Matt Margolis of PJMedia.com highlights the latest silly comments from a major left-wing media figure.
Rachel Maddow has a hilarious excuse for why Kamala Harris comes across as so vapid in public: she’s actually sharp and incisive behind closed doors—we just don’t get to see it when the cameras are rolling.
Sure, Rachel. Sure.
Maddow, now hosting on MS NOW (the rebranded MSNBC), recently appeared on the At Our Table podcast with former DNC Chair Jaime Harrison. At one point during the interview, the conversation turned to Kamala and her nationwide book tour promoting 107 Days. What followed was Maddow’s attempt to explain away Kamala’s consistently horrible public appearances by insisting there’s a secret, superior version of the former vice president that only a select few get to witness.
Of course, Maddow made it clear that she’s only interacted with Kamala Harris “a handful of times” in private settings. “I’m not, like, friends with Vice President Harris,” Maddow claimed up front. “I’ve spoken to her a handful of times in non-public settings, you know, like in preparing for interviews, you know, or at the White House or whatever. But it’s not like we have a close personal relationship.” Yet somehow, from these limited glimpses, Maddow claims she’s discovered the real Kamala, someone who’s apparently “sharper and more blunt, and honestly more cutting, and more incisive, than she is when she knows the cameras are rolling.”
Maddow obviously heaped praise on 107 Days, calling it “very well-written.” According to Maddow, Kamala’s natural bluntness and incisiveness come through more clearly on the page than in her carefully managed television appearances. “Whatever you think of the arguments she makes and the scores that she settles in that book, it’s a very well-written book,” Maddow said. “And some of her innate, natural bluntness and incisiveness come through in that book. But in the interview, with the camera rolling, she’s being careful.”
