It would be an understatement to say that the fallout from the presidential debate has been bad for President Joe Biden. The backlash and questions of Biden's political future have been reverberating across the country ever since.
While he told campaign staff and a group of Democratic governors that he plans on staying in the race, it seems Democrats should seriously consider a replacement who has been there this whole time.
In the aftermath, one politician is getting a boost from social media: Vice President Kamala Harris.
The “KHive” is making its presence known on X (formerly Twitter), where “Kamala” has been one of the trending topics. The posts range from calls for her to step into the role to memes about coconut trees, comparisons with the HBO show “Veep” and fan cams of her set to music from Charli XCX’s “Brat.”
It seems like she’s looking to capitalize on it, too. Her team is looking for a new social media strategist to “further develop and expand the Vice President’s and Biden-Harris campaign’s voice online.”
I don’t hate the idea of a Harris campaign. I also don’t know if she should take the reins. Either way, her increased involvement on the campaign trail could be good for Biden and the Democratic Party.
