Kamala Harris is making headlines, from a soft interview on 'The View' to a more intense interrogation on '60 Minutes'.

It was a cringe-inducing moment.

No one anticipated that Kamala Harris would face tough questioning on "The View," a show known for supporting her campaign.

Whoopsi Goldberg announced the next president of the United States, which was a moment of shock.

The whole session yesterday was an in-kind contribution to the Harris campaign.

She wanted to do the show because she knew the liberal commentators slash entertainers would read their questions verbatim off blue cards.

Some reasonable questions were posed: What would distinguish her presidency from Joe Biden's? How would she handle the border? Wouldn't Ron DeSantis respond to her calls about hurricane preparations with a Category 4 storm approaching Florida?

Joy Behar criticized Trump's lies and questioned how anyone could support him, allowing the Vice President to argue that Trump's focus was on personal grievances rather than the interests of voters.

Kamala utilized the forum effectively, including discussing her fitness routine and time with her children when Joe Biden phoned to inform her of his decision to step down.

"The View," an ABC program founded by Barbara Walters, was even more embarrassing than expected, with the hosts gushing over Harris and slamming Trump.

Kamala skillfully evaded difficult questions by changing the subject and repeating familiar talking points.

Harris made a new policy proposal in a forum, suggesting that Medicare reimburse caring for the elderly at home instead of only in expensive institutions. She would pay for it by demanding deeper discounts on certain drugs paid for by Medicare. She was not cross-examined on the subject.

The ladies seemed awed that Kamala Harris was even there.

The "60 Minutes" special aired the night before featured a very different Kamala.

The news magazine show reiterated some of her criticisms of Trump, with Bill Whitaker stating: "You have accused Donald Trump of employing racist stereotypes when discussing Haitian immigrants. In Springfield, Ohio, when it comes to birtherism, when it comes to Charlottesville, in fact, you have labeled him a racist and divisive, yet millions of Americans continue to support him."

The VP's key message: "America wants a leader who unites and respects the people."

Whitaker was tenacious in requesting additional information from the Democratic nominee when they provided general responses.

Harris deflected criticism of her plan's projected $3 trillion cost over the next decade by emphasizing the support of economists and highlighting the benefits for small businesses.

Madam Vice President, I apologize. Your question was about how to finance it.

Harris pledged to ensure that billionaires and corporations pay their "fair share," but Whitaker questioned whether Congress would approve this.

This was the question that Harris hasn’t really had to answer.

"Whitaker stated, "According to your critics and columnists, the reason many voters are unaware of you is because you have frequently changed your stance on various issues. For instance, you were previously against fracking but now support it. You initially backed looser immigration policies but have since tightened them. Additionally, your position on Medicare for All has evolved, causing confusion among voters about your true beliefs and stance.""

In my four years as vice president, I have traveled the country, listened to people, and sought common ground. I believe in building consensus and being realistic about what can be achieved.

The interview was heavily edited, with Harris limiting her answers to two sentences, resulting in an overproduced "60 Minutes" style. However, I believe it was a mistake, and CBS should have run the whole thing or a major chunk of it unedited.

Trump agreed to an interview with Scott Pelley but later withdrew, giving various reasons, including the absence of fact-checking.

Yesterday afternoon, Kamala was being interviewed by Howard Stern, who had previously admired Trump for his treatment of women but now opposes him as a candidate and president.

The VP stated that he believes Trump has a desire to be a dictator and is easily manipulated by strongmen, as he admires them and is flattered by their favor.

"Is the President of the United States sending them to Russia, a murderous dictator, for his personal use?"

Stern described Trump's supporters as "maddening" and "insanity," and he told Harris that he would vote for her but could also choose "that wall over there" instead of Trump.

If Harris had started interviews weeks ago, she would have been making news sooner.
