NBC News reported that when asked about his view of Vice President Kamala Harris, former California Gov. Jerry Brown did not offer any take on the fellow Californian. “I do not have a thought on that topic,” he reportedly said.
NBC News had also asked whether President Joe Biden represents the Democratic Party’s best chance to defeat Trump. “I would say he’s the man of the hour. He’s there,” Brown responded, according to the outlet. “I don’t have any great political strategy here of the Democrats,” he noted. “It’s very challenging.”
Brown served as the Golden State’s governor from early 1975 through early 1983, and then decades later from early 2011 through early 2019. Harris served as a U.S. senator from California from early 2017 until early 2021. And Brown had served as California state attorney general just before Harris stepped into the role.
Polls show Trump and Biden with massive leads in their respective parties’ presidential primaries, so Biden and Harris will likely be the Democratic Party’s choice for the 2024 presidential ticket, and Trump will likely end up heading the GOP ticket next year.
“Trump’s attempted sabotage of the election has no precedent,” Brown said, referring to the 2020 election, according to NBC News. “It’s extremely dangerous. But we know historically that democracy usually devolves to the dictators, to the mob. That’s the historic classical view. You go from democracy to the mob to dictators to the oligarchy. There are these cycles that we go through.”
