Sen. Adam Schiff (D-CA) argued that former Vice President Kamala Harris was unable to distance herself from the “status quo” in the 2024 election, which ultimately cost her the victory against President Donald Trump.

Schiff was asked if he felt that former President Joe Biden’s aides and advisers had misled voters on Biden’s capacity to continue serving as president, as the former president suspended his reelection bid in July — just over 100 days before Election Day. In response, the senator contended he could only answer based on his own interactions with the president but that Biden made “the right decision” to withdraw from the race against Trump.
