Even In Softball Colbert Interview, Kamala Still Fails To Distance Herself From Biden’s Failures

The Democratic Party and its allies in the mainstream media have been overt in their efforts to paint Kamala Harris as a new direction as if she hasn’t spent nearly four years serving alongside Joe Biden.

She has been sitting down with a lot more interviews, albeit only with friendly hosts, but has so far not been able to explain to voters how a Harris administration would differ from the Biden administration.

As Fox News reported:

Harris sat down for a friendly interview with “Late Show” host Stephen Colbert, who pointed to polls showing voters want the 2024 election to be about change.

“You are a member of the present administration, but under a Harris administration, what would the major changes be, and what would stay the same?” Colbert asked.

“Sure, well I’m obviously not Joe Biden,” Harris responded.

“I’ve noticed,” Colbert quipped.

“So that would be one change in terms of – but also I think it’s important to say with 28 days to go, I’m not Donald Trump,” Harris said, sparking cheers from the liberal audience.

“And so when we think about the significance of what this next generation of leadership looks like, were I to be elected president, it is about – frankly, I love the American people, and I believe in our country. I love that it is our character and nature to be an ambitious people. You know, we have aspirations, we have dreams. We have incredible work ethic. And I just believe that we can create and build upon the success we’ve achieved in a way that we continue to grow opportunity and in that way, grow the strength of our nation,” Harris continued before touting her “opportunity economy” pitch and talking about her small business owner mother.

There’s plenty of social media evidence that voters are tying Harris to Biden’s overwhelmingly unpopular record:

The Biden-Harris Administration's failure to secure the border puts the safety of American citizens at risk AND threatens election integrity.

Her “Late Show” remarks seemed to amplify the message she sent during an interview on ABC’s “The View.”

The “media blitz” ends as a catastrophic failure causing tremendous damage to Harris.

She already said on The View that there’s no difference between her and Biden. Why would anyone think she’d bother inventing a new answer as the day went on?

As National Review reported:

Harris appeared on The View Monday morning and host Sunny Hostin lightly asked her if there was something she would have handled differently from Biden, an important question for Harris down the stretch of the presidential campaign.

“There is not a thing that comes to mind,” Harris said. “I’ve been a part of most of the decisions that have had impact.”

Later on, Harris revisited the topic and sought to distinguish herself from Biden by reiterating her promise to appoint a Republican to her cabinet.

A number of prominent anti-Trump Republicans have endorsed Harris’s campaign, including former vice president Dick Cheney and his daughter, former Representative Liz Cheney (Wyo.), who previously criticized Harris’s progressive stances but now focuses her ire on Trump. Former senator Jeff Flake of Arizona, a vocal critic of Trump during his time in the upper chamber, served as the Biden administration’s ambassador to Turkey until he left his post last month.

Here’s a relevant clip from Harris’ appearance on the daytime talk show:

No only did Kamala Harris say she wouldn't do anything different from Joe Biden (meaning her presidency would another four years of this crap), she said she's "been a part of most of the decisions that have had impact", implicating herself in the Biden administration's failures. pic.twitter.com/eE4noj1NzK
