In yet another episode of “there’s no way Kamala is actually doing that,” Sunny Hostin, a co-host of ABC’s “The View” and noted leftist, teed up what she obviously thought would be the perfect opportunity for Kamala to distance herself from the Biden Administration’s failures and explain how she will be different, but Kamala failed to give anything even approaching a substantive answer.
President Joe Biden, as background, recently connected VP Harris to all that his administration has done, saying, “Well, she’s, I’m in constant contact with her. She’s aware we all, we’re singing from the same song sheet. We, she helped pass all the laws that are being employed.” He continued, “Now, she was a major player in everything we’ve done, including passage of legislation which we were told we could never pass. And so she’s been, and her, her staff is interlocked with mine in terms of all the things we’re doing.”
Given how negatively many have reacted to the Biden Administration’s actions and the various issues of it, many saw that as a negative thing, as it connects VP Harris to the failures and issues of the Biden Administration all the more intimately, an obvious negative for Harris headed into the final month before the election.
So, Hostin teed up Harris to distance herself from the Biden Administration, asking, “As Vice President, you’ve worked very closely with President Biden for almost four years. He was here on our show, and he said there wasn’t a single thing he did that you could not do. What do you think would be the biggest specific difference between your presidency and a Bidency — a Biden presidency?”
Harris didn’t give anything approaching a real answer. She began, “Well, obviously, we’re two different people, and we have a lot of shared life experiences, for example, the way we feel about our family and our parents and so on.” She continued, “But we’re also different people and I will bring those sensibilities to how I lead.”
So, Hostin tried again, and tried to get Kamala to at least go off on the worst things the Biden Administration has done or experienced, asking in what cases she would have acted differently. Hostin asked, “If anything, would you have done something differently than President Biden during the past four years?”
Harris once again didn’t give Hostin what she was fishing for. Instead, Kamala said that there is nothing she can think of that she would do differently than President Biden. She said, “There is not a thing that comes to mind, in terms of … and I’ve been a part of — of most of the decisions that have had impact.”

She added, “Um, the work that we have done, for example, capping the cost of insulin at $35 a month for our seniors, is something I care deeply about.” She also said, “The work we have done to invest in American industries, whether it be in terms of manufacturing and creating almost 800,000 new jobs around manufacturing.” Watch her here:
