Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro (D) offered some advice to Vice President Kamala Harris ahead of Tuesday’s debate with former President Donald Trump.
“Don’t underestimate Donald Trump” was the advice Shapiro gave Friday during an appearance on “The View.”
Shapiro, who was being considered as Harris’ running mate, called Trump a “skilled debater,” Mediaite reported.
“Listen, as much as we want to criticize Donald Trump — he’s a liar, he’s all these things. I think you said it before — people know Donald Trump,” Shapiro said. “He is a skilled debater. He is a guy who is willing to say anything at any time just to get through a question. And he’s a showman. He’s been on TV before.
So, don’t underestimate Donald Trump.”
Shapiro also did not downplay any of Harris’ strengths.
“Now, I’ve known Kamala Harris 20 years. She is tough as nails. She’s a prosecutor. She’ll be prepared, as was said before,” Shapiro said. “She’ll be ready to go. But this is going to be a tough debate now.”
