...watch the rerun, or seek it out when it goes online. It's one of the best answers to Joe Biden stepping aside I've come across so far.

3. I agree. He debunks and clarifies a lot regarding the magical Gavin Newsom takeover fantasy

and also the "kick Kamala Harris off the ticket" fantasy.

First, he talked about how Biden-Harris' fundraising has outpaced trump and the RNC at every turn. All the naysayers seem to be ignorant of that fact.

Second, Newsom, if anointed in a contested convention, would walk away with nothing. Zero. Nada--- as far as cash goes. Based on California laws, he can't use his gubernatorial fundraising for a presidential campaign and he wouldn't have access to all the funds raised by Biden-Harris.

Third, booting Kamala Harris wouldn't work either, because she's entitled to half of all the funds raised.

He said a lot more but those three points were huge.
