Media Miss by the left: Kamala Harris insists Joe Biden was ‘fully competent’ to serve second term in Jon Stewart interview

Former Vice President Kamala Harris says she believes former President Joe Biden was fit to serve another term, despite handing the 2024 campaign over to her just a few months before Election Day.

During an interview on comedian Jon Stewart’s podcast, Harris said, “I believe he was fully competent to serve.”

When Stewart expressed surprise at her admission, she added, “There’s a distinction to be made between running for president and being a president.”

“I think it’s a hard case to make for people that he didn’t have the stamina to run, but he had the stamina to govern,” Stewart countered.
