As Twitchy reported earlier, CNN released excerpts from Dana Bash's interview with Kamala Harris and Tim Walz, and Bash set up multiple choices for Harris to explain her flip-flopping on all the issues she ran on in 2020. The key takeaway is her values haven't changed … she doesn't support the Green New Deal anymore, but she does want to continue the Biden-Harris administration's important work on climate change.
"The climate crisis is real that it is an urgent matter to which we should apply metrics that include holding ourselves to deadlines around time," she told Bash.
Aaron Rupar's understudy Acyn posted the excerpt, apparently thinking it made Harris look good. So she's for fracking and against EV mandates now, right?
The Harris-Walz campaign's Brian Fallon stepped in to translate:
VP Harris explains shifts away from 2019 positions on Green New Deal and fracking by noting how the Biden admin’s clean energy investments have proven the ability to make progress on climate without those past stances https://t.co/yIxRgcP6g1

Oh, thanks for clearing that up for us.
Awe, look at you, smothering her word salad with ranch dressing. You're doing just swell, Brian.

Literally none of this was explained. Look at you go.

You’re using the word “explains” and I don’t think you know what it means.

Are these "explanations" in the room with us right now?

None of what you’re saying is true. None. Terrible look by you doing this.

That’s…not what she said.

Is this the wrong clip because she explains none of that whatsoever

That’s literally the opposite of what she said: “my values have not changed”

Can you point me to her quote about this?

I haven't been able to watch it yet, but this is the EDITED version, right? We would love to see the parts that were edited out.

She's just saying that the existing approaches to climate change are working … like the $7.5 billion that has been spent to construct seven EV charging stations.
You were really counting on no one watching that clown show, weren’t you?
