Folks, let's stop for a minute and reflect on what Kamala Harris did in the last 24 hours.

Donald Trump started this week with ugly comments about lynching and ended the week getting an award from an OUTSIDE group on an HBCU campus. That had to be challenged.

So Kamala Harris pulled her support for the forum. She was prepared to hold a counter-program with her own people.

That was a huge gamble, because it only works if you have the ability to rally your own supporters on short notice. Team Kamala HAD that ability, and therefore was taken seriously.

It's also important to note that Columbia Mayor Steve Benjamin, one of the co-sponsors of the event, had a choice to make -- he could side with the Trump friendly sponsors, or side with Kamala.

He sided with Kamala.

Now, that doesn't automatically mean an endorsement (and Benjamin will be a big endorsement when it comes) but it never hurts to work together toward a common good.

So tactically and strategically, this was a big win for Team Kamala. /end
