Vice President Kamala Harris appeared to struggle again with a question regarding how her administration would differ from that of the Biden-Harris regime during an interview with NBC News broadcast.
In her sit-down with anchor Hallie Jackson, Harris also had some difficulty responding to a question about President Joe Biden’s obvious mental decline since taking office, his ability to continue serving, and his dismal debate performance against former President Donald Trump in June.
“The reason that you are at the top of this ticket is because he dropped out of this race,” Jackson told Harris before adding: “You defended him in the days before and the days after as you were campaigning for another four years for President Biden.”
Harris claimed that Biden was still fit to serve despite the fact that it is plain for Americans to see that his mental and physical declines are pronounced at this stage.
“Can you say that you were honest with the American people about what you saw in those moments with President Biden as you were with him again and again repeatedly in that time?” Jackson asked.
Remarkably, Harris responded: “Of course. Joe Biden is an extremely accomplished, experienced, and capable in every way that anyone would want if they’re president.” As for his performance against Trump, Harris added, “It was a bad debate.”
Jackson reminded Harris again that Biden’s debate is “the reason you’re here and he’s not running for the top of the ticket.” Going back to her original question, Jackson asked: “It’s a judgment question, that’s why I ask. Can the American people trust you in these moments?”
Harris then struggled to repeat previously stated platitudes about Biden’s “superior” leadership abilities and “unrivaled” work ethic.
WATCH:
Harris faced tough questions from a reporter earlier this week regarding the recent escalation in the Gaza conflict following the death of Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar.
During a press briefing in Detroit on Saturday after a campaign event, Harris responded to reporters’ inquiries. Since Sinwar’s death earlier this week, she has commended Israel for eliminating the notorious leader while also calling for peace in the region.
Since declaring her candidacy, Harris has encountered backlash from the pro-Palestine faction of the Democratic Party regarding the Biden administration’s stance on Israel. A reporter inquired whether the Gaza issue could jeopardize her chances in the election.
Here’s how the exchange went:
REPORTER: There’s a lot of churn and turmoil within the Arab-American and Muslim communities here in Michigan. Do you think you could lose the election because of Gaza and what. You know, overnight there were more strikes. 32 more people were killed in Gaza, some in hospitals. You know, how risky is it that you could lose the election?
HARRIS: Well, it is undeniable that it is something that everyone is aware of. What is happening there. I speak publicly all the time about the fact that there are so many tragic stories coming from Gaza. And of course, the first in this phase of everything that has happened. The first most tragic story is October 7th. And what happened that day and then what has happened since. And I think what’s critically important as we look at this moment is one acknowledging the tragedy of what has happened in Gaza in terms of the extraordinary number of innocent Palestinians who have been killed. And taking that seriously and speaking truth about that. In addition, of course, to what I said about what happened on October 7th, in terms of 1200 innocent Israelis being slaughtered, women being horribly raped, and then fast forwarding to today with the killing of Sinwar. This creates an opening that I believe we must take full advantage of to dedicate ourselves to ending this war and bringing the hostages home.
REPORTER: That is not working so far.
HARRIS: You know what? Listen, as it relates to the issues in the Middle East and in particular in that region, it has never been easy. But that doesn’t mean we give up, okay? It is always going to be difficult. It does not mean we give up. We can’t give up.
