The Hill reports:
President Trump on Tuesday said Sen. Kamala Harris (D-Calif.) was his “number one pick” to be named presumptive Democratic nominee Joe Biden’s running mate, knocking her unsuccessful presidential bid and complaining at length that she was “nasty” to Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh.
“She was my number one pick. I mean she was… my number one draft pick, and we’ll see how she works out,” Trump said in his first public comments since Biden announced Harris as his running mate earlier Tuesday.
He went on to argue Harris was “nasty” to Biden during the primaries as well. “She was very very nasty, she was probably nastier than even Pocahontas to Joe Biden,” Trump added, referring to Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.)
