Even Baier seemed to acknowledge that Harris won the day.

“I think she had a mission that she wanted to do,” Baier said after the interview. “Maybe she wanted to have a viral moment or pushback. She came to Fox News and she wanted to have a go-after-Donald-Trump viral moment that plays on a lot of other channels and on social media. She may have gotten that.”

Harris received rave reviews from across the political world.

    I mean it’s not hard as long as you’re paying attention. Pretty much everything the conservatives and centrist conservative “liberals” are using to convince their base are lies and exaggerations. They rely on basic logical fallacies that any seasoned debater should be able to recognize and shoot down the fallacies without engaging with them.

    But that doesn’t make for good entertainment, so usually they just move on from one fallacy to the next and interrupt anything heading towards fact and never actually debate anything of substance because they aren’t there for that. They’re there for ratings for their owners and advertisers. That includes the politicians as much as FOX News and the media outlets.
