Report: Obama Withholds Harris Endorsement for Fear of Being Seen as ‘Engineering’ Coronation
Breitbart ^ | 07/22/2024 | WENDELL HUSEBØ

Posted on 07/22/2024 8:22:27 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Former President Barack Obama withheld endorsing Vice President Kamala Harris on Sunday because he is worried about being seen as a “back-room party” boss “engineering a Harris coronation,” Politico Playbook reported Monday.

The report underscores concerns that Obama pushed Biden out and is trying to coronate Harris as the de facto nominee, nullifying about 14 million votes Biden received in the Democrat primary.

A person familiar with Obama’s thinking appeared to refute those concerns to Playbook, however, claiming that Obama wants Democrats “to create a process from which an outstanding nominee emerges.”

That’s a funny way to say, “Hell no.”

It might look like Barry's taking credit in order to deny his role behind the curtain but in this case, Barry is the curtain; which for many decades most politicians have been.

Ignore https://www.rbf.org/programs/democratic-practice the real operators at our peril.

This is all theatrics. Obama has been behind Kamala's ascendency for a long time. The LA Times called them "personal friends" in 2009 and remember when he called her "by far the best looking attorney general in the country."

Obama set her up to be Biden's VP so that this could happen. Because she couldn't do it without someone giving it to her. Like Willie Brown did for her too.

“He’s going to be calling the shots anyhow.”

He was already calling the shots, so regardless of how engaged biden was or wasn’t obama gets credit for biden’s shitshow of an administration.

And we fully expect whatever slab of a nominee they ‘select’ to be just as representative of a puppet as biden was.

These clowns think that they are SOOOOO smart, but - every last time, they give away EXACTLY what they are doing - by issuing a denial of what they are doing.

Virtually all Democrats will be in happy delirium if Michelle runs, they will perceive it as a third term for Barry. Look at it this way, if Barry was allowed to run, he would do better than any of the other candidates. Michelle = Barry and I've worried about this all the way.
