Vice President Harris acknowledged Wednesday that she is “fucking scared” about Donald Trump winning in 2024, saying “we should all be scared.”
“The View” co-host Joy Behar asked Harris about recent concerns expressed by former President Barack Obama and former first lady Michelle Obama about Trump's possible victory. “Are you scared?” Behar asked. “What would happen if Trump became president again?”
“I'm really scared,” she answered. “There's an old saying that there's only two ways to run for office, if you have no opposition or if you're scared. So in all of these ways, yes, we're all scared. But as we know, and certainly, this is a problem.''It's a table of very powerful women, so we don't run away from something when we're scared, we fight back against it. ”
Her co-hosts and the audience applauded her remarks.

“We're all starting to narrow down what this election means, and frankly, in the midst of so many big issues facing our world, it's hard to imagine a dichotomy. It's not just one side or the other. There's a split screen and you can show it and see it. And it's about what it means to respect democracy, what it means to have the ability, the confusion and the It will be a choice between chaos,” she said.
