CNN host Scott Jennings believes President Joe Biden is attempting to sabotage Democratic nominee Kamala Harris' campaign after calling her 'a major player' .

The Kentucky-born political strategist took to X to share the wild theory hours after Biden's surprise appearance in the press briefing room on Friday. 

Eagle-eyed viewers noticed that the President was very insistent about Harris being a full participant in everything their cabinet were doing.

'I'm in constant contact with her. She's aware. We're singing from the same song sheet. She helped pass all of the laws that are being employed now, she was a major player in everything we've done,' Biden told a journalist. 

Soon after, Jennings posted a clip of his answer and theorized that the 81-year-old was damaging her chances by connecting Harris to all of his decisions - the good and the bad.

'I'm in constant contact with her. She's aware. We're singing from the same song sheet. She helped pass all of the laws that are being employed now, she was a major player in everything we've done,' Biden told a journalist during Friday's briefing

'He is literally trying to destroy her campaign and it’s just incredible,' the GOP party member wrote. 

This comes hours after CNN accused Biden of trying to 'steal the limelight' from his VP through his surprise appearance moments before she took the stage to give remarks. 

It was the first time the president has shown up in the briefing room. CNN took note of the dueling appearances as it happened.

'We were actually about to go live to Vice President Kamala Harris who's speaking right now in Detroit, Michigan,' anchor Boris Sanchez said on air. 

'And apparently she's talking about this port strike ending, she's trying to appeal to union workers, and yet you have the President of the United States come out, clearly overshadowing her, answering significant questions,' he continued.

Sanchez questioned if it was a 'communications mistake,' adding: 'Is the left hand not talking to the right hand in this situation?'

Political strategist Frank Luntz who was a guest on CNN responded that had the two sides been coordinating 'this would not have happened.'

Harris was in Redford Township, Michigan on Friday afternoon where she spoke of the importance of organized labor and offered praise for first responders while speaking to a room of firefighters and union members.

Her appearance standing next to a firetruck in the Redford Township Fire Department North Station comes as the firefighters union declined to endorse Harris or Trump in the 2024.

CNN had previously accused Biden of trying to 'steal the limelight' from his VP through his surprise appearance moments before she took the stage to give remarks

Harris praised firefighters on Friday for the work they do. She also celebrated the port union reaching an agreement to end its strike during her remarks

The non-endorsement is seen as a blow to the vice president after the International Association of Fire Fighters (IAFF), represents over 350,000 firefighters, emergency responders and other medical workers  was the first union to endorse President Biden in 2020.

‘Yours is a profession that is more than a profession, it really is about a calling,’ Harris told the crowd after receiving a warm welcome. She noted that her brother-in-law is a retired firefighter in California.

‘I know what you guys do, and I know your character,’ Harris said. ‘I know your families. I know what it means for the whole community for you all to take on the lives that you have decided to live, and I am so thankful to you.’

She praised them for working ‘long shifts with unpredictable hours’ under ‘some of the most dangerous conditions.’

Harris said she’s grateful for the union that supports them and their rights to 'all they deserve in terms of wages and benefits.'

She was introduced by the president of the Michigan Professional Firefighters Union.

The IAFF is the latest major union to withhold an endorsement in the 2024 presidential race. Last month, the Teamsters union declined to endorse a presidential candidate, though multiple local chapters threw their support behind the Democratic nominee.
