They did this to pull support from Sanders and his wing after he became the frontrunner in the primary by running on these ideas. It'll turn out as an implementation advertised as "progressive" but in fact so compromised that it's completely counterproductive and pleasing to absolutely no one. This is the Democratic way.
Good point but there's a progressive waiting in the wings who didn't poll 2% in the primaries. If they truly want to avoid the far Left they'll keep Biden and not bring in Harris. If she replaces Biden and Dems take the Georgia runoffs we'll see if the Dems are the party of Wall Street or are pushing something more extreme. We'll have a better idea who's talking out of their ass at that point.

First off Biden is the president, they can't get rid of Biden and just bring in Harris, let me guess, you subscribe to the insane conspiracy theory that democrats are going to kill Biden early in his term, so Harris can get in there.
Plus, Harris is not radical or far left. Like this kind of stuff is just nonsense. One poster put a link to her "radical" far left bills she sponsored in the Senate, and I posted parts of the first five of those bills word for word and asked that poster to tell me what's radical about the five I posted and the response was giving renters a tax credit and legalizing marijuana.

They have two ways to go. They can 25th Amendment him as mentally incapacitated or the much easier way of threatening impeachment over his son's business dealings that smack of influence peddling. If you're going to say that's a conspiracy theory then you haven't been paying attention. If you don't think she's far Left fine, I hope you're right.

Insane conspiracy theories is the way republicans choose to see the world It is a sight to behold. It is not a matter thinking she is or isn't far left. What are her far left policies?

The Left has had a special hatred for Kamala since the beginning and it's been more than reciprocal.
Who is the left in your estimation? I don't really think we have a left in any real since. Is it Bernie? Is it Elizabeth Warren? Do either of them hate Harris? Or by left do you mean various pundits? Who can have all sorts of reasons for hating Harris? Or do you mean the DSA?

The Left is Socialists and Anarchists, and yes, they're irrelevant. The answer to all of your other questions is basically "no" lol

She is a sitting US senator, that carries political power. In order to win her race she had to run on policies. Since she has been in the Senate she has sponsored bills. I have yet to see a far left position.
She has gotten 4 bills passed. She couldn't get 2% support in the primaries. She didn't win anything, she rode in on Biden's coattails. And there are groups that rate all Congressmen and she's one of the most left of center in her voting.

I see an endless cycle coming- Biden #46, Harris #47 then HRC becoming VP, then Harris steps aside for HRC to become #48 and Harris being "picked " as VP.
