Vice President Kamala Harris has so far been deferential to President Joe Biden after his decision to relinquish the 2024 Democratic nomination, but she is starting to have to grapple with the political repercussions of his record on her campaign.

Harris has had a slow rollout of her policy platform, only announcing last weekend her support for former President Donald Trump‘s no-tax-on-tips proposal and promising more information this week on her economic positions after rolling back more liberal stances she has previously held.

But her appearance with Biden on Thursday, their first since he stepped down, may remind the public she is an incumbent as a member of his administration, not the change agent her campaign is trying to portray her as.
