Ex-Trump aide loved Kamala Harris’ interview answer on policy changes — here’s why

A Republican loyalist is defending Vice President Kamala Harris over her response to questions about policy given in a recent interview.

During last week's sit-down with CNN's Dana Bash, Harris was asked about some of her positions that have changed over the years. Harris said the specifics may have changed, but her values did not.

Former White House communications director Alyssa Farah Griffin, who worked for Donald Trump, returned with her colleagues on "The View" on Tuesday and said that Harris' answers in the interview were perfect.

"I'm a Republican," she confessed, for those who didn't already know. "I've never voted for a Democrat, and I've been listening to how she's campaigning and what she's talking about to see how I could get there."

She explained that in 2020, the brief campaign Harris ran involved issues Griffin said she couldn't support.

"But now she's talking differently, and I think this is why," Griffin continued.

"I entered the former administration — where I served in the White House and the DOD [Department of Defense] — as a lot more far right than I am now. And then I started getting intel briefings. I started to realize, you are a public servant of all Americans and no one side has all the right answers.

"She kind of alluded to this when she sat down with CNN's Dana Bash. Now she has more information, and her values haven't changed, but the way to get there has."

It made Griffin think that Harris is much more to the center than she initially considered her.

Co-host Joy Behar asked if it meant she was going to vote for Harris, and Griffin confessed that she is "still a while out" but is getting closer to voting for her first Democrat.
