23 JUL 2024 · This week on Look Forward, Jay and Brad once again return for the second week in a row with a massive historical moment. President Joe Biden announces that he is no longer seeking the nomination for president and endorses his vice president, Kamala Harris to take his place. Record breaking donations flood the Democratic party. What unique qualities does Kamala Harris bring to the race as the nominee for her party? The Veepstakes is back but this time for the Dems. Who are Harris' option as her potential VP? Trumpworld absolutely freaks out over the news and its hilarious to watch. Republican convention was a massive mess, let's talk about it. More talk about Project 2025 as Harris goes after it and Trump directly. Ted Cruz is legitimately afraid he might lose in Texas, and now that Biden is gone is JD Vance the right choice for Trump's VP nominee, and much more!
