Kamala Harris’s *60 Minutes* interview was a spectacle in the art of saying a great deal while revealing almost nothing. Her answers on immigration, the economy, and the broader state of affairs were like a politician’s greatest hits, meticulously rehearsed and delivered with a smile. If you were looking for a flash of genuine insight or a daring opinion, you’d be as disappointed as someone expecting sincerity at a campaign fundraiser. The vice president’s responses were as slippery as a greased politician at election time, gliding past difficult questions with the kind of practiced style that makes you wonder if she even remembers how to speak candidly. When pressed on thornier issues, she offers a statement that amounted to little more than a memorized evasion. It’s the kind of performance that makes you question whether any of these interviews are meant to enlighten the public or just to reassure her base that she’s sticking to the script. There’s a certain cynical brilliance to it—why bother with truth when you can deliver a soundbite?
