U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris recently took to her Twitter account and posted about President Joe Biden. Dropping a picture with him, Harris wrote:
“As Vice President, I see @JoeBiden when the cameras are on and when the cameras are off—in the Oval Office, in the Situation Room, and on the campaign trail.
Joe Biden is a leader who fights for the American people.”

Harris recently pressed the case for the re-election of President Joe Biden at a fundraiser in Massachusetts on Saturday despite continued pressure from fellow Democrats and big-money donors seeking an end to his bruised campaign.
“We are going to win this election,” Harris said.
“It’s not going to be easy but we are a group of people that understand anything worthwhile takes hard work.”
It has been noted that while she alluded to the turmoil that has consumed Biden’s candidacy since a poor debate performance last month, Harris did not refer to calls for Biden to drop out of the 2024 race.
The fundraiser drew 1,000 people and raised more than $2 million, according to its host, celebrity wedding planner Bryan Rafanelli. Celebrities and singers including Jennifer Coolidge, Billy Porter and Darren Criss were set to attend.
Biden and top aides on Friday has vowed to continue with his presidential campaign against Republican candidate Trump, even as major donors signaled they were unwilling to open their checkbooks unless the 81-year-old president steps aside.
The crisis of confidence in Biden’s ability to win the Nov. 5 election has placed a huge spotlight on Harris, widely believed to be the most likely replacement if he steps down.
Harris fundraising events have been getting added interest from donors who want to signal they are willing to coalesce around her potential bid for the White House, according to three Democratic fundraisers.
