Former Vice President Kamala Harris had some nasty things to say about CNN anchor Anderson Cooper after their 2024 interview, according to a new book.
CNN anchor Jake Tapper and Axios reporter Alex Thompson’s new book, "Original Sin," claimed that the former vice president called Cooper a "motherf-----" to her colleagues last summer following a tense interview the two had over former President Biden’s debate with then-GOP candidate Donald Trump.
"This motherf----- doesn’t treat me like the damn vice president of the United States, she said to colleagues," the excerpt read.
Harris allegedly added, "I thought we were better than that."
The account from Tapper and Thompson’s book provided details about Harris’ mood following the June interview where he grilled her over her boss’ dismal performance in his debate with Trump.
During the conversation, Cooper did not hold back, telling her there were Democratic lawmakers who lamented Biden’s performance.
"One said it was a disaster and another called it a trainwreck. Those are Democrats especially worried that Biden did not punch back on Trump‘s lies," he said.
