Friday’s PBS News Hour followed Laura Barron-Lopez on the Kamala Harris campaign trail, testing out the Democrats’ new line of personal attack: Branding Republicans as “weird” and “creepy.” Barron-Lopez dropped her previous sensitivity to rhetoric and seemed to approve of the new tactic. Anchor Geoff Bennett set things up, then threw it to White House correspondent Barron-Lopez, who was gushy over the Democratic turn toward its personal attack tactic:
Laura Barron-Lopez: On a fast-track campaign for the White House, Vice President Harris is trying something new, to call it as she sees it.
Kamala Harris, Vice President of the United States (D) and U.S. Presidential Candidate: He and his running mate sure seem to have a lot to say about me. And, by the way, don't you find some of their stuff to just be plain weird?
