President Joe Biden is reportedly fed up with his pals, former President Barack Obama and former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi over what many are calling a coup d’état within the Democratic Party’s nomination process.
Several people close to Biden told the New York Times on Friday that the embattled president sees Pelosi as “the main instigator” and Obama as “the puppet master behind the scenes” in efforts to remove him from the 2024 race.
Biden’s anger seems to be triggered by a plethora of leaks and stories from anonymous sources suggesting he has considered passing the torch to a successor, likely Kamala Harris, his equally unpopular vice president.
According to the Washington Post, 37 lawmakers have called on Biden to exit the ticket. One of those lawmakers is Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., a close Pelosi ally who many believe got Pelosi’s approval before backstabbing Biden.
Despite these demands, Biden has pledged to remain in the race ahead of the Democratic National Convention.
“I look forward to getting back on the campaign trail next week to continue exposing the threat of Donald Trump’s Project 2025 agenda while making the case for my own record and the vision that I have for America,” Biden wrote following President Donald Trump’s monumental Republican National Convention.
While Obama has not publicly called on Biden to step down, he has also not defended him since the “bloodbath” presidential debate, perhaps aware of his former vice president’s cognitive decline.
As reported by the Times, a source close to Obama admitted that the former president was “startled and shaken by how much Mr. Biden had aged and seemed disoriented” at a multi-million-dollar fundraiser. Viral video showed Biden frozen while cheering the crowd at the fundraiser, prompting Obama to direct Biden to the exit.
While the Times does not specify who its sources were, former Obama aides Jon Favreau and Dan Pfeiffer criticized the White House for scolding them over comments made on Pod Save America—a podcast launched by former “Obama bros.”
“ passing the torch to a successor, likely Kamala Harris”
…”likely”?! 25th says it so
Tell them to stick it up their butt President Retard and exclude all those people from your convention that’s being held just for you
Let the demonrats fight it out. Schadenfreude is a wonderful thing
Nothing shows Biden is angry until he opens up that file he has used to keep power for over 50 years.
Until then this is nothing more than smoke signals.
And yet it was the very same Obama who put out a media notice after Biden got called out for his fundraiser freeze and said nothing happened, it was just two pals walking off the stage. The amount of reckless, bald-faced deceit -- even by Democrat standards -- is staggering.
Seriously I do not have enough popcorn for this show!
That’s the last time I listen to Mark Halpern........
Things aren’t going to smell better till zer0 and alcohol-nancy change pedojoe’s diaper.
I am not quite sure Barry should be given the credit of being puppet master.
Barry don’t even wear the pants in his own family.
I think the Persian, Valerie Jarrett is pulling Barry’s chain.
Don’t stand for any malarkey or take any guff, Joey BayBEEEEEE!
That convention will be a hatefest!
25th says no such thing. If Jill counterfeits a letter from Joe saying he contests the application of the 25th, then the house and Senate have to vote by 2/3 majorities to remove him or the vegetable stays. I know there are a lot of RINOs itching to let the Dems off the hook here and steal defeat from the jaws of victory, but still it’s a large uphill clime.
The Bush Rule Applies to everyone: “Attacking your base is NOT a winning strategy”
I can think of nothing more central to the core powers of the presidency than defending his presidency against all these interlopers and he has immunity and a catolog of things Trump could have done with immunity furnished by the democrats to chose from.. Ummmm Ummmm
If it wasn’t for Nanzi and Barry, Demented Joe Pedo never would have been a President. Ungrateful Slob. k
