Can Kamala Harris Win? The Obstacles Facing Her Candidacy
About this episode
President Joe Biden announced Sunday he’s no longer seeking the Democratic Party’s nomination, saying his exit from the race was in the best interests of his party and the country. He then threw his support to his running mate, Vice President Kamala Harris. But is it as simple as that? Will Harris receive her party's nomination? Is she the best person the Democrat's have to take on Donald Trump? And does the market's mild response to the news suggest many think a Donald Trump victory is still the most likely outcome?
Hosts Stephanie Flanders and Adrian Wooldridge explore those questions. Plus, we bring you an episode from our sister show the Big Take -- Gregory Korte and Laura Davison, who cover money and politics for Bloomberg, discuss Kamala Harris’s fundraising edge and how Democratic donors are reacting to the news.
