The American vice president has only two important constitutional roles: to break tie votes in the Senate, and to sit on presidential death watch. This latter task will be more important under a second Biden presidency than it has been at any time since FDR’s fourth term. Should Biden be re-elected, there is a one in three chance of his vice president taking his job before January 2029. And roughly half the electorate thinks that Harris is not up to the demands of that job.
if trump has taught us anything, its that any idiot can technically function as president. i dont see harris being some terrible temporary president. i see a lot of racists kinda freakin out at the possibility though.
‘i dont know why i dont like her. shes just not ready’
ha, whatevs. we dont need a rockstar, we need a placeholder… and we got it.
I’d be interested in Buttigieg, but I’m also not sure how much experience he has in brokering deals.
Also, replacing Harris with Pete is going to affect the number of votes from the Black community, most likely. Additionally, in a year where reproductive rights are going to be a huge topic of conversation, replacing a female running mate seems short sighted. Even my conservative mother in law is fired up over the need to protect abortion rights.

And yet no other name was put forward as an alternative.

I would not be interested in him. Buttigieg is a McKinsey shill. I highly recommend you watch John Oliver’s segment on McKinsey. It’s on YouTube.
I do agree with your second line though.
If Biden was considering replacing Harris, Pete would already be thanking him for the nomination.
