Allies of Joe Biden will leak unflattering, “Palinesque” stories about Kamala Harris’ tenure as vice president if she discusses his cognitive decline, according to a journalist.
Mark Halperin, a veteran political reporter who founded the digital news network 2WAY, broke the news during the Friday episode of his show The Morning Meeting.
“I will tell you, and this has never been reported, barely at all,” he began. “If the Biden people decide that Kamala is coming after Joe Biden, wait till you hear the Palinesque stories about how much they tried to help her be prepared to be vice president and be in a position to run. And how much they decided, ‘Not happening. She’s not up to this.’”
Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin was late Sen. John McCain’s running mate during his bid for the presidency in 2008.
