Vice President JD Vance has had some choice words for Kamala Harris in a recent interview that comes right after she revealed something Trump said to her.
The VP appeared in an interview with Laura Ingraham on Fox News for The Ingraham Angle on Friday, when he was asked about former Vice President Harris’ new memoir, 107 Days, which tells all about her presidential campaign in 2024.
In particular, Ingraham quoted a moment when Harris called Vance ‘a juvenile and shapeshifter’ when Vance let loose about his own opinion of her.
Vance and Harris were not very interactive in person during the elections; however, they did make mention of each other from time to time when up on the podium.

For Vance, he’s been clear that he doesn’t think she has what it takes to be a political leader, but now, he’s expanded on that claim with a far more scathing remark.
“She is now blaming the campaign, her loss, for the fact that it was short,” the Fox News host claimed. “That’s one of the main things she cites. If she had more time, she could have gotten more traction.”
To this, Vance said: “The problem is not that Kamala’s campaign was too short. It was too long. When people actually listened to what she had to say, per polling, it went down and down and down.
"A 150-day campaign, three additional senators, and Donald Trump would have won by an even bigger landslide."
During the 2024 election, Trump won 312 electoral votes and Harris won 226.
Vance said that the votes speak for themselves, and it was a matter of people coming to their own conclusions, the more she spoke.
“The more people know about Kamala Harris, the more they realize there is no substance there,” Vance said.
“When we disagreed with Barack Obama or Bill Clinton, they actually had substance. They could actually articulate the viewpoint. I listen to Kamala Harris for 90 seconds and I actually feel like I’ve gotten dumber in the process, and I have no idea what she actually believes.”
He went on to say she doesn’t know how to speak to her audience, saying: “That’s the problem with Kamala Harris, and it’s going to continue to be the problem unless she actually learns how to develop a viewpoint and articulate it for the American people.”
His chat comes after Harris made her own comments about Trump in her book, specifically speaking of the time after his second assassination attempt made by Ryan Routh.
She claimed that while Trump would say bad things about her in public, when it came to talking with her behind closed doors, all he had to say were good things.
He allegedly said to her when she spoke to him after the incident: "How do I say bad things about you now? I'm going to tone it down. I will. You're going to see."
Trump also is said to have admitted that his daughter Ivanka was a 'big fan' of Harris'.
However, Harris didn’t buy it.
"He’s a con man. He’s really good at it," Harris wrote, per The Guardian.
