Biden campaign reportedly tells donors funds would go to Kamala Harris if he drops out
According to reports, the Biden campaign has told donors that their stacks of cash would go to Kamala Harris if the president ends up dropping out of the race.
That would give a major boost to Kamala - who didn't clearly rise to the top of the pack to replace the president, despite being second in line.
She has struggled with low approval ratings for months and voters are not enthusiastic about her at the top of the ticket.

Exclusive: Key Democrat donors threaten to pull plug if Biden doesn't resign, as furious party insiders reveal 'worst fears' about ailing president have now been confirmed

Growing Democratic uproar over President Joe Biden's shockingly feeble debate performance on Thursday night appears to be turning into a full-blown party revolt.
'For Biden's own good and the good of the country, he should step aside immediately,' major Democratic donor and former hedge fund manager Whitney Tilson told DailyMail.com. 'The fact that it has now been three days and Biden has done nothing to reassure us confirms my worst fears.'
Tilson has given the party more than $300,000 in recent years.
Days after the President struggled to hold his train of thought and tailed off mid-answer into incomprehensible gibberish during the CNN debate, left-wing benefactors are still up in arms.
