In particular, the report said that shortly before the Republican convention, Trump's team prepared a series of anti-Harris videos to show to delegates at the event and on television, but after the assassination attempt on Trump, it was decided to abandon this idea.
In addition, the Republican National Committee is closely monitoring the financing of Biden's election campaign and will be ready to file lawsuits if Harris illegally uses this funding in any way, the report said on Saturday.

‘So F***ing Bad’: Trump Predicts ‘Pathetic’ Kamala Harris Will Replace Biden
On Friday, CNN said that some White House officials and members of Joe Biden's camp were privately saying that the 81-year-old should drop out of the race. NBC reported that Biden’s family members were discussing an exit plan amid growing pressure on Biden to step aside.
Biden's dismal performance in the first campaign debate against his Republican rival in June reinforced concerns about his cognitive abilities, leading many Democratic politicians and donors to call on him to quit. The Democratic Party can theoretically replace Biden at its convention in August. So far, Biden is saying that he intends to stay in the race.
