📢 Great discussion with David @davidpakman.bsky.social and Jonathan @jonallendc.bsky.social..
The most shilling but also telling quotes here were "Harris was handcuffed by Biden" and "People were gaslighted by the DNC"

Both Allen's and Pakman's book would be a good read for anyone!

Very important observation by @jonallendc.bsky.social : this book should serve as a guide to Dem VOTERS about 'what they should be looking for in their candidates, in the people running the campaigns and what they need to demand of them'
Did Kamala ever stand a chance? @michaelsteele.bsky.social speaks w/ @jonallendc.bsky.social & Amie Parnes about the one Trump ad that sunk Kamala’s chances, Biden’s refusal to endorse her, and private efforts by Obama and Pelosi to oust Biden. #2024

Really fascinating from @jonallendc.bsky.social and Amie Parnes in “Fight”

— Obama wanted a Whitmer-Moore ticket
— Whitmer called Harris directly to say she wouldn’t run under any circumstances as whispers grew
— 2020 VP selection process left a bad taste in Whitmer’s mouth
