Democrats are resigning themselves to the fact that they are stuck with Kamala Harris as Joe Biden’s running mate in 2024.
Any hope that the more Americans got to know Harris, the more they would like her long ago went out the window.
And a major prediction about Kamala Harris’ future is the last thing Democrats want to hear.
Joe Biden is the oldest President in American history.
Even Democrats think Biden’s age is an issue.
A recent Wall Street Journal poll showed that 69 percent of Democrats think that Joe Biden is too old to serve as President.
But Biden intends to plow ahead with his reelection campaign.
Biden’s age – Biden would turn 86 at the end of his second term – is forcing the public to confront a harsh truth.
And that is the fact that a vote for Joe Biden is essentially a vote to make Kamala Harris President.
Former George W. Bush speechwriter Marc Theissen said on Fox News that based on the Social Security Administration actuarial tables, there is a 60 percent chance Kamala Harris becomes President if Joe Biden wins reelection.
“Joe Biden is 80 years old. He’d be 86 at the end of a second term. If you look at the Social Security actuarial tables, there’s about a 60% chance that he won’t live until the end of his term, much less be mentally competent to carry out the duties of president of the United States,” Thiessen stated. “So that means there’s a 60% chance, according to the actuarial tables, that Kamala Harris will assume the presidency at some point if Joe Biden gets a second term, so she’s on the ballot.”
Any election that is a referendum on making Kamala Harris President is one Democrats can’t win.
Polls show that Harris is the most unpopular Vice President in history.
Americans don’t like her personally because of odd tics such as the Disney movie villain cackle she bursts into when confronted with a tough question.
And Harris failed in office at the one high-profile task Joe Biden handed her – the job as border czar.
Donald Trump didn’t win the popular vote either time he was on the ballot.
But the American people so reject the idea of Harris ever sitting behind the Resolute Desk in the Oval Office that the RealClearPolitics polling average shows Trump leading Harris by five points in what could be a landslide defeat for Democrats if Harris is on the ballot.
And one way or the other – pundits like Theissen argue – the idea of a Kamala Harris Presidency is on the ballot.
That is bad news for the Democrat Party.
