Sen. J.D. Vance (R-OH) had some scathing words for Vice President Kamala Harris as the Democrat gears up to replace her boss, President Joe Biden .
“Joe Biden has been the worst President in my lifetime and Kamala Harris has been right there with him every step of the way,” former President Donald Trump’s running mate posted on X on Sunday. “Over the last four years she co-signed Biden's open border and green scam policies that drove up the cost of housing and groceries. She owns all of these failures, and she lied for nearly four years about Biden's mental capacity — saddling the nation with a president who can't do the job.”
Minutes after Biden gave in to Democrats' pleas on Sunday to withdraw his bid for reelection, he endorsed Harris for the presidency. Harris announced her intention to make her own run for the White House shortly thereafter.
“I am honored to have the President’s endorsement and my intention is to earn and win this nomination,” Harris said in a statement to X.
Widely seen as the favorite to win the Democratic nomination, the feud between the presidential hopeful and Vance was ongoing even before Biden announced his decision to step down.
While speaking during an event in North Carolina earlier this week, Harris slammed the Hillbilly Elegy author for telling “a compelling story” during his speech at the Republican National Convention, but “not the full story.”
Vance often touts his roots as a rags-to-riches American dream story. After a difficult childhood, the Ohio Republican joined the Marine Corps, later joining forces with Big Tech in Silicon Valley as a venture capitalist. The leader of the so-called New Right is also known for his hard-line nationalist views on immigration and trade.
Harris explained her attack on Vance during her speech to North Carolina voters. “What is very telling is what he did not talk about on that stage. He did not talk about Project 2025, their 900-page blueprint for a second Trump term. He did not talk about it because their plans are extreme and they are divisive,” Harris told supporters on Thursday.

Trump has repeatedly disavowed the conservative Project 2025. Two days later, Vance leveled his own attack at Harris during a campaign rally with Trump in Michigan.
“The vice president — Kamala Harris — she doesn’t like me,” Vance said to crowds. “Kamala Harris said something to the effect that I have no loyalty to this country. Well, I don’t know Kamala. I did serve in the United States Marine Corps and built a business. What the hell have you done other than collect a check?”
