There’s growing speculation that President Joe Biden might be intentionally undermining Vice President Kamala Harris due to resentment over the possibility of her replacing him on the Democratic ticket.
The rumors gained traction weeks ago when Biden highlighted Harris’s involvement in his policies, just as she began distancing herself from his unpopular decisions.
On Friday, the situation became even more apparent.
Harris spoke at a rally in Michigan, a key state for her potential presidential run, but just two minutes later, Biden appeared in the White House briefing room for a press conference. Major networks cut away from Harris to cover Biden’s remarks on hurricane relief and international issues.
During the Q&A, Biden once again linked Harris to his administration, further fueling the idea that he’s undermining her.
