Former Vice President Kamala Harris suggested during a Thursday podcast appearance that former President Joe Biden "didn't want" to debate President Donald Trump in 2024. She added that "something was a little off" prior to the former president's now-infamous debate performance, which ultimately ended his campaign.
"He [Biden] called me from debate camp. The president did, Biden did. And I could tell something was a little off," Harris recalled. "And I was concerned about… I don't think he wanted to debate is my point. He didn't want that debate."
"Diary of a CEO" podcast host Steven Bartlett noted that "it was so apparently clear" that something was "not OK" with Biden during the 2024 debate, and pressed the former vice president on why "the Democratic side of politics was pretending everything was okay."
"You must have known," Bartlett told Harris.
