Cruz warns against underestimating Harris: 'This is not a layup'

Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) warned Republicans against underestimating Vice President Harris after President Biden withdrew from the race on Sunday and endorsed his vice president for the White House.

"Republicans, I worry, vastly underestimate Kamala Harris. They don't think very highly of her. They don't think she's terribly bright. When you or I bring up Kamala Harris' name in Republican circles, people laugh. It's immediately a punchline," Cruz said on his podcast, “The Verdict,” in an episode aired Monday.
