Suuuuure Looks Like Harris' Headline Surrogates Backfired

Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump has been able to spin Vice President Kamala Harris' top Democratic surrogates' recent campaign stops as an endorsement for him as their statements have somewhat backfired.

Former Democratic presidents Bill Clinton, Barack Obama and current President Joe Biden have been surrogates for Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris and Trump has used some of their recent remarks to benefit himself, whether it be a failed political move or a statement.

This could be a correlation vs causation dispute. Did these surrogates backfire, or did they just not do much to support a failing candidate? You can make an argument for causation, but it's probably more that Kamala is fumbling too badly to be helped by surrogates at all. Voters don't have any confidence in her, so Obama's scolding probably doesn't hurt or help much.
