Biden

At the start of this year the democratic party led by President Biden planned to win reelection and then sometime after two years Biden would resign for health reasons and Harris would take over and be able to finish off his term and then be eligible for two full four year terms. This would give the team an opportunity to balance the court since Thomas and Alito are 75 and 73 respectively. This plan ran into trouble as polls showed that Trump was going to beat Biden. Biden said many times that he was the only one who could beat Trump and that he was in it to win it. When the polls turned against him and it started to effect the down ballot candidates the people in close races began to bolt. This was followed by the big donors balking and then the power elite started leaking damaging stories. Biden changed his mind and decided to drop out and turn things over to Harris but interestingly enough he did not resign and let her be president. Harris will now have a honeymoon for the next month and then the serious campaign will start after Labor Day. Each candidate claims he/she has the best record to run on and the public will decide which is the way it is supposed to work. Regardless of which person wins the country will continue along like it has for the past 250 years.
