Former Vice President Kamala Harris was pressed by an Australian journalist this week after repeatedly avoiding questions about former President Joe Biden’s health and her own role in his administration, prompting the interviewer to accuse her of delivering a “world-class pivot,” as reported by Fox News.
During an interview with the Australian Broadcasting Corporation’s Sarah Ferguson, Harris was questioned about her responsibility for not addressing public concerns over Biden’s cognitive and physical health during his presidency.
The exchange took place during Harris’s international tour promoting her new memoir, 107 Days, which recounts her brief 2024 presidential campaign.
“Didn’t you also have a responsibility?” Ferguson asked. “You were one of the people in the room…. Didn’t you have a responsibility as an American to step up and say something at that point?”
“I did not question Joe Biden’s capacity to be president at all,” Harris said.
Ferguson followed up, pressing Harris on whether Biden’s alleged refusal to acknowledge his own limitations had placed her in an “impossible position” during the election.
Harris shifted the discussion toward her campaign against President Donald Trump, claiming she ran against him because of what she called “misrepresentations” to voters.

Interrupting, Ferguson responded:
“I want to interrupt you because that is a world-class pivot, but it is not the question that I asked you, which is about Joe Biden’s failure to recognize his own frailties and what that did to you. The question is about Joe Biden. Are you still reluctant to criticize the former president?”
“In what regard, please?” Harris replied, asking Ferguson to clarify.
Ferguson then asked whether Biden’s inability to acknowledge his age and condition had hindered her during the 2024 election cycle. “He was not frail as president of the United States,” Harris insisted.
“But he had frailties,” Ferguson shot back. “We all saw the debate.”
“I do believe that Joe Biden had the capacity to be president of the United States, and I have never doubted that he had the capacity to be president of the United States,” Harris said.
“If you want to talk about whether he had the ability to endure what a race for president of the United States would require in that political environment in 2024, as I’ve said in the book, I had concerns.”
When Ferguson asked whether Harris was being less candid in the interview than she had been in her book, Harris pushed back. “Of course not. I wouldn’t have written the book if I didn’t want to be frank about that,” she said.
The exchange ended with Ferguson asking, “Does it make you angry that former President Biden still says he would have won?”
“I… am focused on the present,” Harris responded, declining to elaborate.
The tense back-and-forth quickly spread online, with clips of the “world-class pivot” exchange gaining traction across social media platforms following the interview’s airing earlier this week.
