Adding to the chorus... Right or wrong, I suspect a lot of this has been intentional. How much? I'm not sure. But I agree there is Democratic strategy happening here.
Is it good strategy? We'll know sometime between now and November.

I'd say the best strategy they could have adopted this late in the game. Of course might still not be enough...

This election is all about Trump- all Dems have to do is point at him..actually, the best strategy now would be to soak up air time with some drama around the nomination, and let Trump rave and rant ..Remember, Biden didn't get elected because people thought he would make a great President, they just knew he wasn't Trump
KH's slogan should be ' No to Project 2025'

I hope Harris has the ovaries to get nasty in her descriptions of him, his policies, his treatment of women, his convictions, his unending lies, his denigration of every single group of people in this country who aren't loyal to him. There is no playing nice, I need brutal honest assessments of him from every non maga candidate.

But remember she is a woman, Americans don't like aggressive women ..maybe get a Veep candidate to be tough and nasty ..

So far, it looks like Pete Buttigieg is the Harris campaign's designated pit bull. But there's room for more than one.

The NY Times is reporting that Bob Menendez will (finally) resign from the U.S. Senate at the end of August.
Why wait?!?!?!?

He's learned nothing from how trump deals with these situations. He should stay as long as his endless appeals drag on.

After the convention.
The VP choice will have been made, from the looks of things the current VP will be the nominee, and the Dems have time to vet someone who doesn't accept gold bricks for sweetheart deals.
Also Mercury is about to go retrograde which makes decision making during that time sus as they say now.

I think Vance is perfect for Trump. Young, aggressive, white, isolationist etc.

This is just an observation by me and probably means nothing but the people who were screaming the loudest that President Biden had to go have gone radio silent. Not a peep out of them.
I have to say that the way this has been rolled out was surgical. I don't think this was POTUS walking in and throwing up his hands screaming "I'M OUT!" This was a well prepared and implemented strategy.
Think the Democrats waiting until Mr. Delay chose his running mate at RNC. GOP wanted Biden to stay in especially after the debate as they thought, behind close doors, that if Democrats did not name Biden as their candidate, GOP chances of taking over government will be taking a dip.
