This is what I'm starting to think. She obviously can't win a primary, even with her experience at VP. This is their only shot. They tried really hard to make her a thing in 2020.

What do y'all think?

I don't think Biden himself would go along with that, so if i had to make a guess without much thought put in, I'd say:

The dem establishment will WANT to and probably try to, but Biden won't have it and it'll lead to some very clear awkward bitterness between him and Harris

Based on how they've used Harris so far, and the stuff Harris said in debates with Biden, I imagine there's already a gulf of bitterness between the president and vice president

100p. I guess i just meant it would become ever more apparent, forward, obvious, and funny (to us)

Just thinking about stuff Biden has said about Obama and internally cringing at the future possibilities

Who could have guessed making your vp pick the person whos biggest moment was calling you out for being an ancient racist might lead to a tense working relationship.
