Former VP Harris says Biden didn't want to debate Trump in 2024

During a 2025 interview, Kamala Harris avoided directly addressing Joe Biden's cognitive decline despite public concerns following his 2024 campaign and debate performance.

  • On Wednesday, ABC's Sarah Ferguson challenged Kamala Harris for a `world-class pivot` after Harris avoided a direct question about Joe Biden's frailties during the ABC TV interview.
  • As part of a media tour promoting her memoir, 107 Days, Kamala Harris appeared on Steven Bartlett's Diary of a CEO podcast on Oct. 30, reflecting on the 2024 campaign.
  • Harris said `He called me from debate camp and I could tell something was a little off, and I was concerned` and added that Joe Biden, then-President during the June 2024 debate, `didn't want that debate`.
  • Harris's dodge prompted observers to cite a broader Democratic reckoning as the interview grew awkward with Harris criticizing President Donald Trump and sidestepping questions about Biden.
  • With the interview fallout, Kamala Harris, former Vice President, asserted `I am not done` while touring the country promoting 107 Days, fueling 2028 presidential speculation as she said she might run `Possibly` and wants to `offer something as president.
