Vice President Kamala Harris had, what should have been, a softball interview, but it did not work that way as she had an absolute meltdown on national television.
She appeared on Friday on the Comedy Central show of Charlamagne Tha God, whose real name is Lenard Larry McKelvey, but he did not give her softballs, The New York Post reported.
“I want to know who the real president of this country is — is it Joe Biden, or Joe Manchin?” the host said on his Comedy Central show, “Tha God’s Honest Truth.”
“Come on, Charlamagne,” the vice president said. “Come on. It’s Joe Biden.”

“I can’t tell sometimes,” the host hit back.
“No, no, no, no, no, no, no,” the vice president, growing visibly infuriated with the host, said. “It’s Joe Biden, and don’t start talking like a Republican about asking whether or not he’s president. And it’s Joe Biden. And I’m vice president and my name is Kamala Harris.”
At this point Symone Sanders, one of Harris’ aides who has announced her departure from the vice president’s staff, stepped in to end the interview.
“I’m so sorry Charlamagne, it’s Symone, we have to wrap,” she said.
“She can hear me,” the host said, laughing. Sanders responded, “Can you hear me now? I’m sorry but we have to wrap. I’m sorry to interrupt.”

“They’re acting like they can’t hear me, yo,” Charlamagne said, implying that the vice president’s team was faking technical issues.
Harris confirmed that she could hear him and the interview continued.
“I think it’s a mistake to try and think about this only through the lens of Democrats versus Democrats, when the fact is Republicans are consistently and unanimously standing in the way of progress,” she said.
“I hear the frustration, but let’s not deny the impact that we’ve had and agree also that there is a whole lot more work to be done and it is not easy to do,” the vice president said. “But we will not give up and I will not give up.”

Harris is not the only Democrat getting frustrated with the media. Manchin himself laced into a reporter this week.
While speaking with the press, Manchin venter his frustration with the media in the wake of a report that he wants to drop the child tax credit from Biden’s climate and social spending package.
“This is bullshit. You’re bullshit,” Manchin yelled at HuffPost reporter Arthur Delaney.
Delaney had asked Manchin about the reports that the child tax credit has become a major sticking point in talks with the White House.
“I’m done, I’m done,” Manchin fumed.

Manchin denied the reports several times on Wednesday, saying the media had heard “bad rumors” and that he does support the child tax credit.
“I’m not opposed to child tax credit, I’ve never been opposed to child tax credit,” he insisted.
“Guys, I’m not negotiating with any of you all. You can ask all the questions you want. Guys, let me go. This is bullshit. You’re bullshit,” he told Delaney in the Capitol subway, grumbling “God almighty” as he walked away.

Replying to @ArthurDelaneyHPI had asked if it was true he wanted CTC out of BBB. “I've always been for child tax credits,” he said. So I asked if he wants it to continue paying parents $300 a month, and he said he was not going to "negotiate" with me and that I'm bullshit

Everyone around here is "for" the child tax credit. It's a question of whether you want it to keep paying parents as much as $300 per month. If the advance monthly payments and extra $1,600 expire at the end of the month, there will still be a $2,000 partially refundable credit

Biden and Democrats were hit with some bad news this week about their socialist agenda.
“First, there was the news of the likely death of the Build Back Better (BBB) bill, after it became clear that Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV) still wasn’t on board in the wake of the very concerning CBO numbers. Reports were that the bill was being put off until possibly March because they don’t have the votes now, despite the Democrats’ claim that they wanted it passed this year,” RedState reported.
“So Democrats would need 60 votes which they would not have. On top of all that, the media may just have pushed Manchin too far yesterday. Manchin has a long fuse and usually has a very genteel response to things, but he’s been stalked and hounded by activists and reporters everywhere,” the outlet added.
