I wish I had more faith in Harris to defend herself from Trump’s attacks.

This is the best summary I could come up with:

“The reason for turning the volume up on boosting Kamala now is that Democrats cannot afford to stay still in this campaign moment as all of the actors on the Hill are in internal conversations,” Way to Win’s president, Tory Gavito, said in an interview Wednesday.

There were separate polls in the field on Wednesday testing Harris’s potential negatives, according to a Democrat familiar with the effort.

Those most enthusiastic about Harris taking over the top of the ticket have been quiet so far, as signals have gone out from her expanded team that she is standing fully behind Biden, who ultimately has the ability to decide whether he stays in the race.

“The reality is she is already coming under attack from Republicans even without a change in the ticket being at all imminent,” said one Democrat sympathetic to Harris, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to speak frankly.

The Republican National Committee has been filling its social media channels with video montages of Harris repeating the same rhetoric at different speeches or laughing awkwardly.

“We are going to give her all of Biden’s negatives and she doesn’t have any of his positives of being independent,” this person said, speaking on the condition of anonymity to discuss internal strategy.
