Former Vice President Kamala Harris recalled during a recent interview how then-President Joe Biden had “angered” her in the moments leading up to her one debate with President Donald Trump.

Harris told podcast host Steven Bartlett (“Diary of a CEO”) that Biden had called her prior to the debate, but that instead of giving her the encouragement and advice she expected, he’d made it clear to her that he was thinking only of himself.

“I’m in the hotel room with Doug, with my husband, and the president calls,” Harris began. “And I was told that he wanted to call me so that I’d be ready, and I was so sure it was to buck me up and ‘go get him!'”

“He did say that for the first beat. And then he went on to talk about a group of people in Pennsylvania who were saying bad things about me because they heard I was saying bad thing about him,” Harris continued. “And when I hung up the phone, I was just, I was, it was unbelievable! And I was yes, I was angry! And deeply disappointed.”

Harris went on to explain that she’d actually wanted Biden to give her some pointers: “It just. It was so unnecessary. There are only two people in the world other than me that has debated this guy, Hillary Clinton and him. And you know what it’s like, it’s … Going into a debate with the stakes being that high and Trump hadn’t agreed to another debate, the stakes were so high. So that’s an example of what I mean.”

“You took something from that. You took an underlying message about one’s intentions from that, because I would,” Bartlett prompted Harris to follow that thought to its logical conclusion. “If someone called me in the lead up to debate prep and said something like that to me, I would assume that they don’t want the best for me.”

“My takeaway is his motivation was all about himself,” Harris replied.

“That’s what I would assume from that,” Bartlett agreed.

“Obviously, right. Yeah. It wasn’t about my performance at the debate,” Harris said.

Bartlett took the argument a bit further, asking, “Do you think he wanted you to win the election?”

Harris said that she did believe Biden wanted her to win, but she thought that his motives had been selfish: “I do because I was the only one who would be able to preserve his legacy.”

“But even that’s about him,” Bartlett noted.

“Well, if I had to assume one of the reasons why he’d want me to win. If– yeah,” she said.

Governor Gavin Newsom (D-CA) appeared desperate to evade any and all questions about his support for former President Joe Biden — support that continued even after it became painfully obvious that Biden was declining rapidly.

Newsom repeatedly dodged questions on that topic during a Sunday morning appearance on “Meet the Press,” attempting to change the subject every time host Kristen Welker raised another question about the former president.

WATCH:

Gavin Newsom slithers around in an attempt to explain why he’s defended Joe Biden’s capacity to serve a second term:

Welker: You stood by him till the end. Did you ever have concerns about his capacity to serve another four years?

Newsom: “I never had that.”

“You stood by him till the end, after that disastrous debate performance, even when top Democrats were calling for him to step down,” Welker began. “Did you ever have concerns, Governor, about his capacity to serve another four years?”

“I go home with the one that —” Newsom attempted to use the expression that he’d “dance with the one who brought him,” and then added, “I never had that — I just talked to the president a few hours ago. I’ve been privileged to have a relationship with the president.”

“Governor, Did you legitimately believe that he was capable of serving as president until January of 2029?” Welker tried again.

“Yeah, I think my focus was frankly situational,” Newsom replied, not really answering the question. “I was making sure Donald Trump didn’t get back into office to experience everything that we’re experiencing today, and there was no interaction that I had that suggested otherwise.”

“What do you say to Americans who feel misled by you and other top Democrats?” Welker asked.

“Misled in what respect? He decided to step down —” Newsom protested.

“About the mental acuity of President Biden, they wish you had sounded the alarm sooner to give way for a convention,” Welker continued.

“I never experienced — I’m not going to substitute myself for someone else,” Newsom said. “Or for popular opinion. I’m going to express my relationship to my truth with the former President of the United States, including at the end of his term, quite literally in December, which was a master class in foreign policy and domestic policy, which I will never forget as we walk through not just the election but when we’re walking through the world we’re living in. There was nothing to suggest what you just said or, or others have suggested in terms of my interaction. That’s all I can be accountable for.”
