I can see a convention battle happening. Especially if Harris is embarrassing the party honchos with word salad gibberish.
Which is why trump will not commit to debating her, he will debate but not her until after the democrats finally pick a nominee, otherwise they will keep switching NPC politicians until they find one who can fool the people.
If Trump had held off with Biden, he would still be the expected nominee at the convention.
I feel they won’t let Kamala speak off script anymore. After two terms of Obama and then Biden, I don’t count anyone out. The media dolts will do everything they can to see Kamala will be presented favorably. After all, the media believes they have a hand in making history. Kamala will get the usual 40% or whatever Dem vote. I just hope there are enough sane people left who can see though the difference.
Here is an alternative history scenario
First I believe the debate was a set up, when have you ever seen a debate before both candidates were nominated?
Second I believe the set up was if xiden did well enough t they would stay with him and replace after election, but if he did badly, like he did, they would still have time to replace him
So my alternative universe scenario is what would be happening if Trump had not agreed to a debate till after both conventions?
I agree with the premise, but to a degree.
I think they are floating Kamala.
She was the path of least resistence.
She is VP and they can’t be seen as passing over the VP (who is also a woman and minority, just in case you didn’t know. heh).
If she doesn’t get a substantial lift in the (INTERNAL) polling in a few weeks, they will have plan B ready to go.
If it weren’t so deadly serious, it would be fun to watch “Que mala” Harris slice and dice up the English language.
But that may be just the thing that impels The Powers That Be to become even more determined she should be not only nominated. but all stops pulled out to assure the ballot count, and the electoral college, go in her favor.
Then look. We have Obama dealing with a FOURTH term.
If Trump had not agreed to the debate, there would have been another way to oust Biden.
I agree with you. They’re gonna have her on a leash until her official confirmed nomination is locked down. They will also likely script and bullet-point everything she does campaign-wise all the way through the election. IOW, no free-thought experiments discussions, no word salad musings or CACKLING.
They’ll have her speaking in Obama mode. Three and four word sentences with a pause and switch to the other teleprompter, then on to the next bullet-point sentence of the prepared narrative.
The debate is what sealed Biden’s fate. He did it to himself. Trump did not cause the debacle nor did he cause the withdrawal of Biden. That was in the cards as played by the puppet masters.
There still seem to be plenty of people on all sides who believe in the political “process” that gave us 2020. Many make their living off of it.
I would suggest thinking outside the box.
Trump has already debated the Democrat’s presidential nominee - and won. Anything more is a do-over for the Rats. Do not think that they will not use ALL of the powers of the Presidency to force a victory - far more than Trump was willing or able to use in 2020.
My theory is that the Democrats insisted on holding the first debate so early in the year because they knew Biden's cognitive abilities were beginning to deteriorate at an even more rapid pace. Their hope was that Biden had enough left to turn in at least a mediocre debate without any major flubs. The Dems and their flunkies in the media would then praise Biden for a "string performance", claim he was the clear winner, and no further debates would be necessary. They could then keep him under wraps until election day. Instead, it blew up in their faces.
Calamity Harris will definitely stay “on script”, the Dim’s convention will be a battle, I agree with blitz128, AND that Plan B is “Big Mike”.
“Big Mike” doesn’t “present” very well today, but all she has to do is WIN, and Obama’s FOURTH administration will sink this country.
Kamela can’t tell a gum tree from a palm tree
Everybody knows that Kookaburra sits in an old gum treeee
Yep. Path of least resistance.
Harris was picked because Democrats understand that normal Americans like things orderly, regular, and by the book. Also, when they ripped off the bandaid by removing Biden, they wanted it done as fast as possible, as soon forgettable. His veep is the only logical substitute.
They can’t do it twice. Beyond her there’s no logical substitute, there’s only chaos at the convention, plus a threat to their hold on the campaign funds. That won’t do.
With Harris they might be able to market her enough to make the steal credible — a close loss to Trump, and a steal of a couple of battleground states. That’s their best shot.
With anyone else, they’d lose all credibility and Trump would be looking at 400EV, meaning they’d have to shoot him again and that’s kinda problematic too.
BTTT

Oh I am sure, but the timeline would have been even shorter. Just look how all the media and deep state up to the debate were still pushing the “engaged, sharp as a tack…” narrative
