Rachel Maddow reviews the state of the 2024 presidential race and how the switch at the top of the Democratic ticket from Joe Biden to Kamala Harris has changed everything about the race.
This is an adapted excerpt from a July 21 special episode of “The Rachel Maddow Show.” Three and a half years into his presidency, Joe Biden made American history with an act of profound political and personal sacrifice: stepping down from his re-election bid in favor of his vice president, Kamala Harris. In the instant Biden announced that news, at 1:46 p.m. on a Sunday, everything changed.
Biden, perhaps cannily, waited until the supremely self-confident Republican side locked in their ticket. He waited to announce his plans until Trump picked a running mate whom most Americans do not know, and who — they are discovering — is deeply committed to a nationwide ban on abortion. Trump’s remarkable recent run of political good luck has finally come to an end. He is now the old man in the presidential race.
