Biden is still her boss, and Harris deeply respects him. They just want her to criticize hm in public, which she is unwilling to do and really shouldn’t do.

I cant remember Veeps going strong on criticizing their president while running for that job. Did Gore say bad stuff about Bill Clinton?

Yep.

I concur.

Ohmygawd. I said one of the few things trump could do that would turn his current voters against him was “using the N-word” and this is about as close as you can get.

Only in the primaries.
