Dr. Ben Carson stated during an appearance on Breitbart News Saturday that it is “quite clear” Vice President Kamala Harris and her running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz (D), are attempting to deceive the American public in their bid for the presidency.

Carson suggested that despite the confident front they present, Harris’s campaign and the Democratic Party are aware that they are in a difficult position.

“Obviously, the campaign for Kamala and the Democrat party know that they’re in bad shape, because there was a reason that Kamala got so little support when she was running for president during the primary process. The reason that she dropped out is because people found out who she was. So the lesson that they’ve learned is — let’s not let people know who you are,” Carson said

The renowned surgeon and former GOP presidential candidate pointed out that Harris has not held a press conference or participated in an interview since President Joe Biden withdrew from the race and endorsed her as his successor.

“It’s been 20 days and counting — no interview, no press conference. She wants to stay hidden as much as she possibly can, because, as Trump said last night, she’s not really capable of doing an interview without having all the aides, the  teleprompter … and people will find out very, very quickly what’s going on. So they’re going to keep trying to push and push, extend things,” he said, explaining that the Trump campaign must “bring out the points about Kamala and about Walz, about what they believe, what they think, what they’ve said.”

Host Matthew Boyle asked Carson if he believes that the Kamala Harris and Tim Walz campaign is attempting to deceive the American public and essentially lie their way into the presidency.

“It’s quite, quite clear that that’s what they’re trying to do. That’s what they’ve done in the past,” Carson said. “The very fact that they tried to hide from the American people the condition of Biden tells you all you need to know. Anybody who would do that is not someone who can be trusted. And would you trust them with the future of the country, with the future of your children and grandchildren, all the people coming after, after they’ve already demonstrated that lying is second nature to them?. I don’t think so.”
