Kamala Harris Declares Herself ‘Most Qualified Candidate in U.S. History,’ Fox News Anchor Destroys Her [WATCH]

Kamala Harris drew widespread attention last week after declaring during an interview that she may be the “most qualified” person ever to run for president.

Harris made the remarks during an interview with journalist Kara Swisher, recorded before a live audience, in which she listed her previous positions in public office as evidence of her credentials.

“The fact that I was elected District Attorney for two terms as the first woman elected Attorney General of the state of California,” Harris said.

“I ran the second largest department of justice in the United States, second only to the United States Department of Justice.”

She continued by noting her election to the U.S. Senate and her position in the current administration.

“I was the United States Senator, second black woman elected in the history of the United States Senate,” Harris said, drawing applause from the crowd.

“I was the first woman vice president of the United States.”

Harris then added, “Some people have said I was the most qualified candidate ever to run for president,” prompting another round of cheers from the audience.

The comments quickly spread online, where critics and political commentators questioned her claim and compared her résumé to previous U.S. presidents and presidential contenders.

Fox News anchor Dana Perino was among those who responded, pointing to historical examples of leaders with longer or more diverse experience in government.

“Thomas Jefferson wrote the Declaration of Independence, served as governor of Virginia, minister to France, secretary of state and vice president and we could go on and on,” Perino said.

She continued, “George H. W. Bush: congressman, ambassador, envoy to China, CIA director, VP, WWII combat pilot.” Perino added, “And even Joe Biden had more qualifications than she did.”

Harris’s interview comes as she continues to face scrutiny over her leadership record and approval ratings heading into the 2024 general election.

Democrats formally selected her as their presidential nominee in July 2024 following Joe Biden’s decision to step aside after months of internal debate within the party.

Before becoming vice president, Harris served as California’s attorney general from 2011 to 2017 and as a U.S. senator from 2017 until her inauguration as vice president in January 2021.

Her record as attorney general included high-profile initiatives on criminal justice reform, consumer protection, and environmental enforcement, though she has faced criticism from both political opponents and progressive activists over her handling of certain cases during that period.

During the interview, Harris emphasized her career trajectory as proof of her qualifications and experience in national leadership.

“I ran the second largest department of justice in the United States,” she said again while reflecting on her tenure as California’s attorney general.

“I was the United States senator, second black woman elected in the history of the United States Senate.”

The vice president’s comments follow a series of recent public appearances aimed at reintroducing her to voters in key battleground states ahead of the general election.

Her campaign has focused on themes of equality, economic opportunity, and national security, while opponents have criticized her for what they describe as a lack of clarity and consistency on policy issues.

As Harris continues to campaign for the presidency, her claim of being the “most qualified candidate ever to run for president” remains a focal point of political discussion.

The remark has generated both strong support from Democratic audiences and pointed skepticism from across the political spectrum.
