A star investor on the hit ABC show "Shark Tank" sparred with an economics columnist Wednesday night on CNN during a heated debate over tariffs and opposing economic plans from Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump.

Businessman Kevin O'Leary squared off against Washington Post columnist Catherine Rampell on "NewsNight" after Rampell asked why Trump continues to propose levying tariffs on other nations including China.

Donald Trump’s running mate, Sen. J.D. Vance (R-OH), officially became a 2020 election denier Wednesday, a fact Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg criticized as “shameful” and a political mistake.

“First of all it's wrong, of course Donald Trump lost,” Buttigieg told CNN anchor Kaitlan Collins on Wednesday night. “And I think he knows that. I think he's lying. I also think it's a mistake politically because voters have a dim view of election deniers.”

Former California Lt. Gov. Abel Maldonado, a staunch supporter of former President Donald Trump, clashed with CNN's Anderson Cooper on Wednesday as he tried to go after the character of decorated generals who served under the former president and, like many other former Trump administration officials, have now come out against him as unfit to lead.

"Speaking on General Milley, he was like, you stated he was standing with him next to the Bible and so forth and —" began Maldonado.

MSNBC host Chris Hayes shredded Fox News host Bret Baier on Wednesday night for playing a “selectively edited clip” of former President Donald Trump during his interview with Kamala Harris – which the vice president and social media users also criticized.

“Breit Baier came at Kamala Harris with every attack in the Trump playbook, including one moment where he got caught using an edited sound bite of Trump,” Hayes said as he began his show “All In” just hours after Harris’ first formal interview with Fox News aired as a “special report” on the network.

One of the strongest moments Kamala Harris had during her often confrontational interview with Fox News on Wednesday came when the vice president forcefully defended democracy and hit back at Donald Trump’s increasingly dark rhetoric, according to a New York Times reporter and CNN contributor.

Lulu Garcia-Navarro made the analysis shortly after Harris appeared in her first formal interview with Fox News in the battleground state of Pennsylvania, which Garcia-Navarro said went “really good.”

Vice President Kamala Harris found herself under heavy fire from the word go when she sat for an interview with Fox News host Bret Baier, who pressed her on everything from immigration to transgender rights to the economy and sought to soften Trump's threats to use the military on his political opponents when Harris broached the subject.

But while Harris knew she was in unfriendly territory going on the nation's largest right-leaning cable network, she had a very distinct plan going into it, CNN media analyst Brian Stelter said on a panel afterward.

Kamala Harris pushed back Wednesday evening during a Fox News interview when the network’s chief political anchor played a clip of Donald Trump that was set up after the vice president spoke about the dangers of Trump’s “enemy of the people” rhetoric.

“He’s the one who talks about an enemy within – an enemy within – talking about the American people, suggesting he would turn the American military on the American people,” Harris told host Bret Baier in an interview that aired Wednesday, her first formal interview with the network.

Vice President Kamala Harris sat for a tense and confrontational interview with Fox News host Bret Baier, during which they clashed on topics including immigration, President Joe Biden's fitness for office and former President Donald Trump's threats against his political opponents.

The interview marked Harris' first on the network and was part of a broader media circuit as she tries to reach voters who may have seen little of her. The interview generated a strong reaction from commenters on social media — many of whom were stunned by the way Baier constantly tried to talk over her and steer the conversation in favor of pro-Trump talking points.

As soon as Vice President Kamala Harris' interview with Fox News host Bret Baier began, the two sparred on the topic of immigration — with Harris reminding Baier that the Biden administration fought for a comprehensive border security solution only for former President Donald Trump to work behind the scenes to kill it.

"When you came into office, your administration immediately reversed a number of Trump border policies," said Baier, specifically noting the Remain in Mexico policy. "Looking back, do you regret the decision to terminate Remain in Mexico at the beginning of your administration?"
