Democratic National Committee Chairman Jaime Harrison appeared on the Today Show on Tuesday and insisted that the process for nominating Kamala Harris as the official Democratic nominee will be quick but completely fair and transparent.
That will likely come as news to the millions of Democrats who voted for Joe Biden in the Democratic primary.
The process of putting Kamala at the top of the list seemed to take place in a dark, smoky backroom filled with Democratic Party tycoons and big donors. It was anything but grassroots.
Fox News Report:
Democratic National Committee Chairman Jaime Harrison was pressed on Tuesday by Democrats about whether President Biden was “threatened out of office” following his decision to withdraw from the 2024 presidential race.
“Mr. President, we owe him a tremendous debt of gratitude. He’s a good man. He’s an honorable man. He’s been a transformative president. But what he’s shown by dropping out of this race is that he’s selfless,” Harrison told NBC’s “Today” co-host Craig Melvin.
Harrison also spoke about the process at the Democratic National Convention and outlined his plans to nominate Harris.
“The process will be fair, transparent and open, but it will be done quickly. And we’ve designed it so that candidates can actually meet the standards and requirements that are necessary to appear on the ballot in all 50 states. And in Ohio, in order to appear on the ballot, you have to have not only a presidential candidate but also a vice presidential candidate. So that decision will be up to the ultimate candidates. But we’ve designed this process so that they have enough time to choose who their nominee is going to be,” Harrison said.

Democrats are gaslighting the American people over Harris’ decision just as they did over Biden’s mental health. All that has changed is that her name is now at the top of the shortlist.
