Kamala Harris faced significant backlash after her recent interview with Oprah Winfrey, with CNN commentators questioning her media engagement strategy. Critics, including Evan Barker, felt the interview resembled a lecture rather than a meaningful conversation, particularly for working-class viewers. Comments from commentators highlighted her repeated use of phrases like 'children of the community,' which were perceived as vague and insincere. There were also concerns about Winfrey's previous relationship with Trump and how it contrasts with her current supportive stance towards Harris, amplifying speculation about her credibility. The discussion was further fueled by claims from Trump supporters who labeled both Winfrey and Harris as 'scammers' regarding fundraising efforts, creating a tumultuous atmosphere around the interview.
