Former Democratic Ohio Congressman Tim Ryan told TMZ that many Americans view continuing with Biden as unrealistic following his poor debate performance against Trump on June 27.
Ryan, who has spoken with key Democratic figures, believes Harris is the best option and would inherit Biden's campaign resources.
Trump, seeing Harris as an easier opponent, noted through spokesperson Karoline Leavitt that polls show him beating Harris by a wider margin than Biden.
