Vice President Kamala Harris She met briefly yesterday with major Democratic donors to show her support for the vice presidential candidate.
Harris met with about 300 major Democratic donors on Friday and said President Biden’s campaign has nothing to worry about, despite the media frenzy.
“First, I want to tell you something that I believe in the depths of my heart, something that I feel compelled all of you to hear, take with you when you go home, tell your friends: We are going to win this election. We are going to win,” Harris told donors, according to multiple reports.
The election committee chairs said Biden was “more committed than ever” to the presidential election and that they were “seeking input.”

“We know who the candidate is who will put the American people first in this election: President Joe Biden,” Harris said in support of her running mate.
Harris spoke to donors via video for about five minutes, defending the Biden administration and Former President Donald Trump Speech at the Republican National Convention.
“Let me be clear: Trump’s convention this week was a huge attempt to distract people,” Harris reportedly told donors. “He wants to distract people from his record and his Project 2025 plan. Can you believe they documented it? This is further empirical evidence that the stakes in this election couldn’t be higher.”

The call was aimed at easing concerns among party donors that backlash against Biden from within the party could deal a devastating blow to his campaign.
But Harris did not take questions from donors after her brief speech, leaving some to question what the purpose of her remarks was.
Moreover, the call came on the same day that nearly a dozen Democratic lawmakers said they wanted Biden to withdraw from the election.

Biden has consistently made clear his intention to remain in the race and face Trump as the Democratic nominee in November.
While critics of the administration within the Democratic Party consider Biden’s re-election bid to be undecided, the White House has consistently been adamant that he will indeed run.
“The president is in this race,” campaign chair Jen O’Malley Dillon told hosts of MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” on Friday morning. “You’ve heard the president say that many times.”
