Mike Pence reacts to Kamala Harris as Biden’s running mate: 'It’s on'

Vice President Mike Pence appeared on Hannity Wednesday night where he reacted with enthusiasm to the announcement that Senator Kamala Harris would be Joe Biden’s running mate. Despite Harris having shown herself to be a fierce debater, Pence said he “can’t wait” to see her on stage at the Vice Presidential debate in October. Pence also stuck to the strategy laid out in a statement released by the Trump campaign shortly after Harris was announced as Biden’s pick for VP, which is to paint her as a radical leftist, despite her record showing otherwise.

MIKE PENCE: I just have to tell you, I like the match up. It's on, Sean. I can't wait to get back out there.

- Vice President Mike Pence appeared on Hannity Wednesday night where he reacted to the news that Joe Biden had chosen Senator Kamala Harris as his running mate just one day earlier. Harris and Pence will square off in a vice presidential debate in Utah in October, and Pence says he's looking forward to it.

MIKE PENCE: I think she is a skilled debater, but I can't wait to get to Salt Lake City and beyond the stage with her to compare Joe Biden's nearly 50 years in public life, the agenda of the radical left, the agenda that she's embraced throughout her political career.

- Pence also continually tried to paint Harris as a radical, even though radicals, and even Fox News anchor Chris Wallace, say otherwise.

MIKE PENCE: Joe Biden's decision to add Kamala Harris to the ticket confirms everything President Trump and I have been saying, and that is that Joe Biden and the Democratic party have been overtaken by the radical left.
