Does Joe Biden want Kamala Harris to be his vice president anymore?
There are rumors that he doesn’t.
“Joe Biden’s relationship with Kamala Harris is in crisis, with her staff furious that she is being ‘sidelined,’ while the president’s team are increasingly frustrated by how she is playing with American public,” reports the Daily Mail. “Harris’ approval rating has plunged even further than Biden’s in recent months, with rumors swirling that the president is considering appointing her to the Supreme Court as a backdoor method of selecting a new VP.”
Wait, what? Really?
Something doesn’t smell right here. The Daily Mail’s source for this “rumor” is the now notorious CNN story exposing the dysfunction behind the scenes of the Biden-Harris administration. Here’s what it says:
Defenders and people who care for Harris are getting frantic. When they’re annoyed, some pass around a recent Onion story mocking her lack of more substantive work, one with the headline, “White House Urges Kamala Harris To Sit At Computer All Day In Case Emails Come Through.” When they’re depressed, they bat down the Aaron Sorkin-style rumor that Biden might try to replace her by nominating her to a Supreme Court vacancy. That chatter has already reached top levels of the Biden orbit, according to one person who’s heard it.
Aaron Sorkin, of course, is the creator of the hit show “The West Wing,” which ran from 1999 to 2006. This rumor certainly would make for a hell of a plot for a political television drama. However, it doesn’t seem likely—not in this reality of the multiverse. If there’s friction between Biden and Kamala Harris, why would he want to reward her with a lifetime appointment?

Kamala the Uganda wrestler would be a better SCOTUS pick.

Yeah, let’s put kamala in the same room with Sam Alito.
Hillary will call the Suicide Hot Line, and then place an order.
There’s a vacancy on the Supreme Court? After next year, The Republicans are likely to have a majority in the Senate. Maximum pressure needs to be brought to bear on them to not allow Brandon a single judicial appointment.
Third in line is the Speaker of the House. Little known fact is that the Speaker of the house does not have to be a member of Congress. Don’t know if these means anything, just adding to the discussion. Has anyone seen Hillary lately? /s
“No sane Senate”
At least until “racist! sexist!”
OK, let’s say Brandon nominates Kamala to SCOTUS should a vacancy occur. Would she have to resign as VP before she could be confirmed. Nothing in the Constitution says so. If all the dems voted to confirm her and all the Republicans voted against her, could she be the tie-breaking vote to get the position.
No, I’m afraid anything of the kind would get us even deeper into the Third-World-Banana Republic than we already are.
I’m sure HE didn’t pick her.
He was told who his running mate would be and to act like it was his decision.
Quit sulking Joe. It's not the first coup in history.
I wonder if Harris would accept a lesser position on a District or Circuit court?
Maybe it's just the leftover smell from the 2020 election counting.
How about night court.....& pete buttjiggler can be the Bull character.
If they were going to ditch Harris, it would be by scandal. She would then resign to spend more time with her family.
Same logic applies to any A25 proposals. So, yes, we're stuck with the idiot in chief.
It was a betrayal and total selfish disregard for the country, the voters, their viewers and their fans. All because THEY hate Trump.
Yes HATE, not hated. They hate Trump.
Under the 25th amendment, anyone can be nominated by the president to fill a vacant VP position. Until that nomination is approved by a majority in each house of congress, the pig would be a heartbeat away.
I don’t see her ever becoming President. They’ll invent a reason to get rid of her. The big question is who is picked to replace her? Bernie Sanders...?
It is possible that Breyer could retire after the current term. That would mean sometime this summer at the earliest, there could be a vacancy. If Biden were to nominate Harris at this point, it would be such a political superstorm that McConnell would certainly put a hold until after the elections.
So for this scheme to work would require several rolls of the dice turning up 7.
Ah, there’s the rub!
