Shapiro Supports Claims Against Harris’ Book

Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro spoke with MS NOW, addressing remarks made in former Vice President Kamala Harris’ new book where he feels she misrepresented his sentiments. Shapiro firmly stated that he stands by his original critiques of the book’s content, which he believes inaccurately reflects his feelings.

In a recent interview, Shapiro reiterated the importance of his words, saying, “I think the way the author expressed my feelings was not accurate, but the words are mine.” He was responding to an excerpt from Harris’ book, “107 Days,” that discusses their interactions during the vetting process for her potential role as a running mate in the 2024 presidential race.

Harris claimed in her book that Shapiro had many questions for her team, including trivial inquiries like how to get a Pennsylvania artist’s work from the Smithsonian. She implied that he wanted to control decision-making, reminding him that “the vice president is not a co-president.” When asked about these claims, Shapiro expressed disbelief, calling her account “totally absurd” and a “blatant lie.”

Shapiro suggested that Harris might be attempting to distract from her past comments by promoting her book. “I get it; she’s trying to sell books,” he added, while assuring viewers that what she wrote about him was simply untrue. His recollections of their exchanges differ significantly from her portrayals.

When questioned if he was positioning himself for a presidential run, Shapiro denied any such intentions. “I was simply responding to what the vice president said about my comments being completely untrue,” he explained. He acknowledged Harris’ experience but emphasized the need to focus on current issues rather than past disagreements.

Shapiro is seen as a potential candidate for the Democratic nomination in 2028 due to his role in a crucial battleground state. Meanwhile, Fox News Digital has reached out to Harris’ team for a response.
