Some people are starting to wonder if President Joe Biden is purposefully throwing Vice President Kamala Harris under the bus because he is resentful of her replacing him on the Democrat presidential ticket.
The speculation began weeks ago when the president said that she was with him every step of the way and involved in policy decisions just as she began to start distancing herself from his unpopular policies.
And on Friday he did something that some people believed was even more blatant.
The vice president took the stage at a Michigan rally at 2:04 PM EST for a state that is a very important piece of her electoral puzzle and one that many experts believe is a “must win” if she has any chance of attaining the presidency.
The major news networks were covering her speech live when, a mere two minutes later, President Biden took to the White House briefing room for a press conference.
The networks quickly cut away from the vice president to cover the president’s first press conference in the briefing room since becoming president in 2020.
The president was there to speak about the ongoing relief efforts after the catastrophic Hurricane Helene as well as the ongoing tensions in the Middle East and the postponed port workers strike.
During the final question of the briefing, the president took a question from Washington Post reporter Toluse Olorunnipa and in his answer, he, again, tied the vice president to himself.
