Liberal Media Scream: Team Harris calls US ‘incredibly backwards’ – Washington Examiner
The article discusses a recent segment of “Liberal Media Scream,” featuring Alyssa Farah Griffin, a conservative commentator, who criticized America as “incredibly backwards” for never having elected a female president. This statement was made during a discussion about a debate between former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris on CNN’s “State of the Union.” Farah Griffin’s comments contrast with a central theme of the Harris campaign, which criticizes Trump for claiming that the country is failing and regressing under the leadership of Harris and President Biden. The article highlights the discussion surrounding the perceptions of female leadership in the U.S. and the expectations for Harris as she prepares for her role in the political arena.
Liberal Media Scream: Team Harris calls US ‘incredibly backwards’
This week’s Liberal Media Scream features a key Team Harris surrogate decrying America as “incredibly backwards” for electing only men as president.
Trump traitor Alyssa Farah Griffin, the “conservative” on The View, was discussing the debate between her ex-boss, former President Donald Trump, and Vice President Kamala Harris on CNN’s State of the Union when she blasted America.
“We’re incredibly backwards as a country that we’ve never had a female president,” she said.
The comment clashed with one of the key themes of the Harris campaign: criticizing Trump for claiming that America is in a shambles and spinning backward under the leadership of Harris and President Joe Biden.
From Sunday’s State of the Union:
ALYSSA FARAH GRIFFIN: And the reality is, you shouldn’t underestimate Donald Trump. He has now done more presidential race — debates, I should say — than anyone in history, and he’s somebody who came up on television. He’s a communicator. He’s somebody who is used to speaking to a mass audience. If he can stay focused and he stays to the core issues: economy, border, it’s a good night for him. But we’ve also seen the world in which he shouts out the Proud Boys, or he talks about Hannibal Lecter, or he gets into name calling. That could go against him. To Kamala Harris, she needs to look presidential. We’re incredibly backwards as a country that we’ve never had a female president. So, for a lot of people seeing somebody up there who’s a woman who might be our first female president, she needs to seem commanding. She cannot get too in the weeds on policy. She needs to talk about it but can’t get sidetracked. Big picture. How will you demonstrably make people’s lives better? How will you turn the economy around? If she can do that and not get rattled by Donald Trump, it’ll be a good night for her.

Jorge Bonilla, a news analyst with the Media Research Center, explained our weekly pick: “One can very easily imagine Griffin uttering this same nonsensical hot take on ABC’s The View, with great care so as not to get yelled at by Sunny Hostin and before whatever box-wine-fueled nonsense sputtered by Ana Navarro. Given when a major party first nominated a woman to the top of the ballot, Griffin is calling America ‘backwards’ for committing the sin of electing Donald Trump to the presidency — a presidency that she served. This Trump-deranged nonsense is what passes for ‘analysis’ at CNN.”
