Five of the six vice presidential prospects who have met with Harris’ team in recent days cultivated their state and national profiles by being prominent figures in the MAGA “resistance” — whether it was clashing with Trump as governor or state prosecutor, defeating his protégés in important races or pitching a new kind of politics in response to his rise.
Poll results announced earlier Sunday showed former President Donald Trump and Harris, who are expected to oppose each other in the November election, are tied in key battleground states.
Biden also endorsed Harris the day he withdrew from the race and she is now the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee who will likely go up against Trump, the GOP presidential nominee, in November.
Trump and Biden had agreed to a second debate on September 10 on ABC News, which the former president had suggested should be moved to Fox, the most popular network with his followers.
