The former president has always considered himself to be the ultimate disrupter. But this time, the disruption is on the other side.

Through the weekend, there were an awful lot of questions that were going back and forth from people in the presidentā€™s tightest circle, and one of the questions that kept being asked was whetherĀ Joe BidenĀ was going to endorseĀ Kamala HarrisĀ or not. And the question didnā€™t revolve around whetherĀ heĀ wanted to or not, but whether people in her camp thought it would be better for her to fight for it, win it on her own, and not be seen as somebody who was tapped by President Biden and so, in her own way, have a fresh startĀ going into the campaign.

So the timing seems to be about as good as it could have been to end what has just been one of the craziest two or three weeks in American politics in quite some time.

    What is this bizzaro world? Who is being paid to write these crap articles?

    Nominating Kamala is the best way to guarantee a Trump presidency. Itā€™s like yaā€™ll learned nothing from hillary clinton.

      I doubt that, 2016 people were blissfully unaware how much a crooked president can break America, now they have a first hand experience.
