Harris said on the left-leaning talk show that she would not change anything from President Joe Biden’s term of office, despite his job approval tanking over his three-year span. 

The panel of hosts asked the 2024 Democrat nominee if she would have done anything “differently” than Biden. 

“There is not a thing that comes to mind in terms of — and I’ve been a part of — of the decisions that have had impact,” responded Harris.

Meanwhile, Donald Trump’s team has tried to tie Harris with the Biden administration, with the 46th president averaging a poor 41.3% job approval, according to RealClearPolitics.

The Trump campaign took advantage of Harris’ statement by calling out the administration’s disastrous decisions during its tenure, causing an angry reaction on social media. 

“This is enraging to every veteran who was forced to watch Afghanistan go up in smoke while 13 more troops died because of incompetent decision making,” one X user reacted.

“That includes three years of wide open borders. Vote accordingly,” another said.

“The Trump campaign needs this in ads today,” yet another urged.

On her campaign trail, Harris has tried to establish herself as the candidate of change, although having been in Washington since 2017, first as a California senator and then as vice president.

“We’re obviously two different people and we have a lot of shared life experiences, for example how we feel about our family and our parents and so on,” Harris said of Biden. “But we’re also different people and I will bring those sensibilities to how I lead.”

Later on in the interview, Harris repeated her vow to tap a Republican to serve in her cabinet “because I don’t, I don’t feel burdened by letting pride get in the way of a good idea.”

During another question, Harris claimed that former Arizona Senator John McCain had endorsed her to become president, despite the fact that the 2008 GOP nominee died in 2018. 

“Look, I just recently did an event with Liz Cheney, the former congresswoman, her father, the former Vice President Dick Cheney has supported me. There are over 200 former members of both Bush presidencies, John McCain, Mitt Romney, who have endorsed me,” Harris said.

Mitt Romney has also not endorsed Harris, but did applaud her performance in her debate against Donald Trump on September 10th
