In Interview, Kamala Harris Says She Will Appoint a Republican to Her Cabinet

Palm Springs, CA

Today, Presidential Candidate Kamala Harris made headlines with her first television interview with CNN’s Dana Bash since securing the top spot on the Democratic ticket, signaling a strategic shift toward the political center.

In the interview, Harris pledged to appoint a Republican to her Cabinet if elected, a move she believes will enrich the decision-making process with a diverse range of political perspectives. She stated, “I have spent my career inviting diversity of opinion… It’s crucial to have a variety of viewpoints and experiences at the table when making significant decisions. Having a Republican in my Cabinet would benefit the American public.”

This gesture could enhance Harris’s appeal to Republicans disenchanted with the MAGA movement. Earlier this month, the Harris campaign launched the “Republicans For Harris” initiative, which has garnered significant support from prominent figures within the GOP. Notable endorsements include former Trump White House officials Stephanie Grisham and Olivia Troye, as well as former Secretaries Chuck Hagel and Ray LaHood. The group also features former Governors Jim Edgar, Bill Weld, and Christine Todd Whitman, along with ex-U.S. House members like Rod Chandler, Tom Coleman, and Adam Kinzinger. Additionally, former GOP State Chair and State Senator Chris Vance and a host of other Republicans have shown their support.
