President Joe Biden squashed Vice President Kamala Harris’s efforts to distance herself from her administration’s failures over the past three and a half years.
On Wednesday, Biden said the quiet part out loud and admitted what we all knew to be true: as “Vice President, there wasn’t a single thing that I did that she couldn’t do.”
While stumping for Harris on The View, Biden appeared to blame Harris for the failures the U.S. is facing, such as crime, immigration, and inflation.
“So I was able to delegate her responsibility on everything from foreign policy to domestic policy,” he said.
The president’s remarks contradict everything Harris has said since becoming the Democratic presidential nominee.
“Clearly I am not Joe Biden, and I am certainly not Donald Trump, and what I do offer is a new generation of leadership for our country,” Harris said earlier this month.
Harris has also tried to distance herself from other aspects of the Biden Administration, such as the botched Afghanistan withdrawal, the economy, and the ongoing southern border crisis.
