I've seen people saying that from the moment she didn't leave him they knew she stayed as a scheme to become president herself, and then used NY as a stepping stone to get there.

The names I've heard the most are Shapiro, Beshear, and Cooper. Basically balancing her out with the whitest white boy governors from a purple-to-red state.

Stefanik is high up in the party, it's a concerted strategy. They're trying to force the Dems to have to choose in a "they can't have their cake and eat it too" way.

Stefanik too do they really want Kamala to become president? all their "Trump 47" merch would go to waste, even if Trump won

She's not the one "behind" it, but it sure did pick up steam when she committed to it.

My aunt was probing me yesterday about my thoughts on JD Vance and his "picture perfect American story" and I should have just told her that I don't give a shit about the dude's background if his party's agenda is just to fuck me out of spite.

kid was just looking for a president to shoot https://www.nytimes.com/2024/07/17/us/politics/secret-service-trump-shooting.html

Yeah I don't think he has any plans or intent to drop out.

I don't think so. They're still barrelling forward with the virtual roll call vote to lock him in before the actual convention. I think the simplest solution is he's trying to mollify the age people by implying "maybe you're right that I can't serve the full four years, but fortunately Kamala is already ready so calm down and support us."

I think he is trying to emphasize her role as successor in the administration. Not because he's dropping out, but as a mild concession to the age complaints. The theory being he can calm that storm without dropping out simply by boosting his #2.
