Inside Joe Biden’s White House

December 20, 2022 at 8:24 pm ET By Taegan Goddard Leave a Comment

In the first months of his presidency, Joe Biden vented his frustration about Vice President Kamala Harris, telling a friend that she was “a work in progress,” Politico reports.

“The new details of the tensions between the vice president and the president are among the many revelations in the book due out on Jan. 17 that traces the highs and lows of Biden’s first two years.”

Said author Chris Whipple: “I think Biden’s presidency is the most consequential of my lifetime. His legislative record is comparable to LBJ’s and he’s been underestimated every step of the way. But it’s also been a tale of two presidencies –- the first year and the second year.”
