They need to get rid of her so they can move Biden’s replacement into the VP position.

I’ve been thinking about that same possibility for awhile. They may think they have all aspects of the government locked up so tight that he can’t really do anything significant during his second term, especially if he’s being attacked with lawfare and more impeachments the whole time.

Haha if she did, she would almost certainly lose the Democrat Primary to anyone else.

She’d crash and burn if she tried. One of the reasons she would up getting out of the Presidential race in 2020, was she was getting pummeled in the primary polling in her home state.

If she tries to run for Governor in California, she won’t even win the Democrat Primary there.

There’s the exit scenario for Kamala. The announcement will come during the convention.

Kammy would be an ideal Democrat Governor for Kalifornia. No thinking involved and lots of gifts from the uber rich power brokers who really run things. She proves how women can get ahead in the state—like many Hollywood actresses...

Freepers are so bad - maybe some past mayor of San Francisco could assist her...

She absolutely should do it. California deserves her. And the truth is that she’d be better for them than anyone else who might have a chance of winning.

Polling shows that 72% of Americans think Harris is literally mentally retarded. So...you are probably right.

It's either that, or she has one heck of a wine and pot habit.

Nixon lost the gubernatorial race in California in 1962...but at least he won the Republican primary (against a real conservative).

There's still time before the election for her to be resigned.

If she did lose she could tell reporters they didn’t have Harris to suck up to any more.

Her as governor would be a fitting end of California.
