Vice President Kamala Harris recently spoke out in support of President Joe Biden's qualifications to serve as president. During an interview with NBC News, Harris commended Biden for his extensive experience and capabilities, describing him as 'extremely accomplished in every way that anyone would want of their president.'
Addressing concerns raised about Biden's performance in a debate earlier this year, Harris acknowledged that 'people have bad debates' and downplayed the significance of that particular event. She also dismissed the notion that the debate played a pivotal role in her becoming the Democratic nominee, suggesting that other factors were likely at play.
While asserting her own presidential ambitions and vision for a new generation of leadership in America, Harris differentiated herself from Biden, who faced questions about his age during his candidacy. At 81 years old, Biden is the oldest president in U.S. history.
Despite the age-related inquiries, Harris stood by Biden, highlighting their close collaboration and praising his accomplishments, relationships on the global stage, and progress on various agenda items. She expressed unwavering confidence in Biden's abilities, citing her firsthand observations of his work and stating, 'I have no reluctance in saying that.'
