Biden's Popularity Skyrockets After He Announces Trump Is His VP

U.S. — In a much-needed surge in popularity after disastrous debate performances and gaffe-filled public appearances, Presiden Joe Biden's popularity skyrocketed overnight after he announced Donald Trump as his vice presidential running mate.
The announcement came during a highly anticipated press conference, with Biden making the shocking declaration that Trump had replaced Kamala Harris as Vice President. Pollsters revealed the announcement of Trump as VP did wonders for Biden's dwindling approval rating.
"He's never seen numbers like this," said political analyst James Broyles. "Even at his highest points, he's struggled to gain traction with a broad base of voters. Naming Trump as his VP last night totally changed that. His popularity among nearly every voting block is through the roof. This might turn the tide in the election."
Though sources within the administration said Vice President Harris was blindsided by the switch, Trump insiders said the former president was ready to take the job. "He didn't expect this, but he's ready," said one Trump confidant. "The way he sees it, he's in a no-lose situation. Either he wins the election in November as president or Biden wins re-election, keels over not long after, and his VP — Trump — ends up in the Oval Office anyway. This is 4D chess at its finest."
At publishing time, Washington, D.C. was still swept up in chaos as Democrats and members of the media remained confounded about whether or not they could remain supportive of Biden's re-election now that Trump had been added to the ticket.
