– If Kamala Harris becomes the presidential candidate, the Democrats will actually have to completely reinvent her profile – said Paweł Zalewski, deputy head of the Ministry of National Defense, member of the Polish 2050-Trzejcie Droga party, in “Fakty po Faktach” on TVN24. PiS member of parliament Radosław Fogiel noted that Harris' expected entry into the race for the White House “forces the Trump campaign to change its guns.”
Joe Biden withdrew from his bid for a second term as president on Sunday evening USA. Some Democratic Party donors and politicians have been calling on him to take this step for weeks. Biden has named former Vice President Kamala Harris as his replacement. However, this does not mean that she is officially the nominee, as the final decision will be made at the Democratic convention in late August.
However, as of Sunday evening, a number of influential Democratic politicians had declared their support for Harris.

Zalewski: Democrats Will Have to Completely Reinvent Harris' Profile
The situation in the USA was discussed in “Fakty po Faktach” on TVN24 PiS MP Radoslaw Fogiel and Paweł Zalewski, Deputy Minister of National Defense, MP of Poland 2050-Third Way.
Zalewski said that Biden had been under “enormous pressure” recently. – I remember recently during the summit (FOR THIS) in Washington I watched American television, it was actually all about that. There was one big pressure on Biden and it seemed that Biden would have a hard time dealing with that pressure. The decision (to resign – ed.) seemed rather expected – said the deputy head of the Ministry of National Defense. He added that “the president's ability to perform this function has been questioned.”
Zalewski also commented on Kamala Harris' chances. He said that during the campaign she will have to answer several important questions.
– She will have to face what her attitude is towards the issue of punishment for crimes, towards the issue of crime. After all, she was the attorney general in California, she was known for her instability. And this is one of the most important issues. She will be blamed by Republicans for Biden's policy towards the border, towards Mexicoa wall on the border. So the democrats will actually have to invent its profile completely anew – said the deputy head of the Ministry of National Defense.

Fogiel: Trump Campaign Forced to Reposition Guns
According to Radosław Fogel Kamala Harris “she definitely has one thing that gives her a good starting position”. – She is a breath of hope, a breath of freshness. Vitality, personal exuberance are one thing. The second thing is a phenomenon that has certainly been visible in recent weeks. That is, the fatigue and fear of Democratic voters. This seed of doubt was starting to sprout: is Joe Biden really a good president in this state – he said.
As Fogiel continued, “there was a danger that even some Democratic voters might not have voted for Trump but would have stayed home, not being convinced that Joe Biden is the one who should serve as president.”
Fogiel also spoke about how Harris' probable presidential candidacy would affect voting attitudes. Donald Trump.
In his opinion, Harris' expected entry into the race for the White House “forces the Trump campaign to change its guns”. – This great machine, the great warship of the Republican campaign has to change a bit. Of course, this is already happening, for example, this positioning of the opponent – saying that with Kamala it will be even easier (to win – ed.) than with Biden, this is already an attempt to put the opponent in a disadvantageous starting position – explained the PiS MP.
