An edited video circulating on Instagram claims that Vice President Kamala Harris called President Joe Biden “unstable” when asked about his mental fitness. However, the original footage shows that Harris was actually referring to former President Donald Trump as “unstable.” During an interview with Fox News anchor Bret Baier, Harris made it clear that she believed Trump, not Biden, had mental health issues. Baier specifically asked about Trump’s mental fitness, to which Harris responded by calling him “unstable.” The conversation then shifted to Biden, with Baier asking when Harris first noticed any decline in his mental faculties. Harris praised Biden’s experience and judgment, emphasizing that he is capable of making important decisions on behalf of the American people. The original interview transcript and a CNN article both confirm the context of the conversation. The claim that Harris criticized Biden’s mental fitness in the video is deemed false, as she was actually discussing Trump. PolitiFact also debunked the claim, emphasizing the importance of fact-checking and verifying information before sharing it.
