Kamala Harris’ campaign was directly asked by CNN why she isn’t doing any interviews, and they claimed she’s too busy.
CNN anchor Jake Tapper asked Kamala Senior Adviser and former Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms why Harris hasn’t sat down to answer any questions that voters might have, say about what on earth any of her policies are.
Bottoms responded “She’s a very busy person.”
You can’t make this up.

Of course, there was zero pushback from Tapper.
The obvious follow-up question is, “What TF is she ‘busy’ with if she’s not talking to anybody in the press?”
But Tapper is too much of a squish to follow-up his own legitimate question when it’s a Democrat. If it were a Republican, Tapper would be hectoring them over the inane… https://twitter.com/greg_price11/status/1837232401480831005

The American people need to apologise for interrupting Kamala’s busy schedule with their incessant demands to know what a presidential candidate thinks.
Imagine applying for a job, then telling the recruiting officer you’re too busy to do an interview. https://twitter.com/greg_price11/status/1837232401480831005

It’s all about priorities.
She should be busy with interviews. https://twitter.com/greg_price11/status/1837232401480831005

Look at all the things she is busy with.
Kamala Harris once again dodging interviews, but always ready with excuses. It’s ridiculous that a VP can avoid real accountability and tough questions, yet claim to be too busy. If you can’t face the media or the American people, what are you doing in office? People deserve… pic.twitter.com/fwKUFUJRoh

She’s busy with excuses?
Too busy doing what, dodging interviews? https://twitter.com/greg_price11/status/1837232401480831005

Busy with what exactly?

Good question, lets take a look.
She’s not taking part in running the country. That duty seems to have been delegated to Jill Biden.
They said she isn’t responsible for any of the WH business so she should be free to do interviews for this job she wants. Sounds like she’s got plenty of free time for that. https://twitter.com/greg_price11/status/1837232401480831005

What she was actually doing was speaking to a poorly attended event at a performing arts center in Atlanta, Georgia. The event was downgraded to a ballroom in the center because she couldn’t fill any of the larger venues.

It was surely a much more critical use of time than an interview that would’ve reached millions.
