Kamala Harris is in a bit of a box.
She’s trying to run for office, acting as though she hasn’t been occupying office for the past three-plus years. She acts as though she isn’t responsible for the things done in her own administration that she signed aboard. Heck, she was even the deciding vote for the legislation that many believed sparked Bidenflation in 2021, the American Rescue Plan.
So now Axios is reporting that she is going to try to reboot herself and run away from that record to help herself in the election. But that’s going to be hard to do, particularly when President Joe Biden is saying she’s not going to do that, as he did during questioning on Thursday.
Peter Doocy and other reporters managed to get in a few questions as Biden was leaving for Maryland to talk about the economy with Harris. Doocy asked how much “does it bother you” if Harris starts to “distance herself” from him on the economy.
