Trump is a threat to American democracy.<\/p>\n<p>For a Democratic presidential candidate, appearing on Fox News is about as close as <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2024\/10\/16\/us\/politics\/harris-democrats-fox-interview.html\" title=\"\">going into the lion\u2019s den<\/a> as it gets. On Wednesday, the lion was Mr. Baier, who repeatedly interrupted the vice president and tried to talk over her.<\/p>\n<div>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-h61jh5 evys1bk0\">But Ms. Harris \u2014 giving her first interview on Fox News in an attempt to reach millions of voters, especially conservative-leaning women, who have probably not heard much of her message \u2014 largely steered the conversation in her preferred direction.<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-h61jh5 evys1bk0\">Here are six takeaways from the interview.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"live-blog-post-content css-19v2tje eoo0vm40\" id=\"link-584c9ded\">She broke with Biden (a little).<\/h2>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-h61jh5 evys1bk0\">Ms. Harris made her clearest effort to separate herself from Mr. Biden after she was asked how her administration would be different.<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-h61jh5 evys1bk0\">\u201cMy presidency will not be a continuation of Joe Biden\u2019s presidency,\u201d she replied, adding that she represented a different generation of leadership and would address issues like housing and small businesses in different ways.<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-h61jh5 evys1bk0\">Republicans have seen Ms. Harris\u2019s unwillingness to articulate differences from the unpopular president as a political gift. In <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2024\/10\/08\/us\/politics\/harris-the-view-interview-trump.html\" title=\"\">an interview on ABC\u2019s \u201cThe View\u201d<\/a> last week, she said there was \u201cnot a thing that comes to mind\u201d when asked what she would have done differently from Mr. Biden.<\/p>\n<div data-testid=\"imageblock-wrapper\">\n<figure class=\"img-sz-medium css-d754w4 e1g7ppur0\" aria-label=\"media\" role=\"group\"><figcaption data-testid=\"photoviewer-children-caption\" class=\"css-gbc9ki ewdxa0s0\"><span class=\"css-jevhma e13ogyst0\">Ms. Harris said her presidency will not be a continuation of the Biden administration.<\/span><span class=\"css-1u46b97 e1z0qqy90\"><span class=\"css-1ly73wi e1tej78p0\">Credit&#8230;<\/span><span><span aria-hidden=\"false\">Eric Lee\/The New York Times<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-h61jh5 evys1bk0\">Ms. Harris has engaged in <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2024\/10\/09\/us\/politics\/harris-biden-trump-hurricanes-war.html\" title=\"\">an awkward dance<\/a> with her boss, walking a line between being deferential to their administration\u2019s accomplishments while trying to assert her own authority. Her answer on Wednesday was more rhetorical than substantive, but Mr. Biden may have given her the green light to be more aggressive going forward.<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-h61jh5 evys1bk0\">\u201cEvery president has to cut their own path. That\u2019s what I did,\u201d he said in a speech on Tuesday. \u201cI was loyal to Barack Obama, but I cut my own path as president. That\u2019s what Kamala\u2019s going to do. She\u2019s been loyal so far, but she\u2019ll cut her own path.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-h61jh5 evys1bk0\">And when Mr. Baier slyly asked her when she had first noticed that \u201cPresident Biden\u2019s mental faculties appeared diminished,\u201d she gave little ground, saying Mr. Biden was more than capable of leading the nation \u2014 unlike Mr. Trump, whom she called \u201cunfit,\u201d \u201cunstable\u201d and \u201cdangerous.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"live-blog-post-content css-19v2tje eoo0vm40\" id=\"link-ac075ee\">An aggressive Bret Baier pushed right-wing arguments.<\/h2>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-h61jh5 evys1bk0\">From the outset, Mr. Baier seemed determined to knock Ms. Harris off her talking points \u2014 often by echoing those of Mr. Trump.<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-h61jh5 evys1bk0\">It took him less than 20 seconds to interrupt her for the first time. Ms. Harris, who is known as an effective practitioner of the filibuster, had hardly even begun to answer his opening question. That pattern continued for much of the interview.<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-h61jh5 evys1bk0\">Many of Mr. Baier\u2019s questions seemed drawn from Mr. Trump\u2019s own arguments. The Fox News anchor invoked the names of young women whom Mr. Trump frequently points to at his rallies as victims of undocumented immigrants and who are often cited on Fox programming. In fact, nearly half of the 26-minute interview was devoted to immigration and border security, issues seen as among Ms. Harris\u2019s biggest weaknesses with undecided voters. Mr. Baier also suggested she was soft on Iran.<\/p>\n<div data-testid=\"imageblock-wrapper\">\n<figure class=\"img-sz-medium css-d754w4 e1g7ppur0\" aria-label=\"media\" role=\"group\"><figcaption data-testid=\"photoviewer-children-caption\" class=\"css-gbc9ki ewdxa0s0\"><span class=\"css-jevhma e13ogyst0\">Bret Baier, right, interrupted Ms. Harris frequently throughout the interview.<\/span><span class=\"css-1u46b97 e1z0qqy90\"><span class=\"css-1ly73wi e1tej78p0\">Credit&#8230;<\/span><span><span aria-hidden=\"false\">Haiyun Jiang for The New York Times<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-h61jh5 evys1bk0\">At one point, the Fox anchor came to Mr. Trump\u2019s aid by showing a clip of him defending himself from criticisms of <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2024\/10\/15\/us\/politics\/trump-opponents-enemy-within.html\" title=\"\">his \u201cenemy from within\u201d comments<\/a>. (Ms. Harris quickly pushed back.) At another, Mr. Baier played a Trump campaign ad and asked Ms. Harris to respond.<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-h61jh5 evys1bk0\">It was a far cry from the friendlier confines of <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2024\/09\/25\/us\/politics\/kamala-harris-msnbc-interview-takeaways.html\" title=\"\">MSNBC<\/a>, <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2024\/10\/06\/us\/politics\/kamala-harris-podcast-call-her-daddy.html\" title=\"\">nonpolitical podcasts<\/a> and local radio stations where Ms. Harris has given other interviews.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"live-blog-post-content css-19v2tje eoo0vm40\" id=\"link-18923c21\">For Harris, the interview was largely meant to appeal to women \u2026<\/h2>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-h61jh5 evys1bk0\">The interview with Mr. Baier gave Ms. Harris access to a large audience of Republican women whom her campaign is trying to win over. Her advisers believe there is a sliver of conservative women who might be receptive to the character contrast she is trying to draw with Mr. Trump \u2014 or who are at least willing to hear her out.<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-h61jh5 evys1bk0\">Harris campaign officials believe that talking about the current landscape of abortion restrictions in the United States is a winning strategy with female voters, particularly liberal and liberal-leaning ones. But Mr. Baier did not bring up the issue, and the vice president did not guide him there.<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-h61jh5 evys1bk0\">Instead, both of them stayed focused on immigration and border security \u2014 a topic that, <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.kff.org\/2024-survey-of-women-voters-dashboard\/?entry=key-findings-introduction\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">according to recent polls<\/a>, is <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/interactive\/2024\/08\/17\/us\/elections\/times-siena-poll-registered-voter-crosstabs.html\" title=\"\">near the top of the list<\/a> of concerns among female voters.<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-h61jh5 evys1bk0\">At several points, Mr. Baier asked the vice president if the families of women killed by undocumented immigrants were owed apologies from Ms. Harris and the Biden administration. He read off their names from a list, one by one, and played a clip from the mother of one of the victims, who blamed the administration\u2019s border policies for the loss of her daughter.<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-h61jh5 evys1bk0\">At every turn, Ms. Harris paused to express her condolences. But she repeatedly redirected the conversation back to Mr. Trump\u2019s work to sabotage a bipartisan border bill that would have amounted to the toughest restrictions in years, and pointed out that she was the only candidate running who had prosecuted criminals, including members of cartels.<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-h61jh5 evys1bk0\">\u201cLet\u2019s talk about what is happening right now with an individual who does not want to participate in solutions,\u201d Ms. Harris said of Mr. Trump.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"live-blog-post-content css-19v2tje eoo0vm40\" id=\"link-13fcd666\">\u2026 and those women saw the vice president being interrupted repeatedly.<\/h2>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-h61jh5 evys1bk0\">During this portion and others, the viewers Ms. Harris and her campaign are trying to appeal to also saw Mr. Baier repeatedly interrupt her as she tried to answer his questions.<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-h61jh5 evys1bk0\">The back-and-forth recalled how Matt Lauer talked over Hillary Clinton during a televised NBC News forum in 2016. Mr. Lauer was roundly criticized for being sexist.<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-h61jh5 evys1bk0\">\u201cYou have to let me finish, please,\u201d Ms. Harris said at one point during the exchange on immigration. \u201cI\u2019m in the middle of responding to the point you\u2019re raising, and I\u2019d like to finish.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-h61jh5 evys1bk0\">As Mr. Baier\u2019s interview with Ms. Harris progressed on Wednesday, he seemed more willing to let her have her say.<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-h61jh5 evys1bk0\">\u201cWe\u2019re talking over each other,\u201d he said shortly before it ended, though he had been doing so himself throughout their encounter. \u201cI apologize.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"live-blog-post-content css-19v2tje eoo0vm40\" id=\"link-127932d5\">The interview showed the limits of her outreach to Republicans.<\/h2>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-h61jh5 evys1bk0\">Ms. Harris frequently made points that Fox News viewers don\u2019t often hear in their normal programming, saying that Mr. Trump was unfit to serve and pointing out the number of former officials in his administration who support her candidacy.<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-h61jh5 evys1bk0\">But the interview was a reminder that even as she talks in speeches about establishing a cross-party dialogue \u2014 and campaigns with Republicans like former Representatives Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger \u2014 the vast majority of the Republican Party and its media ecosystem view her with skepticism bordering on contempt and stand firmly behind their chosen candidate.<\/p>\n<div data-testid=\"imageblock-wrapper\">\n<figure class=\"img-sz-medium css-d754w4 e1g7ppur0\" aria-label=\"media\" role=\"group\"><figcaption data-testid=\"photoviewer-children-caption\" class=\"css-gbc9ki ewdxa0s0\"><span class=\"css-jevhma e13ogyst0\">Ms. Harris has sought out Republicans for support.<\/span><span class=\"css-1u46b97 e1z0qqy90\"><span class=\"css-1ly73wi e1tej78p0\">Credit&#8230;<\/span><span><span aria-hidden=\"false\">Ruth Fremson\/The New York Times<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-h61jh5 evys1bk0\">At the same time, some younger and progressive Democrats have watched warily as Ms. Harris goes to great lengths to court moderate and conservative voters \u2014 a general-election strategy that is common but still carries the risk of dampening liberal enthusiasm.<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-h61jh5 evys1bk0\">Mr. Trump\u2019s campaign later trolled Ms. Harris by sharing the whole interview on social media, referring to it as his latest campaign ad.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"live-blog-post-content css-19v2tje eoo0vm40\" id=\"link-65aed65\">Harris flipped a Trump transgender attack back on him.<\/h2>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-h61jh5 evys1bk0\">Mr. Trump has tried to hammer Ms. Harris over her past support for prisoners receiving gender transition care. The Trump ad that Mr. Baier played for Ms. Harris \u2014 which many Republicans see as one of the former president\u2019s <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2024\/10\/08\/us\/politics\/trump-republican-transgender-ads.html\" title=\"\">most effective<\/a> \u2014 said that she was in favor of \u201ctaxpayer-funded sex changes for prisoners\u201d and \u201cillegal aliens.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-h61jh5 evys1bk0\">Ms. Harris quickly sought to turn the tables.<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-h61jh5 evys1bk0\">\u201cI will follow the law, and it\u2019s a law that Donald Trump actually followed,\u201d she said with a wide smile, pointing out that federal prison officials under Mr. Trump <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2024\/10\/16\/us\/politics\/trump-prisons-transgender-care-harris.html\" title=\"\">provided an array of gender-affirming treatments<\/a>, including hormone therapy, for a small group of inmates who requested it during his term in office.<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-h61jh5 evys1bk0\">Transgender inmates are among the most vulnerable people in federal prisons, and have received significant protections from the courts.<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-h61jh5 evys1bk0\">\u201cFrankly, that ad from the Trump campaign is a little bit of like throwing stones when you\u2019re living in a glass house,\u201d Ms. Harris said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"live-blog-post-content css-1smqmx3 etfikam0\">Reporting was contributed by <!-- -->Lisa Lerer<!-- -->, <!-- -->Reid J.
