I'll break Kamala's silence for her:

The real reason she refuses to talk to the press:

If someone from the press were to ask her "How would you fix the border if you were president?"

No matter what her answer is, the question that would remain would be "Why don't you fix it now, since you still have almost 5 months left as Vice President?"

The same goes for any question; if she refuses to fix something now, why would anyone believe that she'd fix it later?

The smartest thing she can do at this point is what she's doing; hiding from the press.

"I'll work with congress and...." Yea sure, she can't work with congress now, so she won't be able to work with them later either.

Valid point; she's in the WH now so she can work on effecting change but isn't a VP pretty toothless though, politically? Though given that their VP is the current nominated candidate, I'm sure Biden will rubber stamp whatever she runs past his desk. But I was always under the assumption that VPs don't really get much done, they're more cheerleaders for POTUS' initiatives.

I'm under that impression too, but if she can't get the man who personally selected her for her job to help solve a major problem, then IMO that makes the who team (Democrats in this case) look incompetent.

They're always backing one another up, and Joe is a total team player. It would make no sense for them to be unable to accomplish a reasonable goal immediately.

They break tie-breakers in the Senate. If they want to forward their
political career, they can make it look like they are working with the President to get things done.

Over the years, some VPs have stayed in the shadows while others have not.
Al Gore seemed to keep himself in the spotlight. So did VP Joe Biden. Both gave the impression that they were working with the President to get things done, and both wanted the public to know it. IIRC, sometimes Gore seemed
to have his own initiatives that he (or he and his wife) were "working on"
for America, with Clinton's blessings of course.

Harris was actually very publicly given a task by President Joe Biden
regarding the US Boarder situation. Where Gore or VP Biden would have used that opportunity to keep themselves in the spotlight and make it look like
they were working on it, Harris didn't really put forth any effort and
often seemed to disown the task. Most believe she never even completed the task.

Not a good look.
