  Vice President Kamala Harris cracked open a can of Miller High Life on Tuesday, and took one sip, during an appearance on CBS’ “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert.”

  “When you first became the nominee and named Tim Walz as your vice president nominee people were calling it the vibe election. The vibes were all good,” late-night host Stephen Colbert told Harris, referring to the enthusiasm for the new Democratic nominee after President Biden dropped out of the race.

  “But elections, I think, are won on vibes,” Colbert continued, in a clip released his show. “Because one of the old saws is I – they just want somebody they can have a beer with.”

  “So would you like to have a beer with me? So I can tell people what that’s like?” the comedian asked.

  Harris, 59, nodded in the affirmative before Colbert whipped out a couple cans of the vice president’s beer of choice.

  “We asked ahead of time, because I can’t just be giving a drink to the vice president of the United States without asking,” the “Late Show” host admitted.

  “You asked for Miller High Life. I’m just curious – “ Colbert wondered.

  “Okay, the last time I had beer was at a baseball game with Doug,” the vice president said, referring to her husband, second gentleman Doug Emhoff.

  Harris and Colbert both took a sip after exchanging “cheers.”

  “The champagne of beers!” Harris exclaimed – the brand’s slogan – before breaking out in her trademark laugh.

  Colbert, who took part in a lavish NYC fundraiser for President Biden earlier this year, spent his monologue fact-checking claims made by former President Donald Trump and praising Harris.

  In an apparent dig at Trump, Harris slammed the “crude” spread of “misinformation” and attempts to “manipulate” voters in the wake of Hurricane Helene.

  “Have you no empathy, man … for the suffering of other people?” Harris said, without naming the former president.

  “Have you no sense of purpose, if you purport to be a leader, to understand that being a leader means lifting people up in a time of need and not manipulating them,” she added.

  When asked by Colbert what the “major changes” would be between a Harris presidency and Biden’s, as well as “what would stay the same,” the vice president deployed one of her canned lines.

  “Well, I mean, I’m obviously not Joe Biden, and so that would be one change,” she responded, later adding, “I’m not Donald Trump.”

  Colbert, 60, also asked the VP if she’s given her running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, any description of what being the No. 2 in the White House would entail.

  “I did – I have pointed out through my three and a half years of being vice president that it’s ‘vice’ president,” Harris said.

  The Democratic nominee pushed for an immediate “ceasefire and hostage deal” when Colbert lamented that a year after the Oct. 7 attack on Israel, some Americans appear to have “no hope for any sort of peaceful resolution” to the conflict in the region.

  The funny man followed up by noting, “We’ve been told that a ceasefire deal was very close several times.”

  “What does that mean?” he probed.

  “Close means that a lot of the details have been worked out, but details remained,” Harris responded, admitting that any “progress” achieved through talks with the Hamas terror group and Israel is “meaningless unless a deal is actually reached.”

  哈里斯出现在科尔伯特节目的前一天,哥伦比亚广播公司的“60分钟”节目播出了对副总统的独家采访,在采访中,她回避了有关边境危机的问题,无法说出她将如何为她的经济提案买单,并试图解释为什么自2020年竞选白宫以来,她在几个问题上的态度发生了转变。

  这是哈里斯作为民主党总统候选人首次在晚间脱口秀节目中露面。

  总的来说,这是哈里斯第七次接受科尔伯特的采访,也是她自2023年3月以来的第一次。
