The former president has always considered himself to be the ultimate disrupter. But this time, the disruption is on the other side.

Through the weekend, there were an awful lot of questions that were going back and forth from people in the president’s tightest circle, and one of the questions that kept being asked was whether Joe Biden was going to endorse Kamala Harris or not. And the question didn’t revolve around whether he wanted to or not, but whether people in her camp thought it would be better for her to fight for it, win it on her own, and not be seen as somebody who was tapped by President Biden and so, in her own way, have a fresh start going into the campaign.
So the timing seems to be about as good as it could have been to end what has just been one of the craziest two or three weeks in American politics in quite some time.
You're viewing a single thread.
I still think it was a bad idea that Joe dropped out this late into the cycle, but at least Kamilla will be a competant incumbant. I didn't think they were going to put kamilla in his place and I thought we were fucked. Glad I was wrong but I hope that she will be enough. She's polling slightly better than Joe was against Trump.
Kamilla
*Kamala
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Whoopsy
Hopefully it leaves the Republicans without enough time to develop and implement a new strategy. It wouldn't surprise me if they have some contingency plan already, but it might be too late for them to actually use it.
Doesn't really sound like it based on Trump whining about the switcharoo. Pretty sure their only plan was "attack Biden endlessly" with no back up.
If he had dropped out earlier, the Republicans would have used the entire RNC spreading talking points and lies trying to discredit her.
