Kamala Harris faced criticism after her town hall event in Delaware County, Pennsylvania, which was hosted by CNN.

Democratic presidential nominee Vice President Kamala Harris speaks at Cochise College Douglas Campus in Douglas, Ariz. 27.09.2024. Arizona, USA.

Harris provided unclear responses to several questions, including those about her changing stance on border policy and her record as vice president.

One of the more contentious moments of the event came when Harris was asked about her previous positions on border security.

During her 2019 presidential campaign, Harris supported free healthcare for illegal immigrants, advocated for the decriminalization of illegal immigration, and referred to former President Donald Trump’s border wall as a “racist” project.

However, following a record influx of 10 million illegal immigrants during the Biden-Harris administration, she now claims to support border walls and increased security.

Harris’ shift in position on immigration policy has raised questions, particularly in light of her current support for measures she once opposed.

Her answers during the town hall did little to clarify her stance, as she avoided directly addressing her earlier statements.

Kamala’s change of position has been met with skepticism from voters who recall her earlier campaign promises.

CNN’s Anderson Cooper pressed Harris on the broader criticism that she is positioning herself as a “change” candidate despite having served as vice president for nearly four years. “Some voters, though, might ask, you’ve been in the White House for four years. You were vice president, not the president. But why wasn’t any of that done for the last four years?” Cooper asked.

Harris responded with a vague and somewhat rambling answer, saying, “Well, there was a lot that was done, but there’s more to do, Anderson. And I’m pointing out things that need to be done that haven’t been done, but need to be done. And I’m not gonna shy away from saying, ‘hey, these are still problems that we need to fix.’”

Her response was seen by many as failing to adequately address the question, further fueling criticism of her leadership.

At another point during the town hall, a Pennsylvania voter asked Harris about her weaknesses and how she manages them as a leader.

Her response sparked ridicule on social media, with some comparing it to a scene from the TV show The Office. Harris answered, “Well, I am certainly not perfect. So let’s start there,” followed by a brief laugh.

She added, “And I think that I perhaps a weakness some would say, but I actually think it’s a strength, is I really do value having a team of very smart people around me who bring to my decision-making process, different perspectives. My team will tell you I am constantly saying, let’s kick the tire on that. Let’s kick the tires on it.”

Kamala’s comments during the town hall event have sparked further discussion about her ability to connect with voters and provide clear answers on key issues.

Barack Obama’s chief strategist, David Axelrod said Kamala has a habit of going to ‘Word Salad City.’

With the election approaching, her performance at the town hall may play a significant role in shaping public perception as she continues her campaign.
