Social media was rife with reactions to Vice President Kamala Harris ' recent interview with Bret Baier on Fox Network , with opinions ranging from "she reached a new demographic" to "train wreck."

MAGA derided her performance, labeling the interview a "disaster" and accusing her of evading accountability for her party's shortcomings. This sparked another heated debate on X, where a handful of users defended Harris while others continued to voice their criticisms.

A user on X criticized Harris, writing, “The interview by KamalaHarris on FoxNews was a DISASTER. Kamala's FOX showed she has NO coherent response to her & Biden's border crisis, and more importantly, she came across as unhinged, angry, nasty & unlikeable with her pathetic attacks on Trump as 'unstable.' She blew it!”


Another wrote, “After tonight's Fox interview with Kamala Harris, it wouldn’t be surprising if George Clooney soon urges Joe Biden to step back from the presidential race in an open letter.”


Donald Trump's running mate JD Vance also chimed in the drama and wrote in a post on X (formerly Twitter), "To my Democratic friends: maybe you should consider swapping Kamala Harris for Joe Biden."


Another user hit out at Kamala calling her the worst presidential candidate ever, and that she can't handle the pressure: “Kamala Harris is hands down the worst presidential candidate ever. Her train wreck of an interview on Fox News is just the latest proof that she can't handle the pressure or the truth. It's time to stop pretending she has what it takes to lead; she’s clearly out of her depth and doesn’t deserve to be in the conversation!”



However, some supported Harris. One user said, “Kamala’s Fox interview slayed.” Another added, “Kamala Harris handled that Fox News interview with confidence and skill.”



Beyond the usual debate, people on the internet found humour in the moment and turned it into memes.

A popular post read, “CHALLENGE: Sum up the Kamala Harris Fox Interview in one GIF.”



In case you missed it, here are the key highlights of Harris’ toughest interview of her campaign with conservative Fox News.

  • Biden Presidency: Harris, who had previously said that she wouldn’t have approached things differently than Joe Biden, emphasised that she would not represent a "continuation" of his presidency, though she didn’t clarify what that meant.
  • Attacks on Trump: Denouncing her Republican rival as a threat to democracy, she referenced Trump’s comments calling his opponents “the enemy within.” In response, Trump claimed Harris "wouldn't change a thing" if elected.
  • Border Security: Expressing sympathy for the family of 12-year-old Jocelyn Nungaray, who was killed by an undocumented migrant, Harris defended the Biden-Harris administration's border security policies. She avoided acknowledging any mistakes, and instead criticised Trump for "preferring to run on a problem rather than fixing it."
  • Transgender Inmates: Harris stated she would "follow the law" regarding taxpayer funding for transgender inmates seeking gender reassignment surgery, arguing that Trump had done the same during his presidency.
