I wonder if he knows yet.
I’m not questioning it - I know it was a coup.
From a well-known newspaper:
“I need you and Mike at the house,” President Biden said late Saturday afternoon.
Mr. Biden was on the phone from his vacation home in Rehoboth Beach, Del., with Steve Ricchetti, one of his closest advisers. The president was referring to Mike Donilon, his chief strategist. Soon, both men were in Rehoboth, socially distanced from the president, who was recovering from Covid.
From that afternoon and far into the night, the three worked on one of the most important and historic letters of Mr. Biden’s presidency — his decision to withdraw from his re-election campaign after top Democrats, donors, close allies and friends had pressured him relentlessly to get out.
He finalized the decision only on Sunday morning and then made separate calls to three people to let them know: Vice President Kamala Harris; Jeffrey D. Zients, the White House chief of staff; and Jen O’Malley Dillon, the campaign chairwoman. He would not tell most of his staff until a minute before making his announcement to the world on social media on Sunday.
Mr. Biden made his decision, a senior administration official familiar with his thinking said, in part because he had tried for weeks to flip the attention from his listless and at times incoherent debate performance last month back to his Republican opponent, former President Donald J. Trump.
But in the end, the official said, Mr. Biden “couldn’t get there.”
I do not care if it was an internal coup or not, what I want to hear now is that Biden is resigning.
Removed by the same forces that installed him.
LOL
Joe was bullied out of the presidency by the donors
Don’t get no funnier than that
Trump wins, going away...
Not the victim of a coup. A perpetrator of a coup 4 years ago.
I think we all know there’s an untold story of what happened behind the scenes to generate this letter and suddenly Biden announces he’s pulling out.
I look forward to learning what the real events were behind all of this.
No doubt in my mind that something along those lines occurred.
Biden's announcement stunned White House and campaign aides, who up until this afternoon were insisting he'd stay in the race.
"We’re all finding out by tweet,” said one Dem. “None of us understand what’s happening.” https://t.co/VHphH6HPNL— POLITICO (@politico) July 21, 2024
“Well, son of a bitch, he got fired!”
There’s no way he could have written or dictated that letter.
It was a coup.
I don’t think he even knows that he has resigned.
I think corn pop was in on it and got all the Democrats together to boot him out. Corn pop had enough of the nonsense and brought his chain. That was it.
Blink twice if you need help, Joe!
Oh wait, he already never blinks…
Definitely of the COUP-FLU.
What average person of normal sensibilities would incessantly “test” for COVID?
“””People are questioning whether Biden actually resigned or was the victim of a coup”””
From the hundreds of FReeper comments I have read today, the FReeper wing of the political world is not questioning that it was a coup.
It’d be easy enough to do - just deny him the drugs they were using to keep him “spritely”.
And now we know how Democrats overturn an election.
He didn’t resign anything.
He didn’t resign the presidency.
He’s not the nominee.
