What do you think would happen to the Democrat leadership if Biden pulled out and they didn't go with Kamala? Only time will tell. If I led the Democrat party, I would push Biden out and pick someone other than Harris and take the heat which there would be plenty of throwing a woman of color under the bus. Look at the polls and see how many are still standing behind Biden even after the debate.

The rumor inside DC is if they need to replace Biden( and they certainly do if Biden will agree to exit gracefully) is that they will assuage Kamala with a promise of huge financial support for her candidacy for governor. of CA ( which she might well lose anyway) . Also in a nod to their usual identity politics that there will be a woman on their ticket. The problem is that their bench is pitiful, the best are probably the governors like Moore and Shapiro who have no national recognition at all. Most if not all of them centrists at the National level have been pushed out of the party. Look at what happened to Manchin and Gabbard, supposedly both of whom No Labels attempted to recruit. Unless Trump defeats himself ( of which he is capable) I believe that he will be the next President. As you know, the insane lawfare attack on him has totally backfired because it was blatantly political in Bragg’s NYC case and almost definitely that is the only one that will get to a jury before November 5th. After the Supreme’s decision, that verdict might even need to be vacated.
