Vice President Kamala Harris admitted to occasionally struggling with on-the-spot decision-making during a CNN town hall this week. The event, which featured questions from the public, comes amid polling showing voters shifting their support toward former President Donald Trump.

When asked by Joe Donahue, a store worker, about her weaknesses and how she plans to address them, Harris candidly responded, “I may not be quick to have the answer on a specific policy issue sometimes because I like to research it first.”

Describing herself as “kind of a nerd,” Harris explained that she prefers to take time to thoroughly study issues before making decisions. “Some might call that a weakness, especially if you’re in an interview or being asked a certain question, and you’re expected to have the right answer right away. But that’s how I work,” she said.

Harris also acknowledged that she occasionally relies heavily on her team for input, which she sees as both a strength and a potential vulnerability. “I think that I perhaps, a weakness some would say, that I actually think is a strength, is that I really do value having a team of very smart people around me who bring different perspectives to my decision-making process,” she noted. “My team will tell you I am constantly saying, ‘Let’s kick the tires on that.’”

Her comments reflect a leadership style that prioritizes deliberation and collaboration, though they may resonate differently with voters seeking a more decisive approach from national leaders, particularly in an increasingly polarized political landscape.
