Joe Biden has endorsed Kamala Harris for president. This does NOT mean that Kamala Harris is the Democratic nominee. The official nominee will be declared at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago on August 19.
Democrats should be livid that their party never offered them an alternative to Biden. They refused to permit any candidate to challenge Biden and ignored anyone who came forward. Robert F. Kennedy Jr. changed party affiliations for numerous reasons, but one major reason was that he simply was ignored in favor of the establishment’s selected candidate.
Of course, Joe Biden had to appoint Kamala Harris. It would have gone against the entire Biden-Harris campaign to endorse someone other than Biden’s original choice for second-in-line. The DEI initiatives strongly backed by the Biden Administration would crumble as one of Kamala’s leading selling points is that she is the first female minority to seek the highest office. Countless articles are already calling anyone who disagrees with a Kamala presidency racist and sexist. Harris managed to release merchandise for her presidential aspirations hours after Joe Biden retreated from the race.
The entire establishment is playing along for now. They know Kamala Harris is not their candidate of choice but they must promote her until the time is right to shock their voter base once again.
We are honored to join the President in endorsing Vice President Harris and will do whatever we can do to support her,” the Clintons said in a joint statement. “We join millions of Americans in thanking President Biden for all he has accomplished, standing up for America time and again, with his North Star always being what’s best for the country,” they said on social media. The Clintons then ended their message by saying “the threat posed by a second Trump term,” should be the primary focus of all Democrats.
Polls conducted weeks ago show that Democrats prefer Hillary to Kamala. Fourteen million people already selected Joe Biden in the primaries. Now, the Democrats are looking at the polls and deciding to swap him out. The dialogue of Biden being an unfit candidate suddenly hit the media at the same time, followed by an impromptu debate to show the world that Joe Biden is mentally unfit. Biden didn’t suddenly fall ill. The Democrats deliberately orchestrated everything to ignore the real electoral process – they had already known Biden was unfit.
“We MUST defeat Trump to save the world!” has become the motto of the DNC. They have absolutely nothing to show for the past four years. Their entire party relies on Trump derangement syndrome where people are openly willing to sacrifice their nation to some of the most detrimental policies ever imposed simply to prevent a man they don’t personally like from becoming president.
New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is too polarizing to stand a chance as the nominee, but she is doing her part in being a mockingbird for the establishment. “Kamala Harris will be the next President of the United States. I pledge my full support to ensure her victory in November. Now more than ever, it is crucial that our party and country swiftly unite to defeat Donald Trump and the threat to American democracy,” she wrote on X. “Let’s get to work.”
Elizabeth “Pocahontas” Warren agrees with her fellow “progressive.” “[Harris] is a proven fighter who has been a national leader in safeguarding consumers and protecting access to abortion,” she wrote. “As a former prosecutor, she can press a forceful case against allowing Donald Trump to regain the White House.”
North Carolina’s Governor Roy Cooper said that Harris “has what it takes to defeat Donald Trump and lead our country thoughtfully and with integrity.” Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg parroted the same idea: “Kamala Harris is now the right person to take up the torch, defeat Donald Trump, and succeed Joe Biden as President.”
Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker, once thought to be a potential candidate, fully supports Kamala Harris. Pritzker, like ALL others, maintains that defeating Donald Trump is the priority. Therefore, the Democrats are going to select the candidate they feel is most likely to win against the Trump-Vance ticket. “Vice President Harris has proven, at every point in her career, that she possesses the skills, strength, and character to lead this country and the vision to better the lives of all Americans,” Pritzker stated on social media. “She represents our Party’s best chance to defeat Donald Trump in November, and I will work my heart out to help her do that.”
Gavin Newsom of California, also thought to be a potential contender but perhaps too polarizing, warned his supporters that democracy is at stake. “With our democracy at stake and our future on the line, no one is better to prosecute the case against Donald Trump’s dark vision and guide our country in a healthier direction than America’s Vice President, @KamalaHarris.” The man has been unable to lead one state, let alone a nation.
The younger Soros proposed to Clinton’s former aide days before Trump’s assassination attempt, coincidentally. Naturally this megadonor would put the money from the Open Societies Foundation into a Clinton campaign despite his organization openly supporting Harris for the time being.)
Everyone on the left is currently agreeing with the narrative that Kamala Harris would make a fine president. They technically voted for her to be the second-in-command and must uphold this original front. However, absolutely every single politician and commentator has stressed the importance of beating Donald Trump this November. That is the entire platform for the Democrats, and that will be the reasoning behind switching out Kamala for a candidate who the people believe can beat demonized Donald Trump.
Countless articles have been subliminally supporting a Hillary presidency. The articles began when Roe v Wade was overturned by the Supreme Court and handed to the states, despite the majority of voters saying abortion is not a priority. Clinton released merchandise to fund her Super PAC after Trump was indicted. Numerous polls were put forward BEFORE Biden dropped out of the race to gauge how receptive the public would be to a Hillary campaign. The media is now churning out articles detailing a 2016 rematch between Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump. She already has the means to raise funds and the full backing of the establishment.
Kamala lost miserably when she ran for the presidency in 2020. Harris did not even reach the Iowa caucus because she received so little support from the public. She has not done a single noteworthy action as vice president, and people do not like her smugness or signature cackle. People have repeatedly said that Hillary Clinton is also not a personable figure, but they seem to respect her over Kamala Harris. It is too late to present the public with a new face. I firmly believe that the Democrats will begin to release information stating that Kamala Harris has a poor chance of defeating Donald Trump in the weeks leading up to August 19 to open the door for Hillary Rodham Clinton.
Given that hooligans and rioters will be on center stage at the Democrats’ convention, and that the Democrats don’t want to be associated with lawlessness even though they have supported it (i.e. bail funds for BLM/Antifa a-holes) all along, I think the convention will be virtual.
before she opened her mouth and let the Word-salad fly ? LOL
Kams will never be the nominee. Unless she somehow become the President in the next couple of weeks.
For this reason, they are going to hide the fact that pedojoe is pining for the fjords until the convention.
As the sitting president, Kamelho would be the presumptive nominee. Obama's Palace Coup continues unabated unless 'ho invokes the 25th.
Only if Harris is as far behind in the polls as Biden was. It still too early to tell if that is going to be the case.
That’s magical thinking that is pure delusion, she will be their candidate no matter what now.
They pushed all their chips in and it will be 24/7 full court press to attack Trump for being the old geezer now, bet on it.
Before the debates it was “magical thinking” that Biden would not be the nominee. He had all the delegates. Follow the math!
Do you believe in magic?
Lol.
We’ll find out in a week, they aren’t waiting a month for no convention.
Aug 7 is the coronation, bet on it
They’re going to go with Harris unless the Polls in August are abysmal. She at least has to ensure that the race is close enough for Dems to reclaim the house.
That’s right. This will be an open convention. The superdelegates will pick someone else.
They have been discussing this way back and joe is so confused that he even refered to her as president and demoted President Trump to vp???
Yet bidem is still
Sitting at the oval desk?????
The D’s are using 2024 to rid themselves of their Kamala problem. They can’t ignore a black female VP because . . . diversity.
But she’s clueless and embarrassing and even they know it.
Predicting the Democrats next move is a perilous business this year.
Follow the magic!
:-)
Harris has the support of a majority of the delegates, she is the presumptive nominee unless she is found in bed with both a live girl and a dead boy...
She could do something worse than that—be ten points behind in the polls.
To a Democrat the thought of losing a presidential election to President Trump is horrific.
Exactamente.
The Dems are in a trap. They cannot run someone more qualified, with more gravitas, without alienating their AA base (which is critical to their success).
Of course, if she wins, the entire country is in a trap. As much as I think that would be a disaster, the electorate has been so dumbed down and the vote so corrupted, it is quite possible she will “win”.
No way. Hillary would be wiped out. The talk of Big Mike being a shoe in us silly.
It’s too late. Only 104 days left.
The only person who can push Harris aside is Michelle. For anyone else, it’s politically impossible. Black women in the party would go absolutely apeshit if they did.
I don’t see any major names agreeing to be her VP unless it’s someone already out of office. I think they take one look at her polling numbers and decide that it’s a sinking ship and (1) they don’t want to be on it, and (2) better to let her go down with it and get the black woman candidate out of the way. Then they can make their own serious runs for President in ‘28 when it’s all up for grabs.
