Kamala Harris Ex-Comms Director Argues Why President Biden Should Step Down

Jamal Simmons believes it would forge an easier path for the next woman who tries to become president.

Kamala Harris’ former communications director, Jamal Simmons, thinks Joe Biden should step down to appoint Harris as the 47th president.

According to Politico, Simmons made his case on CNN’s State Of The Union on Nov. 10. Noting Biden’s labeling as a “transitional figure,” Simmons argued how he could further establish this by relinquishing power to Harris in his final months as president.

“Joe Biden has been a phenomenal president. He’s lived up to so many of the promises that he’s made. There is one promise left that he can fulfill: Being a transitional figure,” Simmons said on the news commentary program.

If Biden follows Simmons’ suggestion, Harris would become America’s first woman president. Donald Trump won the presidential election on Nov. 6, eventually winning all of the battleground states.

“He could resign the presidency in the next 30 days, make Kamala Harris the president of the United States,” Simmons said. “He could absolve her from having to oversee the January 6 transition of her own defeat.”

Harris has not publicly or reportedly said she wants this to occur.

“It would dominate the news at a point where Democrats have to learn drama and transparency and doing things in the public we want to see,” Simmons said. This is the moment for us to change the perspective of how Democrats operate.”

The Trailblazer podcaster doubled down on his sentiments on social media. He urged that it would forge an easier path for the next woman who tries to become president.


“It’d turn tables on Trump, keep Kamala from presiding over Jan. 6, make it easier for next woman to run,” he wrote.
