Joe Biden said Kamala Harris that there can be 'no daylight, child' between his presidency and her election campaign prior to the first debate of the vice president with Donald Trump.
The losing Harris-Tim Walz campaign has had the same game game after the loss that every failed campaign has, with everyone, from the candidates themselves to employees who take the heat.
Many have already blamed Biden, 82 because they are an albatros of the candidacy of his successor.
A new book – Fight: Inside the Styste Battle for the White House by Jonathan Allen and Amie Parnes – suggests that the President demanded full loyalty of Harris.
On the day of Harris' first debate with Trump, Biden called the Vice President for a Peptalk.
However, it turned out to be more instructions to protect Biden's inheritance, with a warning of three words.
“No daylight, kid,” Biden reportedly said to the then 59-year-old Harris.
Biden would regularly use that sentence to bind John McCain to George W. Bush prior to the 2008 elections when he ran with Barack Obama.

The authors state whether Harris won or lost, “She would only harm him by publicly distinguishing herself from him. '
The Biden employees remained at the Harris campaign, making it even more difficult to publicly refute the president.
Sean Clegg, a Harris adviser who was not trusted by the employees of Biden, helped her to prepare for a joint performance with Walz when she started listing things she and Biden achieved.
'Wait, wait, wait! Let's not do this. Let's not continue the memory, “he said, published by the Hill according to a fragment.
Clegg was reportedly not carried out from future media -prep sessions by the old DEM communication -employee Stephanie Cutter.
Harris Aides previously claimed that the Biden team deliberately did not work with them because the president was forced to stop.
Biden was previously blamed by senior Harris adviser David Plouffe, but because he refused to put in the race earlier after his debate disaster in June.
Plouffe claimed that no democratic candidate could have won without a good primary process – what he called 'the cardinal sin' of this race.

And he said he was shocked by the internal polls when he finally came to the team after Joe Biden stopped with less than four months to go, a situation he described as 'catastrophic'.
'When I came in, it was the first time I saw the actual figures under the hood. They were pretty horrible, “he told the Atlantic Ocean.
'The sun band was worse than the blue wall, but the blue wall was bad. And a demographic point of view, young voters were in a really terrible form across the board – poor voters, black voters, Asian voters.
'When the switch happened, some of that stuff got a little better, but not nearly where we ended up or where we had to be. This was a rescue mission.
“It was catastrophic in terms of where it was.”
Biden eventually argued for pressure from allies and stood aside on July 21.
The party quickly gathered around his vice -president to become the candidate and to avoid a long -term game that some feared that it would distribute Democrats and hand over the elections to Trump, but it was not allowed.
“I'm not sure, given the headwind, every democrat could have won,” said Plouffe.
'But if we had a primary in which a bunch of people ran and auditioned … Because of that process, who originated … would have been a fully formed person, would have had more time to set up a general election campaign.
'[Not having that process] Is the head sin. '
And then they had to condense a campaign in just over 100 days.
“Our first week, it was like:” Well, we need a biography advertisement, we have to talk across the border, we have to put an economic contrast, we have to get health care there, abortion, “Plouffe said.
'If you have six, seven, eight months, your storyboard all these things, you have a narrative arch. Everything was broken here and clashed. '
The Biden and Harris teams blamed each other for wasting more than $ 1 billion in donor -current money on a disastrous presidential campaign.
Vice Presidential Flop Tim Walz blamed himself and Harris for the Democrats' 'Mess' after their losses at the top of the ticket in November.
Walz and Harris lost Elke Swing -State of Trump, which led to an eruption of the election lecture and became the first Democratic ticket to lose the popular mood since 2004 and only the second since 1988.
