MSNBC’s Stephanie Ruhle Asks Kamala Harris, ‘Can We Trust You?’

MSNBC host Stephanie Ruhle asked Vice President Kamala Harris whether women in America could trust her during an interview on Wednesday.

After Ruhle brought up Trump’s recent message to women, during which he vowed to be their “protector” and to prevent them from becoming “abandoned, lonely, or scared,” Harris said:

Donald Trump is also the person who said women should be punished for exercising a decision that they rightly should be able to make about their own body and their future. So I think we would all agree that as a result of that perspective that he has about women, he also then chose three members of the United States Supreme Court who did as he intended, undid the protections of Roe v. Wade, and now in state after state you see laws being passed that do punish women.

She continued, “I mean, most recently, a heartbreaking story resulted in a young woman dying. A mother of a six-year-old. Heart-wrenching stories, and that’s for the listener, much less their family. So look, I think the thing about Donald Trump is that, you know, I don’t think the women of America need him to say he’s going to protect them. The women of America need him to trust them.”

“Can we trust you?” asked Ruhle.

Harris replied, “Yes. Yes. I’m not perfect, but I will tell you I’m always gonna put the needs of the people first.”

“Madame Vice President, thank you for your time,” Ruhle concluded.
