Jill Biden Hits Campaign Trail Amid Alleged Rift with Harris
During the 2020 debate season, Kamala Harris all but called Joe Biden a racist during a debate.
At the time, there were reports that Jill was furious with Harris over her comments.
Now, however, Jill is hitting the trial for Harris, claiming the two of them have bonded during the Biden administration.
We’re Buddies Now
At the time of the debate, Harris was one of the clear favorites to win that nomination, but her attacks against Joe Biden fell flat on several levels.
Harris brought up Joe Biden’s position on bussing programs during the debate, saying that had Biden gotten his way, she may not be on that stage.
It was a clear attack, in essence calling Joe Biden a racist. And she followed that up with a rather controversial interview in the spin room.
After the debate was over, it was reported that Jill Biden was livid, telling those in her inner circle that Harris could “go f*** herself.”
The attack failed, and Harris dipped in polling and was out of the race before the first vote was cast. Biden was on his last breath, but he was saved in South Carolina, and went on to win the nomination, naming Harris as his VP.
Neither Joe nor Jill were initially campaigning for Harris, and the rumors were that Harris did not want them on the trail because she was trying to separate from Biden.
That has now changed as Harris gets desperate. In fact, the campaign was very complimentary, stating, “We are incredibly grateful to have Dr. Biden campaigning for Vice President Harris in the states and communities that will decide this election.
“From Reno to the Philly suburbs, she has connected with voters and generated wall-to-wall coverage, all driving the stakes of this election for women's freedoms and the economy.”
Jill returned the kind words, stating, “As Kamala and I have gotten to know each other these past four years, you know, we bonded over many things, but one of the things that we talked about is how we lost our mothers, both to cancer, both long before we were done needing them.”
I don’t believe that for a second. I believe Harris bent the knee and kissed the ring because that is the way she was going to get the Bidens out on the trail for her.
