Vice President Kamala Harris hit back at Arkansas GOP Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders’ comments that Harris “doesn’t have anything keeping her humble” because she doesn’t have children.
“I don’t think she understands that there are a whole lot of women out here who, one, are not aspiring to be humble,” Harris, the Democratic presidential nominee, told “Call Her Daddy” podcast host Alex Cooper.
“Two,” she added in the taped interview, which aired Sunday, there are “a whole lot of women out here who have a lot of love in their life, family in their life and children in their life, and I think it’s really important for women to lift each other up.”
“We have our family by blood and then we have our family by love. And I have both,” Harris, who is a stepmother to her husband Doug Emhoff’s two children, told Cooper, adding, “And I consider it to be a real blessing.”
Harris discussed her relationship with her stepchildren, Cole and Ella Emhoff, who are her husband’s biological children from his first marriage.
“They are my children. And I love those kids to death, and family comes in many forms,” Harris said.
