Desperate times call for desperate measures in Oprah Winfrey and Kamala Harris’s interviews. There is no doubt that this Democratic candidate was the gun owner. She laughed off and said if someone broke into her home then Mother would shoot men, than getting back and saying probably I shouldn’t say that, I should let my staff handle that later, though, she should probably not have said. This isn’t the first time Harris has highlighted her gun ownership.
This comes barely a few months after Kamala Harris’s gun owner, who has been running for office, and proclaiming her love of guns, came out again with campaign pictures holding guns. I would handle my gun responsibly and don’t lie to you. Sandy Hill Parker, Harris leaves gun control advocates wondering about his true intent. That she possessed a firearm was, of course, a crucial detail regarding her candidacy.
Her comments came at the right moment since the control of the arms has been a central issue in the days of elections. Harris has regularly stressed the need for focus on the issues of universal background check, assault weapons ban, yet protecting the rights of gun owners. Regarding the general removable assault weapons ban, this was possible when telling her autobiographic gun owner story, that is to say, trying to reach out to a huge share of voters.
At the “Unite for America” rally that Winfrey held in Michigan, attendees were encouraged by Kamala Harris to rise above the divisions brought by Trump. Other Hollywood stars such as Jennifer Lopez and Meryl Streep showed their support through electronic means and reached out to almost a million viewers.
Apart from issues related to gun control, Harris focused on other major topics of her campaign, including abortion and immigration, in reply to questions directed at her by Winfrey.
