• Kamala Harris said that she receives more media scrutiny than any of her previous predecessors.
• The vice president told Politico that "it is what it is" and she would not complain about the treatment.
• Harris has struggled in public opinion polls, but her defenders said the election could change that.

Vice President Kamala Harris said that she faces more media scrutiny than any of her previous predecessors but she isn't going to complain it's unfair.

"I think that that is the case. … It's what it is," Harris told Politico in an interview published Monday morning. "I'm not going to sit here and say, 'Oh, you know, it's not fair,' because, you know, I am not new to these things."
