What is your impression of the job Kamala Harris is doing as VP?
It's still early and so I'm not really anxious about it, but so far I was hoping for her to stand out a little bit more positively than she has. Maybe it's the nature of some of the "dirty work" tasks that she's been asked to do. Maybe my perceptions are off, though, and most people think highly of what she has done so far.

CNN ran a story critical of Kamala. CNN is to democrats what FOX news is to republicans. There must be trouble in paradise.

It is hard to tell how she or Biden are doing because Trump is still getting all the attention.

The Other Side really wanted to pin any and everything on her once the election was over (really over), so I'm not surprised she is being a bit low-key, but that is only on the scale of what many expected her to do. What has been the activity of the previous VPs at the six month mark? I'm not so sure she has been any less active than those priors.

To me VP is just one big PR event - so far, she's doing a little less than expected, but I'm not expecting much.

I wasn't thrilled with her as the pick to start with, I'm less enthralled now. I do not see her as the nominee in 2024 or 2028 (and if she is, then the Republicans take the White house back).

Haven't seen much of her since she took office.
Maybe she's been too focused on her job to go on TV and put on a show for us.

We’re really not supposed to notice what the VP does. Historically they have pretty much existed in the background. I think the only reason she has a spotlight is that biden is so old. one side wants to up her chances of succeeding biden while the other wants to torpedo her chances now.

She's doing a brilliant job. She's being undermined by the media and is the number one target of the far left. Other than Obama, no politician has been more criticized.

Agree that she's being unfairly treated by the media and political chatterers but it was 100% expected for the first woman of color in that role.
I've never seen any VP take on so much responsibility for major policy initiatives this early in the first term. On top of everything else she came down here to red Trumpland, Upstate SC, to promote vaccines. I think she is awesome. I love how she ignores her detractors and just does the work.
