    Just passed the majority threshold for committed delegates:


    Gotta hand it to her, Biden, and party leadership, they've handled this thing masterfully so far. No infighting.

    Heap a lot of praise on Biden for an incredibly difficult and courageous decision and in supporting Harris. Will be fascinating to watch how Biden finishes his presidency. He goes out on top.

    Kamala's approval rating is less than Joe's. Don't let the lamestream media made up positive polling for Harris over the next few weeks and until after the democratic socialist communist party convention fool any of you here, the 2024 race is over. Trump wins in an even bigger landslide against Harris than Biden.

    Biden must resign. If he is unable to conduct a campaign, he is unable to be the president. If he won't go voluntarily, Harris must use the 25th Amendment to remove him from office.

    If Biden remains as president, we witnessed a coup. The elites in dem leadership have given a middle finger salute to the American people who voted for Biden in the primaries.

    As a separate issue, the FEC will have a field day with these law breakers who take Biden's campaign and money and do nothing more than slap a Harris tag on it. The monetary donations don't forward from Biden to Harris.

    The democratic socialist communist party typically hard at work concealing Biden's health issues to conducting a coup. Pat yourselves on the back as you are wanting to do for supporting this fraud perpetrated against the US Republic but do so knowing you support authoritarianism.

    The Democratic party had no choice but to back Harris 100%. The optics and backlash of removing a minority woman VP from the ticket and replacing her with a white man would have been astronomic and popcorn worthy.

    MAGA sheep are foaming at the mouth now that Sleepy Joe is out of the way and they have a new target to focus on. They live for this kind of stuff.

    Well the Republicans are still trotting an obese 80-year old out there to tell a bunch of lies and rile up MAGA mouthbreathers, that's still kinda popcorn-worthy.

    For the first time in months, I feel there is a chance to avoid the disaster that would be a 2nd Trump term.

    Dude was absolutely horrible in his first term, and that was with adults in the room. He has purged anyone who would tell him "No" this time around so his worst ideas would get full support from his minions. And all he has is bad ideas.

    John Morgan said that he won't be donating any money to Harris as he was wanting either Manchin or Beshear. He donated $1 million to the Biden campaign so far and he typically holds fundraisers

    Imagine calling lying to the American people and covering up the cognitive ability of an American president just to stay in power "masterful".

    This is called damage control.

    But dont worry. The Republican party are about to do the same thing in a couple years.

    Power is a fatal poison.

    "about to"? Are you kidding? Republicans have been lying about diaper boy since 2016. Not to mention blatantly covering up for the convict.

    The GOP really really messed their chances up. They should have shut up about Biden's feebleness, but instead, they harped all over it. Well, now the entire race is upsidedown. This is the same race as when Biden was in it. Not even close.

    Anyone thinking Harris is an easier candidate than Biden, well, I apologize for saying this, but you are not 'getting' this. Harris will get the younger female vote, she will get the bulk of the suburban mom vote, she will get the VAST majority of the black vote. We are already seeing that black women are flocking to Harris.

    The facts are hard for a lot on this message board to grapple with, and believe me, I get it. I didn't used to think Kamala was a viable candidate. But after seeing the massive response to her candidacy, she's going to be FAR more difficult for Trump to defeat than Biden would have been. If she chooses the Pennsylvania governor, she will not only carry THAT state, but probably Michigan as well. And THAT means, she is only one state from the nomination.

    Any poll that has come out since this weekend can be thrown in the trash. The election just changed, and NOT in the GOP's favor. She is completely changing the election.

    Dems finally grew the balls to get rid of their old fart. Let me know when Pubs do the same.
