It’s Thursday, and this is your politics tip sheet.

Yesterday, [Harris provided a glimpse](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRhF6JSP0T5aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyMC8wOC8xMi91cy9wb2xpdGljcy9iaWRlbi1oYXJyaXMtZGVsYXdhcmUtYXBwZWFyYW5jZS5odG1sP2NhbXBhaWduX2lkPTU2JmVtYz1lZGl0X2NuXzIwMjAwODEzJmluc3RhbmNlX2lkPTIxMjMwJm5sPW9uLXBvbGl0aWNzLXdpdGgtbGlzYS1sZXJlciZyZWdpX2lkPTc3Njc0OTUyJnNlZ21lbnRfaWQ9MzU5OTUmdGU9MSZ1c2VyX2lkPWFhNDkxZWY3ZjFkOTY0ZTQ5NzlmYjc4NGU3NGUwMWQ3VwNueXRCCgBDUh01X3sd8ltSG3RyaXN0cmFtYmFsZHdpbjkwQGdtYWlsLmNvbVgEAAAAAA~~) of how she’ll take on both tasks. She praised Biden’s character, speaking in emotional terms about him as a father through her friendship with his son Beau, who died in 2015. “I learned quickly that Beau was the kind of guy who inspired people to be a better version of themselves,” Harris said. “And when I would ask him: ‘Where did you get that? Where did this come from?’ — he would always talk about his dad.” - On the attack side of things, Harris, a former California attorney general, began her criticism with a line we’ll probably hear often: “The case against Donald Trump and Mike Pence is open and shut.” In a prosecutorial manner, she laid the failures and crises wrought by the coronavirus at the feet of the Trump administration. It is their fault, she said, that the United States has had one of the world’s worst outbreaks. It is the Trump administration, she argued, that is “the reason an American dies of Covid-19 every 80 seconds,” “why countless businesses have shut their doors,” and “Trump is the reason millions of Americans are unemployed.” - But the overarching message of the first Biden-Harris event, as my colleagues [Katie Glueck](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRhF6JSP0T5aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyMC8wOC8xMi91cy9wb2xpdGljcy9iaWRlbi1oYXJyaXMtZGVsYXdhcmUtYXBwZWFyYW5jZS5odG1sP2NhbXBhaWduX2lkPTU2JmVtYz1lZGl0X2NuXzIwMjAwODEzJmluc3RhbmNlX2lkPTIxMjMwJm5sPW9uLXBvbGl0aWNzLXdpdGgtbGlzYS1sZXJlciZyZWdpX2lkPTc3Njc0OTUyJnNlZ21lbnRfaWQ9MzU5OTUmdGU9MSZ1c2VyX2lkPWFhNDkxZWY3ZjFkOTY0ZTQ5NzlmYjc4NGU3NGUwMWQ3VwNueXRCCgBDUh01X3sd8ltSG3RyaXN0cmFtYmFsZHdpbjkwQGdtYWlsLmNvbVgEAAAAAA~~)[and](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRhF6JSP0T5aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyMC8wOC8xMi91cy9wb2xpdGljcy9iaWRlbi1oYXJyaXMtZGVsYXdhcmUtYXBwZWFyYW5jZS5odG1sP2NhbXBhaWduX2lkPTU2JmVtYz1lZGl0X2NuXzIwMjAwODEzJmluc3RhbmNlX2lkPTIxMjMwJm5sPW9uLXBvbGl0aWNzLXdpdGgtbGlzYS1sZXJlciZyZWdpX2lkPTc3Njc0OTUyJnNlZ21lbnRfaWQ9MzU5OTUmdGU9MSZ1c2VyX2lkPWFhNDkxZWY3ZjFkOTY0ZTQ5NzlmYjc4NGU3NGUwMWQ3VwNueXRCCgBDUh01X3sd8ltSG3RyaXN0cmFtYmFsZHdpbjkwQGdtYWlsLmNvbVgEAAAAAA~~)[Thomas Kaplan](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRhF6JSP0T5aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyMC8wOC8xMi91cy9wb2xpdGljcy9iaWRlbi1oYXJyaXMtZGVsYXdhcmUtYXBwZWFyYW5jZS5odG1sP2NhbXBhaWduX2lkPTU2JmVtYz1lZGl0X2NuXzIwMjAwODEzJmluc3RhbmNlX2lkPTIxMjMwJm5sPW9uLXBvbGl0aWNzLXdpdGgtbGlzYS1sZXJlciZyZWdpX2lkPTc3Njc0OTUyJnNlZ21lbnRfaWQ9MzU5OTUmdGU9MSZ1c2VyX2lkPWFhNDkxZWY3ZjFkOTY0ZTQ5NzlmYjc4NGU3NGUwMWQ3VwNueXRCCgBDUh01X3sd8ltSG3RyaXN0cmFtYmFsZHdpbjkwQGdtYWlsLmNvbVgEAAAAAA~~)[reported from Delaware](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRhF6JSP0T5aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyMC8wOC8xMi91cy9wb2xpdGljcy9iaWRlbi1oYXJyaXMtZGVsYXdhcmUtYXBwZWFyYW5jZS5odG1sP2NhbXBhaWduX2lkPTU2JmVtYz1lZGl0X2NuXzIwMjAwODEzJmluc3RhbmNlX2lkPTIxMjMwJm5sPW9uLXBvbGl0aWNzLXdpdGgtbGlzYS1sZXJlciZyZWdpX2lkPTc3Njc0OTUyJnNlZ21lbnRfaWQ9MzU5OTUmdGU9MSZ1c2VyX2lkPWFhNDkxZWY3ZjFkOTY0ZTQ5NzlmYjc4NGU3NGUwMWQ3VwNueXRCCgBDUh01X3sd8ltSG3RyaXN0cmFtYmFsZHdpbjkwQGdtYWlsLmNvbVgEAAAAAA~~), was a path forward, out of the pandemic and the ensuing economic collapse. And to do that, Harris declared, “we need a mandate that proves that the past few years do not represent who we are or who we aspire to be.” - It appears that some elements of Harris’s own presidential campaign will live on in her ticket with Biden. As the former vice president introduced her, he referred to her “3 a.m. agenda,” language she used to talk about the issues that wake American families up “in the middle of the night.” - The combination of their two platforms — both moderate in the eyes of progressives when compared with that of Senator Bernie Sanders — was expected to bring some criticism from the party’s left wing.

Late Tuesday, the Republican National Committee sent out an email to reporters with the subject line “liberals revolt against Biden, Harris ticket” featuring tweets from loud progressive voices on Twitter who expressed their disappointment with the selection. - Less than 24 hours later, the Trump campaign was painting Harris as one of those very progressive “liberals” who were “revolting” against her just the day before. Her selection, the Trump campaign said in a statement, “completes the radical, leftist takeover of Joe Biden and the entire Democrat Party.” - The dueling messages from the Trump campaign [mixed with a host of sexist and racist messages](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRhF6JSP0TyaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyMC8wOC8xMi91cy9wb2xpdGljcy9rYW1hbGEtaGFycmlzLWdvcC1hdHRhY2tzLmh0bWw_Y2FtcGFpZ25faWQ9NTYmZW1jPWVkaXRfY25fMjAyMDA4MTMmaW5zdGFuY2VfaWQ9MjEyMzAmbmw9b24tcG9saXRpY3Mtd2l0aC1saXNhLWxlcmVyJnJlZ2lfaWQ9Nzc2NzQ5NTImc2VnbWVudF9pZD0zNTk5NSZ0ZT0xJnVzZXJfaWQ9YWE0OTFlZjdmMWQ5NjRlNDk3OWZiNzg0ZTc0ZTAxZDdXA255dEIKAENSHTVfex3yW1IbdHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luOTBAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAAAA) being cast on conservative media, as popular pundits and Fox News hosts intentionally mispronounced her name and questioned whether she could truly claim she was Black.

There are layers of blame to go around, and in the end, this transcends sports.” Finebaum predicted that the loss of the college football season would damage Trump even among his most faithful supporters. “I’ve always tried desperately to keep politics out of our program, and this summer I’ve failed miserably,” he said. “We don’t have a day that doesn’t pass where someone doesn’t call up and blame the president. Even from the South, I’ve heard more anger directed at the president than I thought.” RECOMMENDED READING [[Article Image] Erin Schaff/The New York Times](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRhF6JSP0TzaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyMC8wOC8xMy91cy9wb2xpdGljcy9rYW1hbGEtaGFycmlzLXBlbmNlLWRlYmF0ZS5odG1sP2NhbXBhaWduX2lkPTU2JmVtYz1lZGl0X2NuXzIwMjAwODEzJmluc3RhbmNlX2lkPTIxMjMwJm5sPW9uLXBvbGl0aWNzLXdpdGgtbGlzYS1sZXJlciZyZWdpX2lkPTc3Njc0OTUyJnNlZ21lbnRfaWQ9MzU5OTUmdGU9MSZ1c2VyX2lkPWFhNDkxZWY3ZjFkOTY0ZTQ5NzlmYjc4NGU3NGUwMWQ3VwNueXRCCgBDUh01X3sd8ltSG3RyaXN0cmFtYmFsZHdpbjkwQGdtYWlsLmNvbVgEAAAAAA~~)   [POLITICAL MEMO Should Trump and Pence Be Worried About Kamala Harris?
