“It would fulfill his last promise,” her former communications director said.
President Joe Biden should step down as president in his final weeks in office to make Vice President Kamala Harris the 47th president — and first female president — of the U.S., Harris’ former communications director Jamal Simmons argued Sunday.
“Joe Biden has been a phenomenal president, he’s lived up to so many of the promises that he’s made. There is one promise left that he can fulfill: Being a transitional figure,” Simmons said on CNN’s “State of the Union” as a panelist.
“He could resign the presidency in the next 30 days, make Kamala Harris the president of the United States. He could absolve her from having to oversee the January 6 transition of her own defeat.”
