SHADE WAR: Joe Biden to skip Kamala's watch party and chill in the White House, just 2 miles away

The shade war is reportedly heating up as President Joe Biden veers headlong into his final months in the White House and likely an end to his long life of public service. And tonight, on Election Night, it's been reported that he will not be attending the watch party of his vice president, the woman to whom he ceded his place at the top of the ticket, former California prosecutor Kamala Harris.

That party, slated for the campus of Harris' alma mater Howard University, will either see the Democrats' hopes for another White House term dashed or their bloodless coup of Biden justified if Harris wins. Tonight is not only a test of Harris' campaign, but of the Democrats' wild, last-minute play to drastically upset the race, install a new candidate, and still install their Party machine in the seats of national power.

Harris and her campaign keep saying they are ready to "turn the page," and though the man they claim to want to turn from is Trump, Biden is the one who they are actually turning away from. Biden is the man who is currently in office. When asked how she is different from Biden, Harris said that she's a woman.

"Tonight," an official told the Washington Examiner, "the president and First Lady will watch election results in the White House with longtime aides and senior White House staff." The statement went on to say that "the president will receive regular updates on the state of races across the country." The White House is just two miles from Howard.

It should have been Biden's watch party. If it weren't for a bad debate against Trump in June and a concerted effort by his long-time colleagues, members of his political party, Hollywood celebrities, his former boss Barack Obama, and people he undoubtedly called friends, it would have been.

On June 27, Biden garbled his words and spoke unintelligible nonsense on the debate stage against Trump on CNN. The two men were asked about policy, promises, plans, and their records, only for Biden to take stabs at Trump, miss, and fall on his own face.

By the end of the night, Biden's proverbial face was proverbially bloodied. The next day, rumbles of a coup began in earnest. Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, who is actually older than Biden, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, and even Hollywood A-lister George Clooney, dogpiled Biden until he resigned.

He resigned just a few days after the RNC came to a close in July, eight days from when Thomas Matthew Crooks took aim on Trump's life in Butler, PA, and before a successor had been named or vetted.

There was only one person who could jump in at that point in the election and still be able to keep Biden's well-earned campaign war chest and it was someone who was already on the ticket, and that was Kamala Harris. He endorsed her hours later in a social media post, and despite his being the elder statesman, her campaign has sidelined him reportedly over fears he'll keep saying the stupid things he keeps saying.

Their time in office together has at times been contentious, according to insider source reports that have drifted out since Inauguration Day 2021. In March of that year, Biden tasked Harris with border security and uncovering the root causes of migration. After a few phone calls and a meeting with the president of Guatemala, she decided she was finished, that among the root causes of migration was LGBTQ intolerance, and moved on. After that, she seemed pretty much focused on electric school buses and abortion.

Harris came on Biden's presidential ticket in 2020 after running for the top spot herself and getting only 3% of the vote. She then wound up on a short list of black women Biden would consider for the VP spot, having promised to deliver a person of that sex and race in that position. He brought in a Supreme Court justice based on those required qualifications as well.
