Kamala Harris has come from nowhere to be thrust into the biggest political contest in human history!

The democrats didn't think Joe could win, they are going to hope Kamala gets a monumental big bounce in support in order for her to win, with just months to go for election!

I think it will work. Basically there is a huge demographic which has said they don't want to vote for either old man. Since one senile old man is locked in this will be a obvious jump. A Democrat black women ticks a lot of boxes and only pisses off the racists.

The US Republic might yet be saved

magicbastarder

has he 'officially' handed the baton over?

i assume it's not within his power to decide who the nominee is.

He hasn't handed anything over to Harris, he thanked her for being a partner, I think it's a little early to assume she is going to be the Democratic nominee.

The ones who sat on the sidelines, deciding to wait until 2028, after another 4 years of Trump, should now be told, sod off the pitch.

Thread title changed. Biden has not resigned and remains President until his successor is inaugurated

Kamala Harris is not yet nominated to contest the election, but has been endorsed by Biden

He'll probably get remembered in Ireland for the deaths in Gaza.

I wonder who will be the VP?

Kite flying for Hillary Clinton open convention.

Ready for Round 2: Why we Need Hillary more than ever

Clinton is a ready-made replacement. She possesses an unparalleled resume and an unmatched depth of experience. She has consistently redefined the roles she has served, from secretary of State and U.S. senator to first lady and Children’s Defense Fund attorney. Her extensive background in domestic and international affairs is not just impressive; at a time when global politics are increasingly volatile and complex, her experience is priceless. Her continued advocacy for children’s rights and health care—a topic of ever-increasing importance post-pandemic—adds another layer of appeal.  source

I recall Kamilla Harris comparing the riot in Capital Hill with Pearl Harbour and September 11th.

Doubt it.

Four threads on US politics in CA alone, what a time to be alive.

A bit of common sense breaking through at last. She's a horrible option to put up against Trump, just hasn't got the tools to really do damage to him but maybe she's got all she needs……..she's a woman of colour and should live to see out one term in office at least.

I think the electorate just want an excuse to vote for anything remotely better than a man on the cusp of death or a fascist regime. Maybe Trump will be beaten back now.

Disgraceful from Biden falling for all those far right conspiracy theories about his health being an issue and hi not being able to be a proper president because of it.You;d think he'd be the last person in the world to fall for such obvious conspiracies theories but I guess no-one is immune these days.

Glaceon

Well that's Trump getting back in then. I hope I'm proven wrong but I just can't see the US voting in a woman for president.

Beechwoodspark

Trump needs to drop out now.

He is senile, talks nonsense, spreads complete disinformation, and was almost shot dead last week - his speech at the convention showed he is not right in the head.

Donald Trump

Makes no difference. I'd batter any of them.

micar

Sad for Biden but he's done the right thing.

Trump will be worried now….I hope Harris kicks his ass.

Bring on the next debate

It takes a certain level of intelligence to understand the bigliest of speeches. Not many have it.

Joe Biden has publicly backed Kamala to be President multiple times

She is now 2/1 to be President in the betting !.;There are no other contenders. That's a big bump over Joe already!

kabakuyu

Right decision from Biden,I wish him well in his retirement. Will always be remembered for stopping the orange man in 2020

riddles

Biden managed to air brush Harris out of his tenure and now he’s endorsing her. A more competent candidate is clearly needed.

Didn't he say only God Almighty could oust him?

God saved Trump, and ousted Biden. This is American politics.

Trump is guaranteed the election no matter if Biden stayed or is replaced by anyone else.

in fairness this country has basically outsourced its fundamental security and a huge chunk of its economic security to the US so yes it’s not surprising .

He stepped down so god need not apply.

Donald Trump

2:1 is fairly crap odds in what will be effectively a 2-horse race. That would almost be getting to "shock if she won" territory……….

BRING BACK BERNIE. Might be a bit of competition then. An easy win is no good to anyone

He should have done this month's ago. Not sure Harris is a good option. She doesnt poll well.
