Waiting until the last second absolutely fucked the GOP though. They were only prepared to run against Biden and now they don't have the time needed to spin up an effective campaign against Harris.
I don't know if the timing was strategic or just a tough decision, both seem possible. But the end result is that we're now in a better position to stop Trump in November.
It was not strategic. It was hubris and bad advice bordering on elderly abuse. I have no doubt Jill Biden was a big part of the choice to stick it out, based on some of the insider leaks on this topic.
