During an appearance on ABC's "The View" on Oct. 8, Harris wanted to present herself as the candidate of change. But unfortunately, she struggled to articulate her answers when she faced repeated questions on a key campaign issue: "What sets her apart from President Joe Biden?"
In her guesting on "The View," host Sunny Hostin asked the Democratic presidential nominee for the "biggest specific difference" between a Harris and Biden presidency.
"Well, we're obviously two different people, and we have a lot of shared life experiences," Harris said, sidestepping the question. "For example, the way we feel about our family and or parents and so on. But we're also different people, and I will bring those sensibilities to how I lead." (Related: Kamala Harris supported a total handgun ban when she was San Francisco DA.)
However, Hostin pressed further and asked if there were any actions or policies of the Biden administration that she would have handled differently.
"There is not a thing that comes to mind," Harris said. "And I've been part of most of the decisions that have had an impact."
She then continues to highlight her alignment with the achievements of the Biden administration, pointing to investments in American manufacturing and the capping of insulin costs for seniors at $35 a month. She added that she would expand these policies if elected.
Then later, Harris added that the only thing she would change from anything that Biden has done in the last four years is having a Republican in her cabinet.
"Listen, I plan on having a Republican in my cabinet," Harris said. "You asked me, what's the difference between Joe Biden and me? Well, that will be one of the differences. I'm going to have a Republican in my cabinet because I don't – I don't feel burdened by letting pride get in the way of a good idea."
Trump and Vance criticize Harris for giving "dumb answers"
These answers were immediately criticized by former President Donald Trump and his vice presidential running mate, Sen. J.D. Vance (R-OH).
In a social media post on X, Trump listed issues like the border crisis, the Afghanistan withdrawal, inflation, the war in Ukraine and the recent Hamas attack on Israel as matters Harris should have addressed in the interview.
"Lyin' Kamala, who is being exposed as a 'dummy' every time she does a show, just stated to the degenerates on 'The View' that she would have done nothing different than Crooked Joe Biden, the worst president in the history of the United States," said Trump. "The Lamestream Media doesn't want to pick up the story, the dumb women on the show wish they never asked her the question that led to that election-defying answer, but the internet is going wild."
Vance also weighed in and stated that Harris' lack of a quick response suggested she had not given enough thought to the policies of the Biden administration.
"You'd think after all this time, all this time of thinking about how she would do things differently from Joe Biden, she would have a well-prepared answer for the interviewers on "The View." Well, they ask her one thing you would do differently from Joe Biden, you know what she says, 'I can't really think of anything off the top of my head,'" Vance said. "Now, in her defense, I'm not sure she could think of anything off the top of her head, whether about Joe Biden's policies or anything else."
