CNN political commentator Scott Jennings on Tuesday criticized Vice President Kamala Harris for trying to “erase all evidence” that she is a “border czar” and for constantly changing her stance on key issues.
Alyssa Farah Griffin, Trump’s former White House communications director, suggested on “CNN Newsnight with Abby Phillips” that Democrats could put Republicans at a disadvantage on immigration.
She said it was “actually true” that Harris claimed Democrats wanted more Customs and Border Protection agents and were ready to fight the fentanyl epidemic before Republicans rejected “the most conservative border bill in decades.”
Jennings responded to Griffin by saying he didn’t believe Democrats could fight former President Trump to a “tie” on immigration.
Harris maintains Biden is fit to remain in office despite more than 80 documented contacts with her over the past year

“Run all the ads about immigration so that every time the American people turn on the TV they’re reminded what a complete failure this has been,” he said.
“If they are so proud of their record, why [Harris] “Was she trying so hard to wipe all evidence from the internet that she was a border control officer?” he added.
Jennings then asked former Ohio Sen. Nina Turner if she was “disappointed” that Harris was “trying to deny and run away” from all the key issues she made in the 2019 election.
“To an extent,” Turner responded, “she has an opportunity as first chair. She has a chance. Scott, I look at this as an opportunity. Certainly, to hear that she might abandon her support for Medicare for All, that doesn’t make me happy. But she will have an opportunity to really make a decision as first chair.”

A week after announcing her own presidential candidacy following President Biden’s withdrawal, Harris has been backing away from some of the far-left positions she previously promoted.
On fracking, which is particularly important to the economy of Pennsylvania, a key battleground state in the 2024 presidential election, the Harris campaign shifted tack on Friday. A source from her reelection campaign told The Hill that she would not seek a ban on fracking if elected president.
Meanwhile, a Harris campaign official told The New York Times this week that Harris now supports the Biden administration’s budget request for increased funding for the Border Patrol, no longer opposes single-payer health care and supports Biden’s call for an assault weapons ban but opposes requiring private gun owners to sell those guns to the federal government.
