Kamala Harris Has Trouble Defining Vice President’s Job in ‘The Late Show with Stephen Colbert’ Appearance
Breitbart ^ | 03/16/2023 | David NG

Posted on 03/16/2023 8:44:30 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Battling persistently low approval ratings across party lines, Vice President Kamala Harris (D) appeared Wednesday on CBS’ The Late Show with Stephen Colbert in the latest attempt to burnish her public image. But Harris stumbled badly when she seemed either unable or unwilling to define the vice president’s job.

During the awkward exchange, host Stephen Colbert asked Harris to explain “what is the actual role on a daily basis” of the vice president.

Harris avoided answering the question by praising President Joe Biden (D). “Well, I have the great privilege of serving with Joe Biden, who is president of the United States,” she said to thunderous applause from the studio audience.”Right! Right! Exactly right. Exactly right.”

She added: “And was vice president.”

Colbert replied: “Does he understand what it’s like to be vice president?”

Far-lefty interviewed by another far-lefty — and she still screws it up.

Even with Colbert and his audience of trained seals on hand to coach her and encourage her, Harris embarrassed herself. Even Democrats must be cringing at the thought of her running for POTUS after Biden is finally led away.

To be fair, it isn’t really much of a job. Preside over the Senate when it is equally divided, and be alive if/when the President dies. V.P. Garner summed the job as “Not being worth a bucket of warm piss.”

And they were LYING.

Again.

As usual.

It's an interesting question, though. What IS the Vice President's job? They never act as "President of the Senate", the only Constitutional VP task I can think of.

RE: Not much of a job

In recent years the President has often assigned particularly difficult problems to the VP. Pence was assigned covid and several other things. Harris was given the border and something else. She hasn't done a single thing.

“Well, I have the great privilege of serving with Joe Biden, who is president of the United States,”

Talking to 6yr olds again.

Why would anyone ask a prostitute a serious question and expect an answer that can be comprehended by the average person?

The VP is just, to use former Prince Harry Markel’s words, a “spare”. LOL

Well, she is an idiot, so there’s that.

Just another partisan, moronic interviewer interviewing a moronic interviewee . . .

To be fair, everyone has trouble defining the Vice President’s job.
