Democratic Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro was asked to name one policy difference between President Biden and his running mate, Vice President Harris, on NBC's “Meet the Press” Sunday, but he didn't answer.
“According to the latest NBC News poll, more voters are concerned that Vice President Harris will continue Joe Biden's approach than they are that Donald Trump will continue the approach from his first term. That's a lot,” host Kristen Welker pointed out to Shapiro, before asking if Harris had “done enough.” Will he distance himself from President Biden? ”
“You know, Kristen, what's clear is this is not a race between Kamala Harris and Joe Biden, this is a race between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump. And on top of that, obviously There is a stark contrast,” Shapiro said, continuing to speak. Not the differences between Harris and Biden, but some of the differences between the presidential candidates.
“I understand what you're saying, Governor, but polls show that more Americans feel President Biden's policies are hurting them more than helping them. “So, can you name one major policy difference between a vice president and a vice president?” Welker answered, then asked, “So, can you name one major policy difference between a vice president and a vice president?” What is the difference between President Harris and President Biden? ”
