The former president has always considered himself to be the ultimate disrupter. But this time, the disruption is on the other side.
Through the weekend, there were an awful lot of questions that were going back and forth from people in the president’s tightest circle, and one of the questions that kept being asked was whether Joe Biden was going to endorse Kamala Harris or not. And the question didn’t revolve around whether he wanted to or not, but whether people in her camp thought it would be better for her to fight for it, win it on her own, and not be seen as somebody who was tapped by President Biden and so, in her own way, have a fresh start going into the campaign.
So the timing seems to be about as good as it could have been to end what has just been one of the craziest two or three weeks in American politics in quite some time.
Williamson didn’t break 10% in the 2020 primary. What makes you think she’s going to capture more of the Democratic vote now?
I didn’t say she would. I said Kamala needs to prove herself… she needs to have some public discourse with other people to show the public she is the best candidate. If another candidate makes her look weak and she can’t talk about an agenda in details, then she’s not going to do very well.
She has been the fucking VICE PRESIDENT for awhile now, and she’s been an attorney general AND a district Attorney. She does not need to “prove herself”.
So the Joe & Kamala ticket was losing in polls badly, causing other Democrats to suffer. Kamala is going to have the exact same issue if she doesn’t prove herself. What she proved so far was she was fine with genocide, she was fine with elder abuse. If she doesn’t distance herself from Joe and show us something different, then Joe might as well have stayed in. What is a democracy if the voters have no say in the matter, and the nomination is just given to the same corporate puppet that stood alongside the losing candidate?
