This comes as reports are circulating that there is rising tension in the White House between President Joe Biden and Harris as the 2024 presidential election cycle looms.

Biden, 80, is definitely showing signs of his age and that is a problem that more Democratic voters are considering as he runs for re-election.

It appears that much of their concern is that, in case he becomes incapacitated and can no longer serve or worse, should he pass away while in office, that would mean Vice President Kamala Harris becomes president — and that’s not something most Americans in either party want to see.

According to a new survey, she is so unpopular that she is seen now harming Biden’s reelection chances.

The Washington Examiner reports:

When Rasmussen Reports asked likely voters, “Is she doing a better job or worse job than most previous vice presidents?” her poor showing demonstrated why some Democrats and liberal media outlets are urging Biden to replace her on his reelection ticket.

According to the new survey shared with Secrets Wednesday, 50% said she is worse than most previous vice presidents, 22% said “better,” and 24% saw no difference.

The contrast might hold significance for Biden’s potential re-election bid.

Rasmussen conducted the survey to gauge whether the former California senator’s influence is beneficial or detrimental to his prospects, and the results indicate that by a margin of 33 percent to 22 percent, voters perceive her impact as more negative than positive. Importantly, and potentially more damaging to her image, 41 percent of respondents expressed the view that Harris had no discernible impact whatsoever.

Earlier this week, George Skelton, a longtime political columnist for the Los Angeles Times, wrote that Biden should replace Harris now so she can return to California and take lame-duck Sen. Dianne Feinstein’s seat.

“Biden’s problem is Harris. She’s a burden — a drag on his reelection prospects,” he wrote.

“A reader emailed me with the remedy: Feinstein could resign from the Senate and Gov. Gavin Newsom could appoint Harris to replace her. Biden then could find a more popular running mate, one more acceptable to voters as a potential successor,” Skelton added.

It’s not the first time the suggestion has been made.
