Kamala Harris Admits ‘Frustration’ During Charlamagne Tha God Interview

The two found themselves in a heated exchange earlier this month.

Vice President Kamala Harris recently admitted she was frustrated during her recent appearance on Charlamagne tha God’s show, Tha God's Honest Truth. The politician appeared to look a bit tense during their discussion after the radio show host questioned who the “real president” was.

During a new interview with CBS News, which aired Sunday (Dec. 26), Harris told reporter Margaret Brennan that she felt “frustration” during their conversation after Brennan recalled the appearance.

Harris and Charlamagne found themselves in a heated exchange during the Dec. 18 episode after the longtime host posed the question, “So who's the real president of this country, is it Joe Manchin or Joe Biden?” Charlamagne’s curiosity seemed to have stemmed from Manchin’s opposition to crucial aspects of Biden’s agenda, making legislation difficult to pass in a 50-50 split Senate.

“Come on, Charlamagne,” a visibly irked Harris fired back. “No, no, no, no. It's Joe Biden," she said. "And don't start talking like a Republican about asking whether or not he's president. It's Joe Biden. And I'm vice president, and my name is Kamala Harris.” Following the question, Harris seemed angry, prompting an aide to cut the interview short.
