Vice President Kamala Harris was back on the campaign trail this weekend, raising money for the Biden-Harris ticket on Cape Cod while President Biden remained sidelined by COVID in Delaware. The fundraiser in Provincetown focused on Trump’s anti-LGBTQ policies, with Harris warning against Ohio Sen. JD Vance’s potential role as a rubber stamp for Trump’s agenda.
As speculation grows about the future of Biden’s campaign, calls for him to step aside and let a younger candidate take over have been increasing. Some lawmakers like Rep. Mark Takano and Sen. Elizabeth Warren have praised Harris as a strong candidate to lead the ticket. Despite the growing pressure, Biden has insisted he will stay in the race.
Biden, who tested positive for COVID, is expected to return to the campaign trail once he receives clearance from his doctor. His symptoms are reportedly improving, but concerns about his age and abilities have heightened following a challenging debate against Trump. The pace of Democrats calling for Biden to step aside has intensified since the Republican National Convention.
In the midst of this uncertainty, Harris is stepping up and garnering support as a potential leader for the Democratic Party. She has been commended for her tenacity, experience, and ability to unite the party. As the 2024 election approaches, the spotlight remains on Biden’s health, Harris’s rising popularity, and the future of the Democratic ticket.
