She also openly said she believed Tara Reade. The Trump campaign will be flooding the airwaves with ads of her own words.
She's a good choice. Her or Demmings would have been fine, whereas Abrams or Bass would've been disasters with Rice subjected to Benghazi stuff for three months.
cant wait for the conservative never trumpers to finally write their op-eds about how THIS is the straw that broke their vote for joe biden and pushed them to write in thomas jefferson or whatever
There's a lot to gripe about and make fun of, but Pences desire, albeit out there, to honor his wife is one that bugs me.
One of the main reasons she was chosen is Trump will have a hard time defining her or creating a negative persona, which was not the case with other possible nominees and important when you choose a running mate. Her weakness in the primary was defining her policy, which won't matter in the general election because she's not there to tout her policy, but Biden's. It's the basic requirement of the VP choice, do no harm. You can already see the trouble as the Trump people have had a pretty good idea for months Harris was the likely choice and the best they can do is call her "phony". He also called her "mean" and "nasty" a bunch of times, which is, apparently, his go to description of women who have a little backbone. He's had to retreat to the usual lines Republicans throw out every four years, the "most radical leftist candidate ever" or "socialist". In the end, does Harris bring Biden any votes? Maybe some, but not much. Does Harris lose Biden any votes? Maybe a few, but not much. The VP selection is almost always the same effect, mused upon about their influence on the race and then largely uninfluential as the race goes along. The only one who made much of an impact I can remember was Sarah Palin and that wasn't good. My guess is Harris will be a good advocate for Biden and Trump won't focus much on her during the campaign.
