Welp, that's on me for over-estimating American voters in 2025...

I should not have done that, that's my bad.

Vice President Kamala Harris was asked by the co-hosts of The View on Tuesday whether she would have done anything differently than President Biden, responding "not a thing comes to mind," before coming back to the question and adding that she plans to appoint a Republican to her Cabinet if she is elected in November.

"I'm going to have a Republican in my Cabinet," Harris said. "I feel burdened by letting pride get in the way of a good idea."

"You asked me what's the difference between Joe Biden and me, well that will be one of the differences," she added

Now, she does say she'd have a Republican in the cabinet and that makes her different...

But Biden went as far as saying he was considering a Republican as VP...

While campaigning in New Hampshire, Biden said that while he couldn't think of a specific Republican off the top of his head, there are "some really decent Republicans" but the more "well-known" members of the GOP need to "step up" against President Donald Trump.
