According to a recent report, Democrat Vice President Kamala Harris has expressed her readiness to assume the top job. This comes at a time when concerns about President Joe Biden’s age and physical and mental fitness have caused panic among Democrats. However, many Americans are still curious about when Harris will actually step up to fulfill her role as Vice President.
Harris made this statement during a recent interview conducted last week. It is worth noting that her remarks were made just before the release of Special Counsel Robert Hur’s report on Biden’s mishandling of classified documents, where Hur described the president’s memory as having “significant limitations.” Hur further explained that pursuing charges against Biden would be futile, as a jury would perceive him as a confused elderly individual.
“I am ready to serve. There’s no question about that,” Harris told The Wall Street Journal, adding that everyone who observes her work “walks away fully aware of my capacity to lead.”
Biden’s actions regarding the mishandling of classified documents were not recommended for charges in Hur’s report. The report stated that Biden could potentially have a defense at trial due to being perceived as a sympathetic, well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory.
Since the release of the Hur report, Republicans have criticized Biden. However, Democrats have also started expressing, or at least acknowledging, greater concerns about Biden’s age and how it could impact his chances of winning re-election this year.
James Carville, former President Bill Clinton’s lead strategist, has cautioned that Democrats are losing confidence in Biden. Carville further argued on Saturday that the White House has little faith in Biden, especially after he declined a Super Bowl Sunday interview.
“It’s the biggest television audience, not even close, and you get a chance to do a 20-25-minute interview on that day,” Carville said.
“And you don’t do it?
“That’s a kind of sign that the staff, or yourself, doesn’t have much confidence in you.
“There’s no other way to read this.”
