But why misdirect? Seems like unnecessary subterfuge with just a few days before the announcement. It's going to be Rice, imo.

Biden has made the decision and could announce as early as today.

called trump an idiot more times than you can imagine.... sometimes the dude cracks me up. kinda wish he was the leader of a different country. entertaining as hell.

RINO Ben Sasse, who needed my support and endorsement in order to get the Republican nomination for Senate from the GREAT State of Nebraska, has, now that he’s got it (Thank you President T), gone rogue, again. This foolishness plays right into the hands of the Radical Left Dems!

Thanks for the clear explanation. Am I supposed to believe Sasse actually cares about the constitution and Trump signing crazy executive orders? That's the alternative and I see no evidence that Sasse cares about the Constitution. He's getting something from his comments.

But it might be too late to get on ballots.

Kind of funny how it came out. I was getting that same countdown as it seems everybody else was. First Abrams came out that she was notified that she was not the pick, then Bass was notified, and then kaboom Harris is announced.

I did not hear Whitmer announced she was out of the running, but I thought that was over when her husband tried to pressure his way to getting his boat on the water, while everything was in lockdown in Michigan.

I never thought he would pick Warren, but I think control of the Senate would be a factor. MASS has a GOP governor who would surely appoint a Republican to fill that seat, making it harder for the Dems to win control in November.

Daughter of Jamaican and Indian immigrant parents who rose up to some of the highest levels of government, and is married to a white guy because she loves him, if she throws out that she's fluent in Spanish which she may well be she pushes darn near every button.
