Because i had it first. kayleigh: emily makes a really good point, there s an article about how kamala harris will be used as an ambassador and leverage the difference for gaza and her defense on abortion, she caters to the far left and that is a smart place for her, catering to young voters and voters of color, but when she came out on the view and debuted this kamala harris 2.0. i thought it was a good place for her. but now she is on the quest to be likable and before you try to be likable you have to be respectable, she needs to rehabilitate her image and it s a real mistake for the team to put her in situations where she is just laughing and making light of situations. harris: people are annoyed by the left. and now you need to have a lot of it. okay, we are continuing to monitor the development of hunter biden federal trial right now. the ex-girlfriend, zoe, is on
