Maher, identifying himself as a centrist voter crucial to determining the outcome of the election against former President Donald Trump, emphasized that voters like him are essential for Harris&#8217;s success this November. Tarantino remarked on Maher&#8217;s podcast, &#8220;What many people fail to appreciate about Democrats is that sometimes it\u2019s simply about f***ing winning; how we appear at this moment doesn\u2019t matter. It\u2019s a mad f***ing dash and she is running without pausing to trip up.&#8221; He also mentioned his intention to vote for Harris regardless of her interview responses but cautioned her not to &#8220;f*** s*** up&#8221; when she eventually does speak with the press. During an episode of his show Real Time, Maher discussed Harris&#8217;s media avoidance with CNN&#8217;s Kaitlan Collins and suggested that her decision not to engage is even more disrespectful than Trump&#8217;s labeling of journalists as &#8220;the enemy of the people,&#8221; implying it conveys a sense of superiority over the press. Both Collins and Maher expressed their desire to interview Harris before the election but acknowledged they wouldn&#8217;t be holding their breath in anticipation. Other notable figures like Elon Musk and Stephen A. Smith have also offered interviews with her campaign, which has indicated she will participate in at least one press interview by Saturday<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2632,"featured_media":2331081,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Quentin-Tarantino-scaled-1024x683.webp","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[4021,4604,39311],"class_list":["post-2331080","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","tag-harris","tag-press","tag-quentin-tarantino"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Quentin-Tarantino-scaled-1024x683.webp","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2331080","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2632"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2331080"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2331080\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2331081"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2331080"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2331080"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2331080"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
