The backlash from base voters who very explicitly demanded a Black woman as VP (and on the Court) as our “seat at the table” in exchange for our electoral organizing…whew, you are not prepared.
But almost all of the white alternatives are, and it’s why they keep saying no.
by choosing anyone other than harris to replace biden should he decide to step aside, the party would be revealing they very cynically chose her as veep for optics without believing she could actually be president.
I don’t know why they think pissing off the door-knockers and canvassing power of the party will end well, but these people don’t understand what they refuse to see
I am losing my mind
"stick with Biden or go with Harris" is the open question, anything else is absolute guaranteed disaster
what do any of these people think they're doing
Yeah, neither those who think Biden should stay in the race nor those who think he should bow out in favor of Harris are delusional
THESE people on the other hand...
It's stunning how much of America's processes are just "tradition" - nothing really written down. If a president steps down, isn't the vice-president supposed to step up? Isn't that what the position IS? Why can't Harris be the nominee?
It is all written down! It’s especially written down in the Democratic Party, which had several unprecedented nightmare scenarios all coalesce together in 1968, after which the modern primary was created. All of these scenarios are nonsense and vibes, not legal maneuvers.
That is a really funny article. A lawyer and a venture capitalist are asking rich people for money under the premise they’ll pick the next president, and according to the grifters I mean planners there has been universal support from everyone they’ve talked to with no confirmation or way to verify
