However, he does agree with his running mate, Donald Trump, that she is a "chameleon."
Republican vice presidential nominee JD Vance told CNN on Sunday that he believes Vice President Kamala Harris “is whatever she says she is” in regard to her racial identity, while also agreeing with his running mate, Donald Trump, that she is a “chameleon.”
“She pretends to be one thing in front of one audience, she pretends to be something different in front of another audience,” Vance said to “State of the Union” co-anchor Dana Bash. “Look, Dana, she’s not running a political campaign, she’s running a movie.”
Vance’s remarks come after Trump said last month that Harris “happened to turn Black” during an appearance at the National Association of Black Journalists convention.
The Democratic presidential nominee, who is the daughter of a Jamaican father and an Indian mother, has long identified as a Black woman.
Vance also called Harris a “fundamentally fake person” because of her changing positions on policies like fracking, immigration and funding police, saying, “She should have to answer for why she presents a different set of policies to one audience and a different set of policies to another audience.”
