Vice President Kamala Harris stumbled over her words during her first interview as the Democratic Party’s presidential nominee on Thursday while she attempted to explain her sudden policy changes with an election just a couple of months away.

Harris made the remarks during a CNN interview when asked by host Dana Bash if voters should “feel comfortable and confident that what you’re saying now is gonna be your policy moving forward.”

“I think the most important and most significant aspect of my policy perspective and decisions is my values have not changed. You mentioned the Green New Deal,” she said. “I have always believed and I have worked on it, that the climate crisis is real, that it is an urgent matter to which we should apply metrics that include holding ourselves to deadlines around time.”

She then admitted that the “Inflation Reduction Act” was really a massive green energy spending bill — which experts said did nothing to stop inflation.
