Nothing would irk Trump more than getting beat by a black woman.

I don't care if it pisses him off. I just want him to lose.
Man. What a sweet thought. He’d probably have an aneurism.
Its probably already on the way. Its just a hilarious reality plot already thickening

Progressives should vote for her just to spite Hillary. Lol
He could drop out of the race now, so he can avoid that possibility.
TBH statements like this are hurting her odds more than helping. Everybody on board already knows those things about her, nothing about her policies.
I think its less about changing the odds, and more about giving a needed morale boost to two minority groups long oppressed by politics in general.
You should probably be worried about our odds at this point in the game. We can celebrate her traits when she's in.

American people are notoriously uninterested in policy when it comes to presidents in the general election. they elected W (with a minority) because they felt they could have a beer with him. they elected Obama for change, him being smart, a good orator, relatively young and black was a huge contrast to everything W was. they elected TFG (with a minority) because they thought he was an outsider. they elected Biden because he wasn't TFG.
but yes they should promote Harris' policies more because they aren't bad.
Honestly more amped up more than ever that there’s a nominee under 60. God bless Biden for everything. That old turd Trump should realize he’s too old and drop out too.

Will she earn votes? Gonna have to do some work.
Someone asked me what I thought about Biden dropping out. I said, it doesn't matter. I am over policy, specifically NOT horrible policies like Project 2025.
So... like... what policies do you support?
I would love to have her lead the country!
Does she support Netanyahu as unconditionally as Biden? I’ll vote for her anyway, but it would be nice if she actually took a stand against genocide. I’m probably asking too much, though.
She’s a cop. ACAB. Didn’t like her when I voted for Biden the first time, don’t like her now.
But she isn’t Trump, and that’s enough for now.
As it turns out, no:

This is the best summary I could come up with:
WASHINGTON (AP) — She’s already broken barriers, and now Kamala Harris could shatter several more after President Joe Biden abruptly ended his reelection bid and endorsed her.
A recent poll from the AP-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research found that about 6 in 10 Democrats believe Harris would do a good job in the top slot.
She spoke often about attending demonstrations in a stroller and growing up around adults “who spent full time marching and shouting about this thing called justice.” In first grade, she was bused to school as part of the second class to integrate Berkeley public education.
After graduating, Harris returned to the San Francisco Bay Area for law school and chose a career as a prosecutor, a move that surprised her activist family.
Months into her tenure, Harris declined to seek the death penalty for the killer of a young police officer slain in the line of duty, fraying her relationship with city cops.
In one memorable moment, she pressed now-Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh on whether he knew any laws that gave government the power to regulate a man’s body.
