So they are going to put up a candidate that hasn’t been voted on. Because Trump is a threat to democracy? Sounds right.This is exactly what I think is going to happen. Always have. This commenter said it perfectly from the Matt Taibbi site that I was reading last night.
This is best way to kill two problem birds with one stone. They dump two unpopular people in Biden and Harris and have a valid excuse for axing a female POC. Even if Newsome loses, his profile is raised for the next cycle. I honestly think that the country isn't ready for someone as liberal as Newsome and I also believe most of the country doesn't know how left he is. This gives him a chance to "evolve" like he already has been doing but going against many leftie policies that he would have been all for a few years ago.
This guy summed it up perfectly.
Biden is a placeholder for the Democrats. Once the primary season is done, but sometime before the Democrat Convention (August 19) but after the last state primaries (early June), Biden will have a come to Jesus moment, Dr, Jill will advise that for his health he is withdrawing, the Party will tee up the candidate they will run on. Likely Gavin Awesome. Then Gavin will have a surprise VP pick and that will be confirmed at the Party Convention. Kamala won't be the VP nominee because the Constitution, Art. II prohibits an elector from voting for two people from their own state for the office of President and VP. Cali has 55 votes and that could end up in some chaos if the 55 Cali electors can't vote for both Gavin Hairgel and Kamala Gigglebot. At least that is how the Dems will sell a pick other than Harris. It will still be an identitarian intersectional candidate but more competent than Harris. So it will be Trump/? versus Newsome/?
