'Dumb thing for her to do': Rift between Harris and Biden camps causing internal disruptions, sources say
Fox News ^ | October 14, 2024 | Alec Schemmel , Jacqui Heinrich

Sources close to the White House report an ongoing rift between President Biden and his staff and Kamala Harris and her staff – with issues tracing back to the initial weeks following Harris' nomination by the Democratic Party.

The squabbles have ranged from whether Biden's main surrogates should continue going on TV or be replaced with new Harris surrogates, to debates over whether Biden is undermining Harris' messaging. Other issues have included complaints from the Harris camp that the White House has not moved quickly enough to add staff to the vice president's office to help deal with the bigger workload. The revelations surfaced in a new report Axios published Sunday.

"Everyone from the president on down knows how important the election is, and we always anticipated a number of staff would want to transition from the administration to the campaign for the final stretch," a White House official told Axios. However, simultaneously, the White House has been frustrated over the Harris camp's rules around who can be moved to her office and when, other sources inside the White House told Fox News.

Meanwhile, Biden staffers have also reportedly felt dejected over Biden's exit from the race, sources said, forcing them to play second fiddle to the vice president.

Both presidential staff groups are running out of time to play Musical Chairs. Kamala needs to have lunch with The First Lady. if she really wants somebody to crack the whip and end the bickering.

I have worked in a few political campaigns, and there are always people arguing with each other. The closer you get to election day, the more heated the arguments. Nothing new here.

What workload? The woman hasn’t had a workload since she was put in that office. It’s been a no show job for the last 4 years. So has the Presidency.

News of a rift
between Kammie and that stiff.
Remarks cause a miff
and the aides in a tiff
Media excuse it in a jiff.

The same people that complain about Trump's lack of diplomacy can't refrain from petty squabbles amongst themselves.

Just remember the people who promise to elevate the level of discourse and bring peace to the world are currently engaged in internal backbiting.

The NY Post reported Biden top aide Anita Dunn just jumped ship.

She got blamed for the Biden debate fiasco and supposedly now works for Harris (story on FR).



The story they also want you to believe is that “Dunn” recently
orchestrated a failed coup to oust Biden press secy Karine Jean-Pierre.

Oh, please. Who are they kidding?

Dunn could not have made that dramatic a move without
the explicit knowledge and consent of Joe Biden.

“Sources inside the White House told Fox News that Harris creating a rift with DeSantis was a “dumb thing for her to do,” adding that Biden’s team feels like it has done everything it can to provide Harris with opportunities to demonstrate leadership, but she has fumbled them”
I guess it’s not just Kamala’s staff that can’t stand her.
Now everyone is having to deal with Kamala’s histrionics.
She’s imploding because she’s not getting her way. Her overbearing manipulative behaviors are pissing off everyone in the Whitehut now.
She she can’t control Trump.
Now she can’t control the Whitehut staff or Biden.
She’s losing it! LOL!

Yes. The Office of the Border Czar needs more people to do nothing.
