Amid growing concerns within the Democratic Party about President Joe Biden's re-election campaign, discussions have emerged about the potential replacement of Biden on the ticket. However, Vice President Kamala Harris presents a significant obstacle due to her role and the influence of identity politics. Harris, who was assigned the border with Mexico as her primary portfolio, has been criticized for her limited engagement on the issue. Prominent voices within the party, such as James Carville, have suggested that the Democrats need to take decisive action to address the situation. Despite these concerns, some argue that the party is stuck with Biden due to the complexities of replacing him and the perceived shortcomings of Harris as an alternative candidate. Democratic politicos are panicking, describing the situation as a boat riddled with holes. Some believe Kamala is even worse, making Biden the only viable option.
Dems Are Stuck with Biden. Astute analysis from @josh_hammer I've been making this argument for months in my media appearances -- the Dems painted themselves into a corner with their own identity politics obsession. Kamala is even worse, so it's Joe! https://t.co/6YREcsxXj2
"There is no point in choosing not to rock the boat when the boat is riddled with holes and sinking like a rock. Democratic politicos panicking over Biden’s campaign should have known where this would be going..." -@ZacharyFaria https://t.co/B3iFJMn5NJ
Opinion: Joe Biden has a problem. Her name is Kamala Harris https://t.co/rmYVzdg2cj
From @WSJopinion: Democrats dream of Biden’s stepping aside for a more appealing candidate. But there is a hitch. Her name is Kamala Harris, and identity politics gives her an effective veto over any plans to swap out candidates, writes @wjmcgurn. https://t.co/0Yc11mSg1y
Take Carville’s wisdom one step further: Evict Biden from the ticket https://t.co/k48UPdDkJ6 via @dcexaminer Democrats still have a chance to get this right.
"The one significant portfolio Mr. Biden gave her was the border with Mexico. She made one visit, and has since given it a wide berth. She rightly recognizes it’s a loser for the Biden administration." The Unsinkable Kamala Harris by @wjmcgurn https://t.co/l9yZhgjWmb via…
