‘Go F*** Yourself’: Jill Biden Ripped Kamala After She Attacked Joe Biden in 2019, Report Says

After the June 2019 Democratic presidential candidate debate, when then-senator Kamala Harris attacked Joe Biden over his position on desegregation, insinuating that he was a racist, Biden’s wife Jill, speaking to close supporters. reportedly furiously attacked Harris, snapping, “With what he cares about, what he fights for, what he’s committed to, you get up there and call him a racist without basis? Go f*** yourself.”

The story of Jill Biden’s irate response to Harris’ claims came from Edward-Isaac Dovere, a staff writer for the Atlantic, as reported by Politico.

In the 2019 debate, Harris was allegedly told by members of her team she should attack Biden hard in order to rise in the polls. She heeded their advice by targeting Biden with this:

As the only black person on this stage, I would like to speak on the issue of race. … So on the issue of race, I couldn’t agree more that this is an issue that is still not being talked about truthfully and honestly. I — there is not a black man I know, be he a relative, a friend or a coworker, who has not been the subject of some form of profiling or discrimination.

Growing up, my sister and I had to deal with the neighbor who told us her parents couldn’t play with us because she — because we were black. And I will say also that — that, in this campaign, we have also heard — and I’m going to now direct this at Vice President Biden, I do not believe you are a racist, and I agree with you when you commit yourself to the importance of finding common ground.

But I also believe, and it’s personal — and I was actually very — it was hurtful to hear you talk about the reputations of two United States senators who built their reputations and career on the segregation of race in this country. And it was not only that, but you also worked with them to oppose busing.

And, you know, there was a little girl in California who was part of the second class to integrate her public schools, and she was bused to school every day. And that little girl was me.

Biden responded:

It’s a mischaracterization of my position across the board. I did not praise racists. That is not true, number one. Number two, if we want to have this campaign litigated on who supports civil rights and whether I did or not, I’m happy to do that. I was a public defender. I didn’t become a prosecutor. I came out and I left a good law firm to become a public defender, when, in fact, my city was in flames because of the assassination of Dr. King, number one.

Number two, as the vice president of the United States, I worked with a man who, in fact, we worked very hard to see to it we dealt with these issues in a major, major way. The fact is that, in terms of busing, the busing, I never — you would have been able to go to school the same exact way because it was a local decision made by your city council. That’s fine. That’s one of the things I argued for, that we should not be — we should be breaking down these lines. But so the bottom line here is, look, everything I have done in my career, I ran because of civil rights, I continue to think we have to make fundamental changes in civil rights, and those civil rights, by the way, include not just only African-Americans, but the LGBT community.

Biden reportedly turned to candidate Pete Buttigieg during the commercial break, saying, “Well, that was some f***ing bull****.”
