"What Biden did is make the pick that maximized his chances of continuing to make the race a straight referendum on Trump while also selecting someone, in Harris, whose resume suggests will be ready to step in if and when Biden decides to step aside."

Regardless, the cabinet probably picked Harris because she can easily ouster him should dementia Joe decide he doesn't want to go..

Think about it, she insinuated and all but called him a racist during several of the debates.

They picked her as his running mate because after January one, if he doesn't step down, she can easily claim he is unfit and is becoming racially divisive/abusive and call for his resignation.

She's a terrible pick. But under the premise that Biden will win no matter what, she makes sense as she's the only one that can call for his resignation immediately.
