Biden VP news megathread (pg 286 - been selected, announcement could be today)

[MABA 2020]

Glad it's Harris, sad we didn't get to 300

[Devout Centrist]

Sorry folks, gotta write in Bernie now. It's over

[GeorgiaModerate]

And so, after all this drama, the most predictable ticket people have guessed since like 2017 turns out to be the ticket.

Part of me thinks it was always going to be Harris, barring some major revelation.

I don't mind Harris, but I really hope there'll be a competitive primary in 2024 and not a coronation.

Pretty much my takes on this. Hopefully it isn't considered awful to find faults with her even though I'm still voting for Biden.

I'm much more excited that this drama is over, this thread will be locked & campaign season can finally get 100% underway

Trump right now

[Alben Barkley]

This creates another parallel to 1980 by the way: Reagan chose his primary rival who infamously attacked him on the debate stage as VP.

[LeBron]

I'm disappointed that it's not Bass, but I'm not mad that it's Kamala. It could have been a lot, lot worse (namely Demings).

[OBD]

Missed the announcement by 10 minutes cuz lunch oof (checked my phone once at 1:18 too lmao)

Glad it's finally over. Harris is a fine pick and will be a fine Vice President.

2024 US President: Lean D-Tilt R

[One Term Floridian]

Most predictable VP pick since Tim Kaine lol

[NYSforKennedy2024]

2024 US President: Lean D-Tilt R

Josh Hawley is smiling right now.

[#TheShadowyAbyss]

I'm just glad it's not Rice or Warren

[Illiniwek]

I actually got the text! Although a few minutes after the rest of you...

I give this a B+ selection. She's a do-no/little harm choice. She is not my favorite, considering her past criticism of American Catholics and membership in the Knights of Columbus, but I think she would be a great VP for Biden.

LETS GO WIN AN ELECTION!!!

[mgop]

i like this. all white ticket, but with "kamala is black" spin, black votes are in the bag.

[Crumpets]

Biden/Harris 2020: Be sure to submit your ballot either in person or by mail if possible. Every vote counts!
Biden/Gambon 2024: DID YOU PUT YOUR BALLOT IN THE GOBLET OF FIRE?!?!?!

I don't mind Harris, but I really hope there'll be a competitive primary in 2024 and not a coronation.

A competitive primary is practically a guarantee if she runs.

Sorry folks, gotta write in Bernie now. It's over

I hope you're trolling, because that's absurd. If you actually cared about Bernie and his movement, you wouldn't throw away your vote in a swing state.

[Hammy]

Wonderful, so we have a choice between Trump and somebody Trump has influence over.

[Not Me, Us]

I don't mind Harris, but I really hope there'll be a competitive primary in 2024 and not a coronation.

I hope so. AOC '24!

[Storr]

Yaaaaaaaaaaas.

[BidenHarris2020]

IM SO HAPPYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

[RI]

Yep, Trump will find a way to win

[○∙◄☻¥tπ[╪AV┼cVê└]

It's amazing how 2020 keeps getting worse.

[Kung Fu Kenny]

At least it wasn't Rice. Thank God.

Biden/Harris 2020.
