immigration policy. Harris, who reportedly skipped key campaign events to prepare for this interview, became a stumbling, incoherent mess when pressed on the lack of Democratic action on immigration reform.
During the interview, Telemundo challenged her: “There’s no Democrat talking about a pathway to citizenship, an immigration relief…” Harris, visibly flustered, responded with, “Oh, but there’s no question that uh migrants bring. America is a country that is is, was built in part by immigrants.”
Telemundo pressed further, stating, “Right now no Democrats are talking about a pathway to citizenship.” In response, Harris insisted, “I am! I am talking about it!” The interviewer quickly followed up by mentioning the mass deportations happening under Biden’s administration, prompting Harris to awkwardly switch her stance: “I’m not talking about…” before finally concluding, “Mass amnesty.”

The performance has been slammed by critics, with many wondering why Harris prioritized preparing for this interview when the result was an incoherent and embarrassing display. The incident is only fueling further concerns about her readiness for leadership, especially when it comes to handling complex issues like immigration.
