Joe Biden’s debate performance led to increased calls for him to step aside and withdraw from the Presidential race.
But Democrats are concerned over the fact that Kamala Harris is second in line behind Joe Biden.
That’s why Kamala Harris could be the reason Democrats stop supporting the Left’s woke agenda.
Democrats realized they had a problem the moment Joe Biden took the debate stage last week and started speaking.
Biden’s senility was on full display as he mumbled his words and appeared lost and confused for the entire 90 minutes.
Many Democrats and members of the media started discussing how to replace Joe Biden and who to replace him with before he even walked off the debate stage.
Of course, the Vice President would be the next choice in a normal situation.
But Vice President Kamala Harris is even less popular than Joe Biden.
And her name was left out of the discussion among Democrats about who should replace Joe Biden on the ticket this fall.
“Amid all of the Democratic panic-texting prompted by President Joe Biden’s shaky debate performance Thursday, one name was curiously absent from many of those conversations: Vice President Kamala Harris,” POLITICO reported. “Names including California Gov. Gavin Newsom and Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer trended online as potential replacements for Biden on the Democratic ticket, while Harris — by several measures the most obvious and best-positioned candidate — was left to publicly defend Biden at the single worst moment of their four-year-old political partnership.”
But replacing Biden with someone other than Harris puts the Democrats at odds with their woke allies on the Left.
Kamala Harris, being a black woman, checks off two of the woke Left’s identity politics boxes.
According to POLITICO, allies of Harris are furious that Gavin Newsom and Gretchen Whitmer’s names were mentioned above hers and called it “offensive.”
Governors Newsom and Whitmer are both white.
Others mentioned above Harris, Governors J.B. Pritzker and Josh Shapiro, are also white.
POLITICO reported that Harris’ allies are “expressing frustration that her name is not being mentioned in the same company as other ambitious Democrats.”
“The fact that people keep coming back to this is so offensive to so many of us,” one Harris ally said. “They still don’t get that the message you’re saying to people, to this Democratic Party, is, we prefer a white person.”
“If they think they are going to get through South Carolina bashing an effective and qualified Black woman vice president — their instincts are as bad as I thought they were,” a second source added.
Right now, it appears that Joe Biden is planning on staying in the race against Donald Trump.
Only time will tell what decision he makes.
But Democrats could end up throwing the woke agenda under the bus should they have to pick a replacement for Biden.
