Kamala Harris called Anderson Cooper a [redacted] after tense interview on Biden's debate meltdown: bombshell book
New York Post ^ | May 23, 2025 | Anna Young

Former Vice President Kamala Harris blasted Anderson Cooper as a [redacted] to colleagues following a tense interview over former President Joe Biden's catastrophic debate performance against Donald Trump last year, a bombshell new book revealed.

The then-veep unleashed the disparaging remark after the CNN host grilled her on Biden's cognitive health immediately following his disastrous showing in June -- that ignited widespread panic and ultimately led to the octogenarian dropping out of the race.

"This [redacted] doesn't treat me like the [redacted] vice president of the United States, she said to colleagues," according to the new book "Original Sin," co-authored by Anderson's CNN colleague Jake Tapper and Alex Thompson...

Harris, who was encouraged by her aides to cancel all post-debate interviews after her boss appeared frail and stone-faced, often losing his train of thought while going toe-to-toe with Trump, downplayed concerns from her party when she appeared on CNN.

Cooper spoke of Democrats describing "panic" over Biden's "disaster" or "train wreck" of a debate. He questioned if the president should step aside.

Harris fought back, telling the anchor that Biden had a "slow start" but finished "strong."

"People can debate on style points," she added when pressed by Cooper.

"I got the point that you're making about a one-and-a-half-hour debate tonight -- I'm talking about three and a half years of performance and work that has been historic."

...Tapper and Thompson wrote that Harris took Cooper's questions, which reflected the nation's concerns, personally.

It's also part of the book tour PR -- it's a way to boost sales among readers (older conservatives) while giving some profession backscratching for JT's CNN colleague, the albino fairy.

I used [redacted] because of the “frpottymouths” Karen on FR — this way the topic stays up. :^)

LOL!

And I wholeheartedly agree — she was another puppet, picked just in case Biden died (in whatever circumstances) or was removed (by whatever means) during his term in office.

The good news is, their Old Switcheroo in 2024 didn’t work, and a lot of lives were saved, because we didn’t have to storm every state house, and DC, and DNC HQ, and many city halls, while the police state apparatus was opening fire.

Well, to be fair, you didn’t act like a [redacted] Vice-president.

Lol. That was funny, I don't care who you are.
