Ex-fundraiser: Harris courted Biden donors days before his exit

A former Democratic fundraiser, Lindy Li, claims Kamala Harris hosted donor calls and told top Biden backers there was no daylight between Biden and Harris while allegedly auditioning for their support, effectively courting donors to back her if Biden dropped out. Li says it was a calculated move to position Harris for a future bid, with donors reportedly skeptical of her stance; Biden announced he would withdraw in July 2024, and Harris swiftly moved to shore up support, a portrayal Harris’s team did not comment on.
