PRELUDE TO BRAT SUMMER: Ex-Dem insider exposes what Harris told top donors days before Biden dropped out: ‘All charade.’
Just 48 hours before Biden dropped out of the race, Harris tried to peddle the narrative that the president was still seeking a second term.
“It was either on July 19th or July 20th,” Li said, describing a call Harris held with Dem donors.
“Actually, I think it was July 19, 2024; Kamala Harris held a call saying that there was no way that Biden would drop out and that she would stick with him until the end. And these were some of the biggest donors in the party.”
But some donors were unconvinced by the narrative Harris was trying to peddle, according to Li, who branded the veep’s approach “insulting.”
“A lot of us have group chats,” she said.
“And the immediate reaction is what an effing waste of time. What a charade, how fake. Like these are like the wealthiest people in the country saying that. They were very aware they were being lied to, that Biden was clearly not okay and to be told that he was okay when he was clearly incapacitated.”
Biden announced he was suspending his campaign on July 21, which prompted Harris to rush in and shore up his donors’ support.
Well, you can’t fault her for looking to gain strength from the appearance of joy.
