As President Joe Biden endures the harsh spotlight after his poor debate performance and subsequent gaffes during his highly anticipated NATO "big boy press conference," Vice President Kamala Harris is also bearing the brunt of former President Trump's jabs as she is portrayed as a potential successor.In both scenarios, Harris would succeed Biden if he resigned from office, and she would also be a top contender for the 2024 Democratic nomination if Biden suspends his 2024 re-election campaign. A national poll released by CNN last week also suggests that Harris performs slightly better than Biden in a hypothetical matchup against Trump.Trump, in a Truth Social post, accused Biden of having "choked like a dog" during the debate and offered his "congratulations" to the vice president as he dubbed her "Laffin’ Kamala Harris." Trump has given his opponents various nicknames in the past, like "Low Energy Jeb" [Bush], "Crooked Hillary" [Clinton], and "Sleepy Joe" [Biden].
