Things got a bit awkward when Sarah Ferguson, a TV reporter for Australia’s ABC TV, called ex-Vice President Kamala Harris out for a “world-class pivot” away from a question about former President Joe Biden’s cognitive decline during a Wednesday interview.
“Wasn’t [Biden’s] refusal to recognize his own frailties the reason that you faced a nearly impossible task?” Ferguson asked about Harris’s doomed 2024 presidential bid.
Harris took the opportunity to bash President Donald Trump and avoided talking about Biden.
“Donald Trump ran on a platform that was, in large part, I believe, misrepresenting his intentions to the American people,” Harris said.
She said a “fair amount” of MAGA voters were lied to by Trump on inflation and other issues. Harris then said Trump’s “misrepresentation of intention” and “massive amounts of mis-and-disinformation” contributed to her loss, before Ferguson jumped in to point out she avoided the question.
“Forgive me… I want to interrupt you, because that is a world-class pivot,” Ferguson said. “But it is not the question that I asked you, which is about Joe Biden’s failure to recognize his own frailties and what that did to you. The question is about Joe Biden. Are you still reluctant to criticize the former president?”
“In what regard, please?” Harris replied.
“Well just in terms of that question, so—” Ferguson started, before being cut off.
“What exactly would you like to ask? Be more specific, if you don’t mind,” Harris said.
Ferguson, for a third time, asked, “Was it Joe Biden’s decision, his failure to recognize his own frailties in that position, that put you in the position that made it almost impossible to win that race?”
Harris said she disagreed with the assessment, saying she “never doubted” Biden “had the capacity to be the president of the United States.” But she then said she had “concerns” about Biden’s “ability to endure” a presidential campaign.
Ferguson, a moment later, said she had a hard time buying that logic.
“I think it’s just hard, watching the debate, to see how there could not be a problem long term with someone who can’t marshal their thoughts,” Ferguson said.
Harris said she was not “shying away” from the topic, and that is why she wrote about it in her new book, 107 Days.
The ex-VP has been on an extended media tour promoting her book recently. Standout moments from the tour include Harris saying she was perhaps the “most qualified” person to run for president in U.S. history. Harris also blasted the Trump Administration while in Los Angeles, saying “These mothaf*ckas are crazy!”
