Harris and Walz Face Criticism Before Interview

Vice President Kamala Harris has faced widespread criticism for her decision to bring her running mate, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, to an upcoming CNN interview with Dana Bash, marking her first major interview since becoming the Democratic Party's presidential nominee. Critics argue that this move demonstrates a lack of confidence in her ability to handle the interview alone, with some viewing it as a sign of weakness. The interview, set to air Thursday night, has sparked considerable interest and debate among media and political commentators. Additionally, conservative radio host Erick Erickson's controversial remarks about Harris have been condemned as sexist. Despite these criticisms, Harris's campaign aims to use the interview to articulate her vision and defend her policies ahead of a high-stakes debate against Donald Trump on September 10.
