However, there&#8217;s one\u200b topic he surprisingly didn&#8217;t\u2062 want\u200c to discuss in a recent interview:\u2063 Vice President Kamala \u2063Harris&#8217; tenure.<\/p>\n<p>In the interview with NBC News, Brown, along with\u200c Republican Arnold \u2064Schwarzenegger, praised President Joe Biden but <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/homeless-man-accused-of-setting-249-year-old-san-gabriel-mission-on-fire-pleads-not-guilty\/\" title=\"Homeless Man Accused Of Setting 249-Year-Old San Gabriel Mission On Fire Pleads Not Guilty\">remained tight-lipped<\/a> about Harris. When asked about her, Brown stiffened and simply said, &#8220;I do\u200b not have a thought \u2063on that topic.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Given that Harris is the\u2063 most powerful \u2063Democrat in California&#8217;s history,\u2062 this response is quite telling. It could be because Brown is aligned with California \u200cGovernor Gavin Newsom, who is seen as Harris&#8217; main challenger in the 2028 Democratic primaries. Or perhaps it&#8217;s because Harris&#8217; popularity in the polls is even lower than Biden&#8217;s.<\/p>\n<p>Regardless of the reason, it&#8217;s clear that Brown is not confident in Harris&#8217; political chances.\u2062 When a former governor\u200c who knows California politics inside\u2064 and out refuses to endorse you, it&#8217;s time to reconsider your prospects.<\/p>\n<h3>Examples of Kamala\u200d Harris&#8217; Gaffes:<\/h3>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">KAMALA HARRIS: \u201cThe significance of the passage of time, right?

While Brown and\u2064 Republican\u200d Arnold\u2064 Schwarzenegger were\u2063 full of praise for President Joe \u2062Biden,\u2064 their\u2064 reluctance to talk about Harris speaks volumes.<\/p>\n<p>Harris, as the most\u2063 powerful Democrat in California&#8217;s history, deserves \u2062attention and discussion. However,\u200b Brown&#8217;s stiff reaction and his statement, &#8220;I do not have a thought on that topic,&#8221; suggest that\u200d he lacks confidence in Harris&#8217; political prospects.<\/p>\n<p>There could be several reasons for \u200bBrown&#8217;s reaction. One possibility is that Brown is aligned\u2063 with California Governor Gavin Newsom,\u200b who is seen as Harris&#8217; main rival in \u2062the 2028 Democratic \u2062primaries. Alternatively, it is worth\u200c considering\u200d that \u200dHarris&#8217; \u200dpopularity in the polls \u2064is lower than\u200d Biden&#8217;s.<\/p>\n<p>It is alarming when a former governor\u2064 with a \u2062deep understanding of California politics refuses to endorse someone. Brown,\u200c who knows \u2063the ins and outs of \u200bthe state&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/four-dangerous-new-democrat-bills-that-you-probably-havent-heard-of\/\" title=\"Four Dangerous New Democrat Bills That You Probably Haven\u2019t Heard Of\">political landscape<\/a>, clearly does not \u2063believe in Harris&#8217; chances. This should prompt Harris to reconsider her prospects and address any concerns that may exist.<\/p>\n<p>To further complicate matters, Harris has had \u200bher\u200b fair share of gaffes, as highlighted in examples such\u200b as her unclear statements on the significance of the \u200cpassage of time \u200cand her mishandling of questions about visiting the\u2063 border. These gaffes \u2064likely\u200c contribute\u2063 to Brown&#8217;s reluctance to\u2064 discuss her. If \u200ceven Joe \u200cBiden holds more esteem in Brown&#8217;s eyes, it is a clear sign for\u2063 Harris to reassess her \u200bchances and address any\u2064 issues that may hinder her <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/why-bother-mike-pence-hints-at-2024-run-after-betraying-president-trump-his-voters-and-america\/\" title=\"Why Bother? Mike Pence Hints at 2024 Run After Betraying President Trump, His Voters and America\">political future<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>In \u2063conclusion,\u200c former Governor Jerry Brown&#8217;s refusal to discuss Kamala Harris&#8217; tenure and \u200bhis lack of confidence in her political prospects should not \u200bbe \u2063taken lightly. Brown&#8217;s extensive knowledge of California politics\u2062 and his reluctance\u2064 to endorse\u2063 Harris send\u2064 a clear message.\u2062 Harris needs to address any\u200c concerns\u200c and\u200d improve\u200b her standing,\u200c especially considering the gaffes that have marred\u2062 her image. The road\u200b ahead will \u200cnot be \u200deasy, \u2063but\u200d it is certainly not impossible for Harris to regain confidence\u2063 and succeed in \u2064her \u200bpolitical career.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For 16 years, Jerry Brown was governor of California.
