GILLIAN TURNER (CO-HOST): I have a theory about why the vice president chose Governor Walz as her running mate. I could very easily be wrong, this is my own personal take. But if you think about it, I think it was more about her opportunity to strike out on her own than it was about any electoral strategy. If you are Kamala Harris, you are handed Biden's record to defend. You are handed your senior staff at the White House. You are handed your campaign platform. You are handed your campaign staff. All the way up to the top. With three months to go, she has had very little say in anything that's going on so far in terms of her own presidential prospect --
GREG GUTFELD (CO-HOST): She's not saying anything.
TURNER: She wanted to go with Walz. I think it was an emotional, you know, a sort of heart pick rather than a head pick.
