Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.

Everyone wondered what Harris had been doing as VP. It’s this. Preparing to be president.
The debate schedule was the key. One at the beginning and one near the end. If Biden had killed the first debate like he did with Paul Ryan, he’s the guy. If not, Harris is ready and waiting.
I honestly think the race was never as bleak as it seemed. The Dems know what’s at stake and have finally woken up.
I’m never going trust that the dems have a plan.
Yeah Harris may have been waiting for her shot, and she’s getting my vote absolutely, but this wasn’t some dem moonshot to beat Trump. I voted for Biden against Trump. I’d do it again. But there’s many people I would have rather had as our president as a dem voter. I think Kamala will do great, and I’m glad she’s up for the nomination, but this was a moment of a good president realizing he’d do better for America by stepping down, not some ingenious dem plan to keep the White House.
We don’t; we’re just a surprised as you that things are suddenly back on the rails.
They finally seem to not be tap dancing on their own dicks.
Tampon Tim was a good choice. He's already pwned Corporal Couchfucker from the Public Affairs office.
Ok don't believe me just watch.
I honestly think thatbthisbwas the plan all along. Biden pretending to go for round two and then last second dropping out and stepping aside for Harris
Agree. Ultimate 4d chess when Trump had been aiming all his energy at Biden since b4 the corrupt Ukraine call. Switching to Harris 100 days out is genius.
