    Yeah but she was a sitting senator so she was in the club. She was a black woman so she ticked the right boxes to balance out Bidens white man. And she was a prosecutor who worked well with the police so she countered the defund the police message thay centrist dems were sure would sink them.

    She was a very very logical choice for Biden’s VP.

        She absolutely hesitated to comment on continuing to back the war on Gaza. She played by the script but it gave me the impression that she wasn’t on board when she paused and gave a vague answer instead. That’s when I felt like she would’ve departed from Biden’s legacy but was looking for a better moment to do it, but that’s only my interpretation.
