Kamala Harris Reportedly Exploded After Anderson Cooper Interview [WATCH]

Kamala Harris allegedly erupted behind the scenes following a CNN interview with Anderson Cooper last year, referring to the network host as a “motherf**ker” and accusing him of failing to show her the respect due to her office.

The outburst reportedly followed a heated exchange regarding President Joe Biden’s performance during a nationally televised debate.

The incident, which is detailed in the new book Original Sin by CNN’s Jake Tapper and Axios reporter Alex Thompson, took place shortly after Biden’s widely criticized debate appearance.

According to the authors, Harris reacted strongly to what she perceived as disrespectful treatment during the interview and shared her frustrations with staff members afterward.

“This motherf**ker doesn’t treat me like the damn vice president of the United States,” Harris reportedly said, according to the book.

During the June 2024 CNN segment, Cooper pressed Harris on whether Joe Biden should consider stepping aside following the debate, which had raised concerns across the political spectrum regarding Biden’s cognitive health.

Cooper referred to widespread reports of panic within the Democratic Party and cited sources who described the debate as a “disaster” and a “train wreck.”

Harris defended the president’s performance, describing it as having a “slow start” but finishing “strong.”

“People can debate on style points,” Harris said during the interview.

“I got the point that you’re making about a one-and-a-half-hour debate tonight — I’m talking about three and a half years of performance and work that has been historic.”

Tapper and Thompson wrote that although Cooper had posed questions that were being asked by the public and members of Biden’s own party, Harris took the exchange personally and was visibly upset after the interview ended.

The reported exchange adds to ongoing scrutiny surrounding Biden’s inner circle, especially as concerns about his health and fitness for office continue to mount.

Last week, the former president revealed he had been diagnosed with late-stage prostate cancer, news that has further amplified discussion about the state of leadership within the Democratic Party during the final years of Biden’s administration.

The fallout from the 2024 debate performance was widespread.

Prominent Democrats privately and publicly questioned whether Biden should continue his re-election bid, while others moved to close ranks and offer support.

Harris was among the officials who attempted to project unity and defend Biden’s record during a challenging period for the administration.

The Original Sin book, which provides an insider’s account of Biden’s presidency and the role of key figures around him, has uncovered multiple episodes that point to behind-the-scenes tension and concerns within the Democratic leadership.

Harris’s reaction to Cooper’s questioning reflects broader frustration within the administration over media coverage and public scrutiny following Biden’s public appearances.

The revelations come amid increased attention on Harris’s role in the administration and speculation about her political future following her time as vice president.
