*THIS IS AN OPINION PIECE. THIS DOES NOT RELAY ANY INFORMATION WHATSOEVER.*
Yesterday, President Biden announced that he would be dropping out of the 2024 presidential election. He endorsed his running mate, Vice President Kamala Harris. While Harris isn't a bad candidate, I doubt she'll actually beat Trump. I don't support Trump, but basically, what Biden did yesterday pretty much handed the 2024 election to Trump. Besides that, here are the reasons I think Kamala Harris doesn't stand a chance against Trump.
1. SHE'S A WOMAN
I'm not sexist, but I don't think Americans are gonna be on board with the idea of a female president. Hillary Clinton didn't do so well in 2016 because of this. The Electoral College has never been on board with this idea, and neither has most of America for that matter.
2. TRUMP COULD USE HER SHORTCOMINGS AS VICE PRESIDENT AGAINST HER
She wasn't bad as VP, but she had her shortcomings. Take a look at the vice presidency section of her Wikipedia page. There are quite a few things in here that Trump could use against her to get the upper hand in the election. And that's bad for her 2024 campaign.
3. SHE WAS THROWN INTO THIS WHOLE MESS BY BIDEN
Biden dropped out of the race at the last minute, and Harris is pretty much on her own in terms of the election. There's not much she can do at the moment to bolster her 2024 campaign. I know that there's strong support from fellow Democrats, but again, she was thrown into this at the last minute, which means she's gonna struggle in her battle for the White House.
