Bold strategy, Cotton! Joe Biden's campaign advisers must not think he can beat Trump on his own if THIS is true

Democrats are so wrapped up in playing identity politics that they’re reportedly debating the idea of ‘packaging’ Biden’s campaign announcement with a pledge to choose Stacey Abrams as his vp.

You know, the woman who lost in Georgia and claimed the GOP cheated?

Bold strategy, Cotton. *eye roll*

SCOOP: Close advisers to former Vice President Joe Biden are debating the idea of packaging his presidential campaign announcement with a pledge to choose Stacey Abrams as his vice president. https://t.co/6OHTUKIlTs

From Axios:

Close advisers to former Vice President Joe Biden are debating the idea of packaging his presidential campaign announcement with a pledge to choose Stacey Abrams as his vice president.

Why it matters: The popular Georgia Democrat, who at age 45 is 31 years younger than Biden, would bring diversity and excitement to the ticket — showing voters, in the words of a close source, that Biden “isn’t just another old white guy.”

But the decision poses considerable risk, and some advisers are flatly opposed. Some have pointed out that in a Democratic debate, he could be asked why no one on the stage would be a worthy running mate.
Advisers also know that the move would be perceived as a gimmick.

Because it IS A GIMMICK.

If this is real… It really should dismiss Biden as a serious candidate.

Abrams has literally zero useful national experience. Heck… One could argue she has LESS THAN TRUMP (though I admit 100% that is debatable, but still…)

Are Democrats really this dumb? https://t.co/iqTMQiut7A

Yes, yes they are.

But you knew that.

Biden is old, but he is a strong enough candidate on his own. Why do they think they need to play games?

His advisors suggesting this are idiots.

If you’re wondering how the Left is reacting to this scoop …

i knew Joe Biden would mess up his announcement. Make way for President Beto.

This but swap Abrams to the top billing and drop Biden

HA HA HA HA HA HA HA.

Oh, they’re serious.

Yikes.

It’s not picking Abrams that’s a problem. She’s great and would make a fine VP. The problem is that he’s picking anyone at all at this early stage.

Been there, done that.

I'm so old I remember when @theDemocrats called refusing to concede an election was a threat to democracy.
