US Vice President Kamala Harris said she is ready to serve her country.
Harris said Americans who follow her work understand that she is capable of leading.
"Anyone who sees me at work concludes that I am fully capable of leading," the vice president said during the interview, which took place two days before the release of special counsel Hurr's report assessing the 81-year-old president's memory problems. year old.
Robert Hurr, who led an investigation into classified documents in the possession of then-Vice President Biden, did not prosecute the current president, arguing in his report that a court would be reluctant to convict "an old man with a bad memory." A day after the Hurr report was released, Vice President Harris stood by her political boss, speaking of "political motivations" and praising the Biden presidency.
The scathing satire aimed at Biden's age, as well as Trump's, was launched by popular TV host John Stewart on his show Monday night. "What are we doing here? This guy, the president of the United States, didn't remember much in his testimony. Do you understand what this means? He didn't remember key evidence during questioning," Stewart said, referring to Biden's testimony before special counsel Hurr.
However, soon after, the moderator broadcast a video of Trump, in which the former president does not remember what year he married his ex-wife, despite the fact that a few minutes earlier he boasted that he has the best memory in the world .
"This is an example of premature senile dementia according to the prosecution's evidence," Stewart said.
"They are both objectively old! They are at an age where you don't expect anything special anymore. They have pensioner IDs, they have health care, they have discounts at the movies. These are the two oldest presidential candidates in the history of the country," he concluded. .
At the same time, little difference separates Biden and Trump in the latest polls for the November elections. A poll conducted after the publication of the special counsel Hurr's report on behalf of Reuters showed that the intention to vote for Trump is at 37% and for Biden at 34%.
The poll finds that criminal prosecutions against Trump have significantly hurt his approval ratings, with 25% of Republican voters and 50% of independents saying they would not vote for him if he is convicted by a jury of a crime.
