WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump on Tuesday said he was surprised Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden chose Senator Kamala Harris as his running mate because she had been disrespectful to the former vice president during the debates.

Trump said Harris had been "very, very nasty" to Biden during the primaries. "One of the reasons that it surprised me, she was probably nastier than even Pocahontas to Joe Biden. She was very disrespectful to Joe Biden and it's hard to pick somebody that that's disrespectful," he told reporters.

It could be a twofer: KH could make chunky salsa out of MP in the debate, scrambling the Trump / Tea Party succession. She could have fried Trump with eggs and hash browns if the party'd given her the chance.
Obviously a food hang-up here...jus' askin' now, but do the terms "keto", "oprah" and "adkins" have any special relevance to you? Your blood sugar might be a bit high...
