Kamala has been asked on numerous occasions about her inability to recognize the obvious cognitive decline of Biden. Most recently by Hallie Jackson during an interview Harris gave to NBC News
"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?"
"Of course," Harris responded. "Joe Biden is an extremely accomplished, experienced and capable in every way that anyone would want if they're president."
"You never saw anything like what happened at the debate night behind closed doors with him?" Jackson followed.
"It was a bad debate. People have bad debates," Harris replied.
But that's the reason why you're here and he's not running for the top of the ticket," Jackson said.
"Well, you'd have to ask him if that's the only reason why," Harris responded.
"What do you think?" Jackson then asked.
"I'm running for President of the United States. Joe Biden is not," Harris said. "And my presidency will be about bringing a new generation of leadership to America that is focused on the work that we need to do to invest in the ambitions and aspirations of the American people."
That's why I ask. Can the American people trust you in these moments, even when it's maybe uncomfortable… to level with Americans in that way? So that's why I ask," Jackson said. "And it sounds like what you're saying is you feel like you never saw anything like that from President Biden."
"I have worked with Joe Biden, whether- hours and hours and hours over these four years, whether it be in the Situation Room or the Oval Office… I speak with not only sincerity, but with a real firsthand account of watching him do this work. I have no reluctance in saying that. No, of course I don't." Harris said.
