Jill Bidens memoarer berättar om Harris begäran om snabbt stöd

Ett nytt utdrag ur Jill Bidens kommande memoarer beskriver ett spänt samtal den 21 juli 2024, då Kamala Harris tryckte på för ett omedelbart stöd efter att Joe Biden beslutat att avsluta sin omvalskampanj.

Enligt memoarerna "View from the East Wing" informerade Biden Harris om sitt beslut den dagen. Harris svarade: "Herregud, Joe. Är du säker?" Biden föreslog att man skulle vänta till nästa morgon med att göra stödet officiellt. Harris svarade att hon ville ha det tidigare och frågade om det kunde ske inom 20 minuter, står det i utdraget. Jill Biden lämnade därefter rummet, tillägger berättelsen.
