In all fairness, I’m sure this isn’t how Kamala wanted this to go down. I’m sure she wanted him to win reelection.
And then have to step down in February of 2025…

You sir, are right.

If President Biden had indicated a year ago that he was not going to run for election, I really doubt that VP Harris would be the nominee today.

Some highlights from a Marist poll:
87% of Americans think Biden’s decision to drop out of the 2024 presidential race was the right thing to do. 12% believe it was the wrong thing to do.
77% of Democrats and Democratic-leaning independents say Harris should be the party’s nominee. 22% think the Democrats should find someone else to challenge Harris.

Too bad opinion polls aren’t democratic. By the way, 77% of the Pro-Biden voters in 2020 chose not to participate in this year’s primaries. Choosing not to vote is a choice as well.
