Seems we've encountered a brick wall here. Imma guestimate that there are limited options when you encounter a brick wall:
- Turn around and go back
- Go around or over it
- Deny it is there
- Smash through it

Failing that: What risk is there if they are so uber confident that the people will select Kamala/Walz easily? I mean, they've been carrying the water for them this whole time, as if they were Gunga Din...
