Imagine if NASA comms guys and space enthusiasts got together in the minutes after the Challenger shuttle blew up mid-air on live TV and decided they were going to say that the attempt itself to put a school teacher in orbit was what counted. That only a strong nation would attempt such a thing. Hey there! We thought you might like to see a sample of our State of the Day newsletter.

Welcome back to State of the Day, where I strip the euphemism and misdirection off national news to give it to you straight, no ice, no mixer. And boy, is there some misdirection in the wake of Harrisâs big Fox News interview ⦠RORSCHACH REALITY Imagine if NASA comms guys and space enthusiasts got together in the minutes after the Challenger shuttle blew up mid-air on live TV and decided they were going to say that the attempt itself to put a school teacher in orbit was what counted. That only a strong nation would attempt such a thing. If you were online or watching pro-Harris network media or both, neither of which I recommend, the immediate aftermath of Kamala Harrisâs interview with Foxâs Bret Baier was something to behold. As far as the interview itself goes, really the most charitable description you could give would be an Orwellian âungood.â At worst, it was a disaster unfolding live in homes across the nation. Watch the absolute blank look on Harrisâs face after Baier walks her into the most foreseeable trap in the history of interviews ([17 seconds in](. Watch another moment of blankness turn into an attempt to [awkward cackle]( her way out of answering a legitimate question. âCâmon you know, you know what I mean!â She insisted as her ignition giggle failed to turn over into that signature cackle. âI actually donât,â Baier deadpanned. Houston, we have a problem. Supporters, likely aghast and scrambling for a bright side, settled on a few terms theyâd repeat over and over in the hopes of shifting the debate at least by the next morningâs newsletters. âStrongâ was one of them. She was âpugilistic.â Worse yet, they claimed the attempt proved it was Kamala, not Trump, who was willing to do contentious interviews. If this sounds like inverted reality, itâs because it is â but it paid off, at least in the minds of Acela corridor elites. By the next morning, Playbook felt bold enough to declare Harris a âBaier hunter.â Points for the pun, but you guys have seriously lost the plot. Of course, thereâs a point to all this. Itâs an attempt to shift the overton window on analysis of exactly what happened in front of everyoneâs eyes Wednesday evening. Playbookâs own write up was almost too on the nose when they declared the interview a political âink-blotâ test, [something I predicted]( several hours earlier. But like reality, there a few undeniable signs the contention is, in a word, bullsh*t. [Like what you're reading?

Nobody pulls the race card when theyâre winning. Second, where are all the viral clips? Like the 60 Minutes interview before it, very little is going viral online that paints Harris in a positive light. You can find plenty of quotes in heavily-massaged print pieces under utterly tortured headlines, but where are all the clips? Outside of Kamala HQ clipping a series of old talking points she managed to get through the barrage, thereâs nothing. If Harris really had a âbecause youâd be in jailâ moment or two, wouldnât they be going viral on left-wing accounts? The best they seem to have is an âexcuse me, a woman is speakingâ moment and thatâs it. Elon Musk landed a literal skyscraper-sized rocket from outer space on a launch pad and thereâs videos of that getting shared everywhere. Lastly, perhaps most importantly, her handlers cut the interview short. She was supposed to do a half hour, but ended up vamoosing after 28 minutes. If youâve really got a guy pinned to the mat, if youâre âstrong,â do you give up? Do strong armies retreat? Does any of this make sense? Meanwhile, [in the immediate wake]( of the interview, a betting market ticked up in Trumpâs favor, putting stock in the phrase âmoney talks and bullsh*t walks.â But will the âeverything is fine, this is actually goodâ routine break through the corridor and into American minds? My guess is not. More than likely itâs just positive self-talk for politicos and media elites. If America tuned in, they likely saw what everyone else saw, Harris burning up in the atmosphere.
