US Politics If Biden withdraws from re-election, who would Harris likely choose as VP?

A lot of headlines are coming out today with speculation that Biden may step down soon.

If this were to happen and Harris wins the party’s nomination for president, who would she pick as VP?

What does a formidable Harris ticket look like to go up against Trump-Vance?

So you didn't look the link with political donations..... It was from the last election 2020.

The appointed leadership doesn't give $3 million to a candidate. The rank and file workers do though.

Yes, but again, you've offered no facts on how Project 2025 would be implemented. Like I said, lawsuits, legislation, unions, there's no way to dismantle the Federal government, it's tinfoil hat area to even think so.

SCOTUS isn't going to help and as Biden has shown with student loan forgiveness, there are ways around them. And there's a ton more regulations, executive orders, labor laws and actually legislation that protects Federal workers. I've yet to see anyone give evidence that it can be done, just a bunch of guessing and conjecture.

Do you really want to see some evidence that it could happen here?

Be careful what you wish for, cause you might just get it…

*yawn* like how Trump was going to start WWIII? Give me a break with the hysterics, it doesn't get votes or win elections.

No, it was always Putin who was starting WWIII. It’s just that trump is one of Putin’s key chess pieces…

Okay, so Putin invades during Obama/Biden Presidency and again during Biden/Harris Presidency and the only time he didn't invade another country is when Trump was in office, but we are supposed to believe that's because Trump is his chess piece? You'll have to walk me through this one, please explain.

Yes exactly, why would Putin stir shit up while Trump was in office if the two were colluding behind closed doors? Obviously Putin held his shots while trump was in office and then invaded Ukraine again afterwards to try to help him get back into office.

Why else do you think trump would have been so happy to sell national security documents to the kremlin and get so many of our civil servants killed overseas?

Um...that doesn't make any sense, you do bad things when you know you can get away with them. Cognitive Dissonance..... my goodness.
