Harris appeared on comedian Jon Stewart’s podcast, “The Weekly Show with Jon Stewart,” to discuss her new book, “107 Days,” and her relationship with Biden.

“I care about him deeply, and I did not want to pile on with all the criticism that he was facing,” she said. “I did not fully understand how big of an issue it was for some people for me to distinguish myself from him. I felt that the the distinction between he and I was pretty clear.”

Harris then defended the former president, which shocked Stewart.

“I believe he was fully competent to serve,” she said.

“Do you really?” Stewart responded.

“Yeah, I do,” Harris said.

“That surprises me actually,” Stewart said.
