At a White House news conference, Trump described Harris as 'his number one draft pick.'

U.S President Trump sarcastically said that California Senator Kamala Harris was his 'draft pick' to be Joe Biden's running mate.

There had been rumors about Kamala Harris being picked as Joe Biden's Vice Presidential candidate. These rumors became true when Mr. Biden officially announced Ms. Harris as his running mate. The United States is scheduled to vote in a presidential election on November 3, 2020, where Joe Biden (Democrat) and the current President Donald Trump (Republican) are set to face each other. President Trump, while speaking to reporters at the White House, stated that Ms. Harris was his 'draft pick' as she had an abysmal run during the Democratic Primaries when she ran for the presidential candidature. Trump also pointed out that she was a supporter of Jews as her husband was a Jew and that Harris was against fracking, which would not help their bid for the White House, especially in States like Pennsylvania and Ohio.
