Despite groveling coverage of Vice President Kamala Harris by the liberal press, she still needs to solve an intricate puzzle: how to distance herself from President Joe Biden’s failed and unpopular economic record, all of which she supported, while at the same time not actually changing any underlying policy.

So far, she has stalled for time and still has not given a substantive interview or press conference since she helped push Biden out of the race. Even the most supplicant press corps in a generation is getting impatient with Harris’s refusal to answer even the most basic questions about public policy.
