Watch: Liz Warren Raises Eyebrows When Asked if Kamala Should Be Biden’s Running Mate in 2024

Share

Back in 2019, Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) was certain that she had what it took to win the Democratic nomination for president, in what turned out to be a crowded field that included former Senator/Vice President Joe Biden and Warren’s Senate colleague Kamala Harris (D-Calif.).

While both Harris’ and Warren’s campaigns ultimately fizzled, Biden, of course, went on to win the nomination and eventually picked Harris as his running mate after being heavily pressured by prominent woke backers to choose a black woman.

Though Warren had expressed interest in and had reportedly been in contention (but obviously lost out to Harris) for the veep nod, she jumped on board the Biden-Harris train quickly, gushing about how she and Harris were old buddies from back in 2008.

But two years later, Warren’s bitterness over losing boiled over when she was quoted in a book as saying that many people told her after the 2020 election that she would have had their vote and maybe could have won the nomination if she’d “had a penis.”

And now, as speculation swirls as to when Joe Biden will officially announce his reelection plans, Warren is speaking out – confirming as she did last fall that she strongly supports Biden. But on whether she supports Harris being Biden’s running mate in 2024, Warren has suddenly turned very non-committal:

“I really want to defer to what makes Biden comfortable on his team,” she said. “I’ve known Kamala for a long time. I like Kamala. I knew her back when she was an attorney general and I was still teaching and we worked on the housing crisis together, so we go way back. But they need — they have to be a team, and my sense is they are — I don’t mean that by suggesting I think there are any problems. I think they are.”
