Despite easily winning the primary and currently being the most powerful man in the world, Joe Biden appears to be going down as the first president in history to be pushed out by party elites after winning the nomination.
Yesterday, New Conservative Post noted that the Democrats brought in its closer to seal the deal and toss Biden over the cliff. Now, it appears the final step before turning Biden into a true laughingstock is to secure the nomination of Kamala Harris for president.
That’s exactly what the GOP is preparing for, writes The Daily Caller.
That was until the last week of news. From reports of Obama’s increasing pessimism, to top Democrats thinking he could step aside by this weekend, a world where Vice President Kamala Harris is at the top of the Democratic ticket seems all the more likely. As the Biden campaign implodes, top Republicans at the RNC seemed ready to address the possibility, and floated ideas of how to attack Harris on the campaign trail in conversations with the Daily Caller.
“Let’s get to the truth. Let’s start with that. One of the issues with Kamala Harris is that she earned her position expressly based on race and gender. Don’t take my word for it — look at the litany of what Democrats said leading up to her nomination, I think of quoting exact Democratic senators and fellow presidential contenders, numerous of them who said it is our time to put a woman of color on that ticket. That’s their words, not mine,” former presidential candidate and Trump surrogate Vivek Ramaswamy told the Caller.
If Harris becomes the nominee and Republicans need to pivot to running against her, Thomas Hodgson, Chairman of the Trump campaign in Massachusetts, told the Caller that the GOP should focus on getting as many eyes on Harris as possible.
“I would want to see probably a lot of conversations with her, because she doesn’t articulate herself very well. I think it would expose the fact that she’s done very, very little,” Hodgson said. “She was supposedly in charge of the border. She never went to the border. The border has been open … She just doesn’t care. She doesn’t care to articulate what is happening or shouldn’t be happening. And so I would want to see just a lot of conversation around that.”
The move to switch Biden for Harris has left some scratching their heads. She does not poll particularly better than the president does against Donald Trump.
Harris may also want to wait on measuring the drapes of the Oval Office, however. Although the movement to cast Biden aside has been relentless, the Biden campaign insists that they’re going to keep chugging along.
