The team with the energy. Reed Galen Edition. (Ep. 18)

President of Join The Union and Lincoln Project co-founder Reed Galen talks with 24sight's Tom LoBianco about how Biden's exit and Harris's rise have changed the race

President Joe Biden’s exit and Vice President Kamala Harris’s securing of the Democratic nomination have fundamentally reshaped the race for the White House. So who better to tell us what this all means than longtime operative

Galen. He co-founded The Lincoln Project, has been in the trenches for years and is now the president of pro-democracy group Join the Union.

Show notes:

  • Wild four weeks, don’t speculate what’s next because we may jinx ourselves

  • Should Biden stump for Harris as a surrogate, try to keep Black voters and blue-collar white voters in the fold?

  • The trick for America’s pro-democracy coalition will be capturing the coconut energy and turning it into resolve in these final months

  • Vivisections of the Republican convention last week in Milwaukee and the effect of the Trump campaign promising a changed man and Trump delivering … Trump

  • Harris’s veepstakes — who would fit best? Galen makes a strong case for Arizona Sen. Mark Kelly (and a shoutout to Sirius XM’s Julie Mason who first flagged Kelly as a top contender.)
