New book out re Biden selecting Kamala as VP

President Biden knows full well Vice President Kamala Harris is “not up to the job” of commander-in-chief — and he preferred Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer as his running mate in 2020 before caving to public pressure, according to a new book out Tuesday.

While the 59-year-old Harris is just “a brain stroke away from the presidency,” her “many struggles and mistakes during her first years in office were top of mind” for the now-81-year-old president heading into his re-election campaign, Spiering writes

As a former vice president himself, Biden was aware that Harris “lacked” the necessary political skills but ended up making “one of the most pandering decisions of any vice-presidential pick in modern history,” in Spiering’s words.

In return, “Harris barely suppressed her impatience and disdain for the president” during their time together in office, he adds, while “reading platitudes from the teleprompter” during her own public events

Supposedly

At this point, they barely speak and rarely have lunch together anymore as used to be the custom. Part of this is Jill, she still hates Kamala and goes around the Whitehouse picking up the banana peels Kamala levels on the Steps for Joe Joe to slip on.

If Joe Joe dies or becomes incapacitated in office, Bugs Bunny could run against and beat Kamal in the Presidential race.

You all KNOW, that if she ascends to the office of President there is ZERO chance of her stepping down for another candidate for the 2024 ticket.

Imagine how pissed the Dem pols like Newsom and Whitmer will be if Joe doesn’t make it to November and Kamala is just anointed as the Dem nominee.

The clock is already ticking . . . .

on primary season and the chance for Whitmer of Newsom to make a go of it is slipping away with each state's primary election. As you say, if it's not Joe, it will be Kamala by default, and if it's not Kamala, it will be too much chaos to fix before the general election. Trump wins so matter what the scenario between now and November.

The only one who could replace Kamala is another black woman -- Michelle Obama.

“Failing Upward”

Kamala Harris’s political career shows how an ambitious individual “can fail upward” and find herself just a heartbeat away from the presidency, @charliespiering explains in his new book Amateur Hour: Kamala Harris in the White House.

Charlie Spiering began his career as a political journalist fifteen years ago as a reporter for Washington Post columnist Robert D. Novak. He was a political writer for the Washington Examiner before moving to Breitbart News as a White House correspondent covering the Obama Administration, the Trump Administration, and the Biden Administration. He lives in Virginia with his wife and six children
