Kamala Harris Drinks Beer With Stephen Colbert in ‘Late Show’ Appearance; Vice President says Donald Trump is being ‘played’ by dictators – watch clip

Kamala Harris ended a day-long media frenzy with an appearance Late Show with Stephen Colbertin which she repeated some of her harsh criticisms of Donald Trump and spoke of the “whirlwind” of a presidential election campaign.

According to excerpts of the interview from a pool report, the meeting between Harris and Colbert was amicable, to the point that they shared a Miller high life.

Colbert also praised her debate performance with Trump and asked what she was thinking in a picture from that evening in which she had her chin resting on her hand.

“It’s family TV, right? “It starts with a W, there’s a letter in between, then the last letter is an F,” Harris said.

Colbert also asked about some revelations from Bob Woodward’s upcoming book “War.” The Washington Post and other media reported today that Woodward writes in the book that Trump has had seven conversations with Russian President Vladimir Putin since leaving office. Trump’s campaign has attacked Woodward and his book.

Harris said: “I heard about it today. I haven’t read it. But look, I said during the debate, Donald Trump – he openly admires dictators and authoritarians. He said he wanted to be a dictator from day one if elected president again. He’s played by these guys. He admires so-called strong men and is taken advantage of because they flatter him or show him favor.”

Harris also pointed to another passage in Woodward’s book that Trump sent tests to Putin in the early days of Covid.

“If everything I’ve heard about Bob Woodward’s book is true, then Donald Trump secretly sent Covid test kits to Putin for his personal use.” I ask everyone here and everyone watching: Do you remember those days? Remember how many people didn’t have tests and tried to get them?”

She added: “Think about what this means in addition to him sending love letters to Kim Jong Un.” No, think about it. He thinks, “Well, that’s his friend.” What about the American people? They should be your first friend.”

Like Jimmy Kimmel, who had Tim Walz on his show Monday night, Colbert has attended campaign events for Joe Biden and Kamala Harris. He hosted a fundraiser with Biden and former Presidents Barack Obama and Bill Clinton in March, when the president was still running for re-election.
