In a series of interviews this morning after her speech at the Democratic National Convention, Jill Biden, vice-presidential candidate Democratic nominee Kamala Harris said, was her choice to also win the so-called “cattle stakes” in 2020.
“Kamala is fiery and she’s strong, and she’s tough,” former second lady hosts Mika Brzezinski, Joe Scarborough and Willie Geist told MSNBC’s Morning Joe. “She will be a good debater, and more than that she will be a good partner for Joe.”

Biden, who admires strong women, said Harris is what her husband needs in the White House: “a partner to govern him.”
“He always said that he and Barack had a really close relationship and that they shared the same values. And that’s what he has with Kamala,” she remarked.
Earlier on “CBS This Morning”, Jill Biden told host Gayle King that the Democrats “have a great ticket.”
Harris, the junior U.S. senator from California and former attorney general, will speak at the DNC on Wednesday night alongside Massachusetts Democratic Senator Elizabeth Warren, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, former President Barack Obama and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.
On Tuesday, with only 76 days until the November election, former Vice President Joe Biden was officially named the Democratic presidential nominee.
But his status as a left-wing frontrunner was not always clear. Geist asked Jill Biden about the previous achievements of the campaign in states such as Iowa and New Hampshire.
She replied that although it was a “difficult time”, her husband “was always optimistic.”
“He said to me, ‘Jill, stop. Wait. Wait until we get to South Carolina.’ And, then we went to South Carolina and South Carolina gave us wings, ”she reminded her. “Well, I feel like we’re flying.”
