Hollywood pressures Biden to fire Harris, reports the media
March 13, 2023Tweet
A group of actors and other Hollywood political donors has reportedly argued that President Joe Biden needs to jettison Kamala Harris as his vice president when he runs for re-election in 2024. According to CNN, the donors asked Boxer how they could persuade Biden to replace Harris, and Boxer replied that it was the president's choice. Nearly seven in ten US voters believe Biden, 80, is too old to seek re-election, according to a Yahoo News/YouGov poll released earlier this month. Among Democrats, 48% of voters believe Biden would be too old, versus only 34% who disagreed. Given that the VP would be next in line for the presidency if Biden weren't able to serve his full term, his running mate would attract greater scrutiny. Even Democratic Party leaders have shown some reluctance to endorse keeping Harris on the ticket in 2024.
