In reply to the discussion: Why Biden's White House Press Secretary Is Leaving the Democratic Party [View all]fujiyamasan
(821 posts)38. Meh, sorry Karine you're not really all that relevant
        I dont begrudge her for wanting to make a buck, although the farther away we get from the election, fewer people are going to buy it. I think peak season was when Tappers book came out. Now no one cares. Shes just beating a dead horse. Less than one year 
 into the madmans reign, it has already felt like an eternity.
And no, democrats didnt stab Biden in the back. Congressional reps and senators were simply listening to their constituents who had made it clear they didnt want another term. Polls were also showing Biden would lose and would possibly drag democrats down ballot. 
Maybe she should have taken those concerns directly to Biden.

        yeah, I'm done with this conversation. But I'm sure the usual MSM outlets will gobble it up and give her air time

        But she did not have the need to write that book that only creates negative sentiment against the Democratic party.

        No she did not. This continued claiming she did is a direct attack on the Biden administration, the Dem Party, & Harris.

        Kamala Harris's book "107 Days" outsold the Tapper/Thompson book in the first week.

        Yup, I'm with her, and the camera angle used on Joe during the debate was deliberate.

        Imagine if Democrats went after Republicans with the zeal that they went after Joe Biden.
