After months of speculation, Kamala Harris, the 55-year-old junior senator from California, is Joe Biden’s pick for vice president.
This is the moment the Trump campaign has been waiting for. In recent months, it has compiled dossiers on everyone Biden was considering. Now get ready for a ton of opposition research — “oppo” — to be dropped onto the media in an effort to undermine Harris. But there are two key differences: First, there are a lot more women in America. They are 54% of the electorate, an eight-point advantage. Second, in proportional terms, a bigger percentage of that 54% turns out to vote than of the smaller 46% of men. So in both absolute and relative terms, this is a double advantage for Democrats.
Much to the detriment of Republicans, this gap is accelerating. Women preferred Barack Obama over Mitt Romney by 11 percentage points in 2012. In 2016, Hillary Clinton beat Donald Trump by 13 points , and, in the 2018 midterms, women backed Democratic congressional candidates by a stunning 19 percentage points . That’s why Nancy Pelosi, and not California Republican Kevin McCarthy, is speaker of the house, and it’s why Trump was impeached earlier this year.
“Biden lays a trap for Trump in picking Harris.” Sounds very “affirmative” of Joe.
Have you noticed new TV commercials actors are black and mixed race couples and children and just few white actors (playing dumb) is the new trend? The company owners are still white. Only 'Perception On-demand' changed to make idiots 'Believe'. That IS what democrats are doing.
It’s not a trap. It’s finessing the talent pool that you have. She has a huge job in overcoming the huge bias that Americans have against women in powerful places. Many women are guilty of that sentiment. Getting over it will help to heal this badly wounded country IF THEY VOTE.
Laid a trap for himself. Kiss the independents and moderates goodby.
Does anyone have a suggestion for a real market Twitter? MarketWatch are mentally ill

It's not a trap. He said he wanted a female VP so he wouldn't have to pick Sanders who was the obvious choice. Also you grossly underestimate how little I care about Trump being a dick to Kamala.

Kamala is DISCARDED JUNK: Black democrats already rejected her in the primaries where she barely got 2% of the vote.
Kamala - Obama without his charm. Empty pant suit.
A trap for Trump? Interesting characterization. Poor Trump is being tricked into revealing his woman hating racist self. MW needs new headline writers.
