Biden Boasts of 'Constant Contact' with Kamala Harris Amidst Campaign Divide

President Biden joined an impromptu White House press briefing, asserting regular communication with Vice President Harris amidst reports of distancing within the campaign.

President Joe Biden made an unexpected appearance at the White House press briefing on Friday, addressing queries on various topics and emphasizing his close connection with Vice President Kamala Harris. Biden's comments came amid reports of a widening gulf between the two, as the Harris campaign attempts to differentiate itself from the Biden administration's policies and performance.

"Well, she's, I'm in constant contact with her. She's aware we all, we're singing from the same song sheet. We, she helped pass all the laws that are being employed," Biden remarked.

The President portrayed Harris as deeply engaged in the administration's agenda, despite her campaign's efforts to distance itself from aspects such as economic policies, border control, and inflation.

"Now, she was a major player in everything we've done, including passage of legislation which we were told we could never pass. And so she's been, and her, her staff is interlocked with mine in terms of all the things we're doing," Biden continued.

Biden's remarks contrasted with reports that Harris would seek to separate herself from the Biden administration in order to bolster her own presidential campaign. Axios reported that this distancing began in August as inflation and other challenges weighed heavily on the Biden presidency.

However, Biden has reportedly expressed irritation at Harris's efforts to create distance, hinting that he could have prevailed in the 2024 election had he not dropped out.

"I never fully believed the assertions that somehow there was this overwhelming reluctance to my running again. The fact of the matter is, my polling was always in range of beating [Trump]," Biden said during an appearance on "The View."

Biden's unexpected press briefing appearance coincided with Harris's own campaign event, raising questions about potential communication issues or an attempt to overshadow her candidacy.

The Harris campaign has reduced references to Biden in recent weeks, with her running mate, Gov. Tim Walz, only mentioning "the Biden-Harris administration" during the Vice Presidential Debate.

The Harris campaign has yet to respond to Fox News Digital's request for comment. The evolving relationship between Biden and Harris will be closely watched as the 2024 presidential election unfolds.
