Kamala Harris can't point to “a thing” she would have done differently than Joe Biden. During her Tuesday appearance on The View, the vice president said she would have made the same decisions as the president had she been in charge the last four years. “I've been a part of most of the decisions that have had impact,” the Democratic nominee told the left-leaning panel of the talk show.

When pressed about the “specific” changes she would have made if she was in charge, Harris told co-host Sunny Hostin, “There is not a thing that comes to mind.” “I've been a part of most of the decisions that have had impact,” she added. The Democratic nominee also noted, “We’re obviously two different people,” adding that “I will bring those sensibilities to how I lead.”

Harris went on to tout the administration's policies in capping the cost of insulin, saying, “Allowing Medicare to negotiate drug prices and bring the cost of prescription medication down for seniors, but my intention is to expand that for all Americans.” “The work we have done to invest in American industries, whether it be in terms of manufacturing and creating almost 800,000 new jobs around manufacturing, those were all a shared priority.”

“So the border crisis, massive inflation, a war in Ukraine and Israel, massive flooding & people stranded…Nothing comes to her feeble DEI brain?” remarked a second user. One more said, “Harris admits she was involved in most of the decisions in this administration. A vote for Harris is “MORE OF THE SAME” We have WARS breaking out across the world and the disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan is good with her!”
