Harris will have to ‘face off’ against Biden, his legacy in debate against Trump: NYT columnist
Fox News
A New York Times opinion piece claimed that Vice President Kamala Harris' toughest opponent in the upcoming debate is President Biden, not former President Trump.
"Harris will have to face off against President Biden — his record, his shifting public approval rating and their intertwined legacies — from now until Election Day. Her supporters are eager to watch her 'prosecute the case' against Trump in their debate. But when it comes to the Biden years, Harris is both prosecutor and defendant, reformer and institutionalist, contrast and continuity. And that's a harder sell," Times opinion columnist Carlos Lozada wrote. Nikolas Lanum is an associate editor for Fox News Digital.
Describing her dilemma as "simple but awkward," Lozada suggested that Harris can either own the accomplishments of the Biden administration and risk criticism on inflation and the border, or distance herself and appear as a "nonfactor" as vice president.
