Kamala Harris’ husband Doug Emhoff will be in the spotlight after Jill Biden’s shocking withdrawal from the presidential campaign

Doug Emhoff will fill in for Jill Biden at a series of fundraisers the campaign has planned, including one on Martha’s Vineyard with David Letterman and one in Paris in connection with the Olympics.

The first lady is stepping down from the campaign trail after her husband Joe Biden withdrew from the presidential race.

The second in command will replace Jill Biden at her upcoming fundraisers in Maine, Martha’s Vineyard and Paris, a Harris campaign official told DailyMail.com.

Jill Biden was a prolific fundraiser for her husband’s campaign, raising millions of dollars for his re-election campaign.

President Biden also canceled a fundraising trip to California and Colorado planned for later this week.

It’s unclear when — or if — the Bidens will hold a fundraiser for Vice President Kamala Harris. Harris’ campaign said President Biden’s events are being rescheduled.

Jill Biden’s team did not respond to DailyMail.com’s request for comment.

Both Joe and Jill Biden were scheduled to attend the Martha’s Vineyard fundraiser on Monday, July 29, which was also hosted by Hawaii Governor Josh Green. Green said the event was held at a family friend’s home.

Letterman, who hosted CBS’ Late Show for 22 seasons, will still be there. But now he’ll be with Emhoff.

The first lady was scheduled to host the fundraiser in Paris on Thursday night after arriving in the city on Friday for the Olympic Games opening ceremony. She is leading the U.S. delegation for the event.

Emhoff will travel to Paris in August to lead the delegation for the closing ceremony. Fundraising is expected to be moved to that time frame.

Jill Biden has not publicly commented on her husband’s withdrawal from the 2024 race or his decision to endorse his vice president as his replacement as the party’s nominee.

She retweeted Joe Biden’s letter announcing his departure with two hearts and she retweeted his statement of support for Harris without comment.

But that is all she has produced.

Harris had gathered enough support to win the nomination within 30 hours, raising more than $100 million. Biden’s campaign is now the Harris for President campaign.

President Biden visited his campaign headquarters on Monday, where Harris visited his staff.

“We love Joe and Jill,” Harris said.

“It’s mutual,” Biden interrupted over the phone line.

Jill and Joe Biden with Kamala Harris and Doug Emhoff on July 4th

Jill Biden and Kamala Harris are not exactly close, although the first lady and Emhoff have a good relationship.

She has never denied a report that She told her supporters that Kamala Harris could “give herself the f*ck” after the June 2019 Democratic primary debate, where the then-presidential candidate attacked her Joe Biden for supporting racist bus policies.

aAccording to journalist Edward-Isaac Dovere’s book about the 2020 Democratic presidential primaries, “Battle for the Soul: Inside the Democrats’ Campaigns to Defeat Trump,” Jill Biden made her feelings about Harris’ attack on Biden’s position on a controversial busing program in the 1970s very clear.

Harris attacked Biden for this during the first primary debate, which earned her attack a huge fundraising and publicity boost.

Jill Biden, who is known for her grudges, was reportedly not happy.

“Given what he values, what he fights for, what he stands for, are you going to call him a racist without any basis?” Jill said during a phone call with her closest supporters a week after the debate, according to multiple people present at the call.

“Go and have some fun.”

During the 2019 debate, the height of the Democratic presidential primary, Biden was caught off guard by Harris’s attacks, which he said did not support desegregating schools through busing in the 1970s.

Harris, a half-Indian, half-Jamaican daughter of immigrants, reminded Biden that she benefited from the bus system at the time.

“That little girl was me,” she told him.
