Maria Shriver reveals shocking truth behind Kamala Harris' town hall when woman asks simple question

A town hall event with Vice President Kamala Harris on Monday featured a shocking revelation after one voter simply wondered whether she could ask a question.
Former California First Lady Maria Shriver admitted while hosting the event with former Rep. Liz Cheney in Royal Oak, Michigan that she would only include 'predetermined questions.'
'Are we going to be able to ask a question?' asked a woman in the audience.
'You're not, unfortunately we have some predetermined questions,' Shriver replied. 'And hopefully I'll be able to ask some of the questions that might be in your head, I hope so.'
Typically, presidential campaigns allow voters at townhall meetings to ask unscripted questions, which lends a level of authenticity to the proceedings and highlights a presidential candidate's personal touch.
Shriver said she had agreed to moderate the event as a 'concerned citizen' but also a 'journalist.'
'I want this to be like a kitchen table, like just think that we're sitting around at the kitchen table and we're jamming about all kinds of stuff,' she said.
Shriver is a member of the Kennedy family and was an NBC journalist who was married to former California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger before the couple divorced.
Cheney joked that it felt like a Kennedy family dinner table, noting the number of people in the room.
'It's raucous, it's hot but it's fun, that's what it's going to be like,' Shriver laughed.
But the conversation was hardly 'jamming' or 'raucus' as Harris repeated many of her scripted lines about her love of country and Cheney revisited her frequent attacks against former President Donald Trump for allowing the riots to occur on January 6 on Capitol Hill.
The revelation comes as the vice president has refused to sit for an interview with several legacy media outlets

Predetermined questions.
I’m guessing the guests were handpicked too.
The mindless and the dead will still vote for Kamala.

Kamala doesn’t do improve... She’s more of a scripted politician... And everybody knows it.

I would expect that only paid actors would be allowed to ask questions.

Media just wants money for political ads. They play it cool, the money rolls in. Keep the polls close, more money for ads.

Then this isn’t a town hall
town hall Definition:
“A town hall event is a public meeting where a group of people can gather to discuss topics of interest, share information, or hear from a public official or political candidate:
Local and national politics
Politicians can meet with constituents to discuss legislation or regulations, or to hear from them on topics of interest”
Its not a surprise to anyone that this is staged and that this excuse of a presidential candidate cannot and won’t be expected to think and react
They’ve almost normalized that as well
This is not a town hall

Everything about Kamala Harris is contrived, there is nothing authentic in her entire life.
She did not even register to vote until she was 29, ...so much for the child activist.

So it’s the same scripted crapola as every other event that Kamala has done. She can only do something if it’s a script. She’s an actress.
We the people deserve better than an actress or a potato head puppet as President.
