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 presidentās tightest circle, and one of the questions that kept being asked was whetherĀ Joe BidenĀ was going to endorseĀ Kamala HarrisĀ or not. And the question didnāt revolve around whetherĀ heĀ 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 startĀ 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.
Whatās weird is she is relaxing. After all the chaos and bullshit and jagged geriatrics from those two guys, itās just relaxing to see her.
.
Surprised the hell out of me when I realized every time I saw her photo some tension left my shoulders. More so the moment I realized she was running. Weird outside of the context of the jagged geriatrics dance of chaos and decline of the last 8 years, within that context, not so much. I cannot be alone in that sensation. .
Donāt underestimate that impact. Itās a show stopper.
sheās also like young, comparatively, experienced, and knows what sheās doing. Which is a nice bump from the previous trump, though biden does also have experience, iām not sure how much that matters or is even still true anymore.
Donāt withhold credit for Bidenās experience. Even his withdrawal was a shrewdly calculated political maneuver.
oh absolutely, this was strategically planned to be optimally timed lmao.
