With seven days to go until the 2020 election, CNN has resurfaced an interview White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany did back in 2015, where she praised Joe Biden as funny and likable and a man of the people.
In the August 2015 interview, McEnany said that Republicans would have problems with a potential race between then-candidate Donald Trump and Biden, who was then considering a run for the White House.
I think the Republicans run into a problem if it is Joe Biden and if it is maybe a Trump on the other side, McEnany said on local New Yorks AM970. Because Joe Biden, one of the things he is remarkable at is really kind of being a man of the people and resonating with middle class voters. Feeling like coming off as human. His gaffes as much as we make fun of them to a certain extent they make him look human. So not, since hes likable.
While McEnany said that Tump would likely beat Biden in a potential matchup, she thought the juxtaposition of kind of the man of the people and kind of this tycoon, is a problem.
Although Donald Trumps remarkably coming off as a man of the people despite being this wealthy business tycoon, she added.

Hey, I dont want to claim this guy. Donald Trump, if were going to be honest, is a progressive. He supports eminent domain. He supported tax increases before. Hes donated 300,000 to democratic candidates. So, the fact that the Republican Party is now having to claim him, is both unfortunate. And to me, inauthentic. Because this is not a true republican candidate. And the fact that hes being portrayed as such a media is troublesome and not accurate, she said.
Hes a Republican in name only.

I think that the stance of most Republicans is we have got to plug the border. But I think the mainstream Republican does not want to send the illegal immigrant back to Mexico, she replied. I think that theyre here to stay. Thats not the American way. Were not going to ship people across the border. There has to be some path to citizenship. So, in that sense, I dont think Donald Trump is consistent with mainstream republicans. Theres going to be a path.
