Biden's fitness for office was defended by Harris without any regrets.
When Harris spoke with Biden about dropping out of the race, he did not ask for her endorsement.
Kamala Harris continues to support Joe Biden's mental abilities, despite her own bid for the presidency.
Did you ask the vice president and 2024 Democratic presidential candidate if she regrets defending Biden's mental acuity during the first presidential debate, which sparked criticism?
Dana Bash was told by Harris that it was not at all true.
After Biden dropped out of the race, Harris became the top contender.
The debate led to traditional Democratic allies of the president joining conservatives in raising concerns about Biden's mental acuity and age, as he frequently stumbled over his words and lost his train of thought.
The vice president publicly supported Biden and secured his endorsement shortly after his own campaign ended.
When Harris was asked about Biden's initial endorsement of her to run in his place, she evaded the question.
Did you request an endorsement from Harris, Bash inquired?
Harris responded, "He made it clear that he would support me."
When Harris called to inform you, he stated, "I am withdrawing from the race and will be supporting you." Bash questioned him.
My first thought was not about myself, but rather him. I believe history will reveal that Joe Biden's presidency was transformative in many ways, such as investing in America's infrastructure, new economics, and industries. It will also show how he brought our allies back together and stood true to our principles, including the importance of sovereignty and territorial integrity.
Since becoming the presumptive nominee, Harris has not held any interviews, but on Thursday evening, she was joined by her running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, for a pre-taped CNN interview.
Since becoming the Democratic ticket candidate, Harris has mostly shied away from the media, answering media questions only occasionally and not holding any press conferences.
In the past two weeks, Biden has spent most of his time at beach properties in California and Delaware.
