'Come on,' VP Harris said. 'No, no, no, no, no.' Why the vice president responded so forcefully to who the 'real' president is.
"Come on, Charlamagne, come on. It's Joe Biden. No, no, no no, no,” Harris said. “No. No. No. No. It’s Joe Biden, and don’t start talking like a Republican about asking whether or not he’s president.”
Harris then returned to composure as she cataloged the administration’s policy priorities that it has passed into law or that it’s looking to enact, including criminal justice reform, cleaning up drinking water, investing in public transit and lowering prescription drug costs. But of course Charlamagne’s inquiry wasn’t about the literal matter of who inhabits the White House, but rather which figureover legislation in the Senate, most recently over the Build Back Better Act. Harris and many top Democrats are alarmed about these kinds of narratives: As the administration faces strong political headwinds, they’re concerned the public will not understand what they’ve accomplished and what they should get credit for as the midterm elections approach.
