Why does Kamala Harris say half of America supports Donald Trump?

Brett Baier 0:00
If he's as bad as you say, that half of this country is now supporting this person who could be the 47th President of the United States, why is that happening?
Kamala Harris 0:10
This is an election for president of the United States. It's not supposed to be easy.
Brett Baier 0:15
I know, but
Kamala Harris 0:15
it's not supposed to be. It is not supposed to be a cakewalk for anyone. So are they misguided, the
Brett Baier 0:21
50 percent?
Kamala Harris 0:22
Are they
Brett Baier 0:22
stupid?
Kamala Harris 0:23
Oh, God, I would never say that about the American people. And in fact, if you listen to Donald Trump, if you watch any of his rallies, he's the one who tends to demean and belittle and diminish Americans. the american people he's the one who talks about an enemy within within an enemy within talking about the american people suggesting he would turn the american military on the american people
Brett Baier 0:48
we asked that question to the former president today harris faulkner had a town hall and this is how he responded
Donald Trump 0:56
I heard about that. They were saying I was like threatening. I'm not threatening anybody. They're the ones doing the threatening. They do phony investigations. I've been investigated more than Alphonse Capone. He was the greatest. No, it's true. Think of it. It's called weaponization of government. It's a terrible thing. So
Kamala Harris 1:14
I'm sorry. And with all due respect, that clip was not what he has been saying about the enemy within that he has repeated. When he's speaking about the American people, that's not what you just showed. He was asked about that specifically. No, that's not what you just showed, in all fairness and respect to you. No, no, no, I'm telling you that was the question that we asked him. You didn't show that, and here's the bottom line. He has repeated it many times, and you and I both know that. And you and I both know that he has talked about turning the American military on the American people.

How does Harris counter Trump’s “enemy within” rhetoric on Fox?

Kamala Harris 1:44
He has talked about going after people who are engaged in peaceful protest. He has talked about locking people up because they disagree with him. This is a democracy and an inner democracy. The president of the United States in the United States of America should be willing to be able to handle criticism without saying he'd lock people up for doing it. And this is what is at stake, which is why you have someone like the former chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff saying what Mark Milley has said about Donald Trump being a threat the united states of america
Brett Baier 2:25
he's quoted in the bob woodward book that way yes let me ask
Ben Meiselas 2:28

Kamala Harris 2:53
or any before the bipartisan safety communities act the first bill practically within hours of taking the oath was a bill to fix our immigration system
Brett Baier 3:04
yes ma'am it was called the u.s citizen citizenship act of 2000
Kamala Harris 3:08
exactly
Brett Baier 3:09
21.
Kamala Harris 3:10
it was essentially halfway to citizenship may i finish responding please but you have to let me finish you had
Brett Baier 3:17
the white house and the house and the senate
Kamala Harris 3:19
and they didn't bring up responding to the point you're raising, and I'd like to finish. Yes, ma'am. We recognized from day one that to the point of this being your first question, it is a priority for us as a nation and for the American people. And our focus has been on fixing a problem. And from day one then, we have done a number of things, including to address our asylum system and put more resources, getting more judges, what we needed to do to tighten up penalties and increase penalties for illegal crossings, what we needed to do to deal with points of entry between border entry points. That's the work we did and we worked. on supporting what was a bipartisan effort, including some of the most conservative members of the United States Congress, to actually strengthen the border.
Kamala Harris 4:17
That border bill would have put 1,500 more border agents at the border, which is why I believe the border patrol agents supported the bill.
