POLITICO Live spoke with White House press secretary Jen Psaki, and they couldn’t have lobbed a bigger, slower softball at her than this question about VP Kamala Harris’ approval numbers:
Do you think Kamala Harris is receiving more criticism because she’s the first woman & woman of color to serve as vice president? White House Press Secretary @jrpsaki answers with a resounding "yes" and adds the criticism has been "harsher" because of Harris' identity.#RuleWithUs https://t.co/vbRt9pbGEB

It’s the predictable WH/media spin job, but reality begs to differ.
Biden had promised a “woman of color” would be his running mate, and that’s one promise he delivered on.
The media didn’t report it that way back then. Weird, right?..
