Vice President Kamala Harris ended a media tour by cracking a cold one with late-night host Stephen Colbert.
The pair talked politics Tuesday while drinking Miller High Life from cans on “The Late Show” in front of his CBS studio audience in Manhattan, The New York Times reported.
“The champagne of beers,” Harris said as Colbert stated that was the brand she requested.
“The last time I had beer was at a baseball game with Doug,” she said, referring to her husband, Doug Emhoff.
Miller High Life is brewed in Wisconsin, one of the battleground states for this election.
Harris and Colbert also talked politics such as the war in Gaza.
“We cannot lose some belief in the possibility” of a cease-fire, she said. “The United States must work and not lose hope and not throw up our hands.”
Her attention then went to her political foe — former President Donald Trump.
She criticized the Republican presidential candidate over what journalist Bob Woodward wrote in his new book.
Woodward that claimed Trump sent COVID-19 tests to Russian President Vladimir Putin in the infancy of the pandemic.
“I ask everyone here and everyone who is watching: Do you remember what those days were like?” Harris said, as she pointed out the death rate during that time. “You remember how many people did not have tests and were trying to scramble to get them?”
“He thinks Vladimir Putin is his friend. What about the American people? They should be your first friend,” Harris said.
Her interview on “The Late Show” rounded out the media blitz over the past few days.
Harris appeared live on ABC’s “The View” earlier Tuesday.
She talked about her new proposal on home health care.
She also said Trump lacked “empathy on a very basic level.”
She then talked to radio host Howard Stern.
While on “The Late Show,” Harris criticized Trump for dispensing false information in the days after Hurricane Helene.
She also told Floridians to follow the advice from local authorities as Hurricane Milton races towards the Sunshine State.
“Have you no empathy, man,” she said of Trump.
When Colbert asked Harris about a photograph he showed of her from during the debate with Trump as she put her hand to her chin.
“It’s family TV, right?” Harris said. “It starts with a W, there’s a letter between it, then the last letter’s F.”
