Vice President Kamala Harris' allies discuss scenarios in the event that President Joe Biden decides not to keep his reelection campaign going.

Vice Kamala Harris allies are discussing scenarios in the event that President Joe Biden drops out of the 2024 campaign.

Harris' allies have been pushing other donors and party officials to reconsider the potential advantages the vice president's policy portfolio could bring to a Democratic campaign platform: Her focus onthat features the vice president taking on former President Donald Trump's appointees while she was a U.S. senator, according to a person with direct knowledge of the matter.

Any discussions of what Harris might need to win a convention fight for the nomination was unthinkable for Democrats before Thursday's debate, when Biden struggled to make the case for his reelection and failed to push back on Trump. "To be clear, Vice President Harris is a badass. A ticket with her at the top, combined with someone who balances her brand weaknesses , would absolutely be competitive with the criminally insane convicted felon the other side is committed to nominating," wrote Mehlhorn. "We would lose Joe's superpower brand, but we would gain other benefits and would still be competitive."

The event was at real estate executive's Susan Lowenberg's home, and the crowd included past Harris donors from her days running for San Francisco District Attorney, according to the pool report.
