Could Kamala Harris beat Donald Trump in the race to be US president? | BBC Americast

In one single day, since Joe Biden announced he was stepping down as the Democrat’s nominee, Vice President Kamala Harris has raised over $150 million for her presidential campaign.

She has also gained the endorsements of a large number of Democrats, including Nancy Pelosi and the Clintons.

But how realistic are her chances of winning against Donald Trump and how should the Democrats be shaping her campaign?

That amount is wrong, it was $81 million dollars in 24 hours and it was at $134 million last night before I went to sleep.

I love living in a “democracy” where ultra-wealthy donors decide what candidates we get to choose from. Not dystopian at all.

Trump was going to beat one person in November.
Now he's just going to beat someone different.
A win for trump either way.

The contest has become ... interesting!

She is the most qualified to do this job.. shes smart, she smiles, she laughs, shes is a former prosecutor who will nail Trump to the wall in a debate, ,

Being endorse and winning are two different things

Kamala's smile is beautiful like a rainbow that brings hope of better days, her wisdom humbles the ignorant and shows the path that a nation should take. She is confident like a lioness who is not afraid of a challenge.
She carries the truth to destroy the lies strongly entrenched by the enemy.

I like this programme style. If the talkers can talking speed a bit slower is much better.

Those donations tell quite the tale for Convict45's hopes.

It's shocking but true
that no woman has ever made it even to the 7-member Chinese 🇨🇳 Standing Committee since its creation 70 years ago.

Unity and excitement is hoped for, but cannot be planned for
