Fox & Friends' Brian Kilmeade applauds Kamala Harris' debate performance: 'She nailed it'


Sen. Kamala Harris (D-Calif.) has a friend in Fox & Friends after the second round of Democratic debates.
The stand-out moment of Thursday's debate was Harris sparring with Biden after she criticized him for his past opposition to busing, as well as his comments about having worked with segregationists. Fox & Friends' Brian Kilmeade on Friday morning commended Harris for this performance, describing it as pitch perfect, Mediaite reports.
"I thought she nailed it," Kilmeade said. "I thought her tone was perfect. Her personal story, if it holds up, and I imagine it did, just knocked it out of the park."

Kilmeade went on to mock Biden for a response to Harris that "didn't work," with co-host Steve Doocy recalling the moment when Biden noted that he was out of time and was ruthlessly mocked on social media.
"Immediately, Twitter said, he's out of luck," Doocy said. "He's out of gas."
