On Tuesday’s broadcast of CNN’s “The Supply,” Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) reacted to 2024 Democratic presidential candidate Vice President Kamala Harris saying that there’s nothing she would have performed in another way than President Joe Biden by stating that “on home points, President Biden has in all probability been probably the most progressive president since Franklin Delano Roosevelt. … And Kamala Harris has been at his aspect all through that complete course of and he or she deserves the credit score.”
After Sanders mentioned that he thinks Harris must be extra aggressive on financial points, host Kaitlan Collins requested, “I ponder what you made, Senator, then, final week, after we heard from Harris, when she was requested what she would have performed in another way than Biden had she been president. Initially, she mentioned nothing got here to thoughts. Then she mentioned placing a Republican in her Cupboard, one thing she’s pledged to do. However, out of your vantage level, do you suppose that was sufficient of a course correction that she provided to voters?”
Sanders responded, “Effectively, frankly, it’s no nice secret, I occur to imagine that, on home points, President Biden has in all probability been probably the most progressive president since Franklin Delano Roosevelt. And I feel he’s performed quite a lot of good work in quite a lot of areas, which I feel he isn’t getting the type of credit score that he deserves [for]. And Kamala Harris has been at his aspect all through that complete course of and he or she deserves the credit score. I feel it’s no nice secret, that the realm that I and quite a lot of people do have disagreements with within the Biden administration is the conflict in Gaza.”
