“That debate was a set-up to convince Democrats that he couldn’t run for president,” a source close to the Biden family told The Post Monday.
Joe Biden was forced to leave the presidential race after high-level Democrats threatened him with the 25th Amendment.
Operatives at the very highest levels of the Democratic Party threatened Joe Biden with forcibly removing him from office unless he stepped down, sources told The Post.
The well-orchestrated “palace coup” to stop the faltering president seeking re-election has been in place for weeks, but stubborn Biden fought against it every step of the way, according to the sources.
Part of the “elaborate” strategy to remove Biden from the race – as he announced in a shock letter posted on X Sunday – was allowing him to debate Republican candidate Donald Trump last month on live TV in Atlanta.
During the car crash 90-minute debate, Biden appeared confused, slack-jawed and at one point he froze up, with his shocking performance turning the tide against him.
Biden is said to have stubbornly fought against the recent calls for him to step down until his shock announcement on Sunday that he will not seek re-election
Although Biden immediately endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris as the Democratic candidate for president, the source said Democratic delegates will be strongly encouraged to instead back Arizona senator and former astronaut Mark Kelly for president at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago in August.

>> set him up to fail at Trump debate
really?
Who is Mark Kelly ?
How about Bugs Bunny?
I dont get something..the DNC rigged the primaries to make sure that Biden and ONLY Biden got the nomination..what did they think, that Biden would NEVER have to debate Trump, even if the debate had been a month later same result..so what did the DNC think, that no would notice at the debate this decrepit fool wouldn’t be able to put a sentence together
Palace coup
A palace coup or palace revolution is a coup in which one faction within the ruling group displaces another faction within a ruling group.[34] Along with popular protests, palace coups are a major threat to dictators.[35] The Harem conspiracy of the 12th century BC was one of the earliest. Palace coups were common in Imperial China.[36] They have also occurred among the Habsburg dynasty in Austria, the Al-Thani dynasty in Qatar,[37] and in Haiti in the 19th to early 20th centuries.[38] The majority of Russian tsars between 1725 and 1801 were either overthrown or usurped power in palace coups.[39] The July 2024 announcement via social media that Joseph Biden, President of the United States of America, would not be seeking renomination by the Democratic Party is considered by some observers to be a palace coup.
Yeah, they set him up to fail or not at the early debate.
People here made that point immediately when the debate was announced.
But I still don’t think Biden has agreed to step down.
“Sources” ??? Or just Biden/Biden family excuses for Biden’s own failures???
“Arizona senator and former astronaut Mark Kelly” Can you imagine this clown running for President? He would be nowhere if his wife had not been shot by a looony named Jared Lee Loughner (was he found to be a Democrat or lefty of some kind)
Who had been running the government these past year or so? Who was representing to the nation that Biden’s health was just fine?
They may have wanted the opportunity to select their nominee without pesky voters. They can basically put whomever they want now. Tailor made to beat Trump. They don’t see delegates as people so they can be forced to doing what they want. Rush used to say, eventually Democrats will just get rid of voting. I used to take it as a joke but it seems as though he got another one right.
I find it interesting that when talking about candidates they NEVER tell you how that persons policies differ from crooked Joe Biden.
“Conspiracy theory #12,438 proven right....”
If you aren’t well enough to campaign you certainly aren’t well enough to govern as president of the USA.
Biden just told the nation he should resign immediately.
DUMB MOVE
He could be being held in isolation and incommunicado by armed guards for all we know.
The reality is most likely that Team Biden was trying to bluff Trump on the debate issue and it back fired.
If you look back, Biden began taunting Trump about how Biden really wanted to debate Trump but Trump as afraid to debate Joe because Joe had kicked his ass in debates so many times . The Biden goal was to maneuver Trump into rejecting debate terms to manufacture a false narrative that Trump was unwilling and unable to debate President Trump because Trump was afraid Biden would beat him so badly .
In reality, Biden had no intention of debating but was instead trying to suck Trump into bad faith debate negotiations using outrageous debate terms so one sided and unfavorable that Trump would never accept.
President Trump called Team Biden's bluff and accepted terms that pretty much everyone acknowledged was a de facto hostile ambush. Trump accepted debate terms so one sides and unfavorable that virtually all of supporters figured the debate would be a disaster and thought Trump should withdraw.
Trump called Biden's bluff and showed up. The rest is history
Debate happened long before election. We never had debates so soon, I read even before debate that it was designed to test Bidens faculties.
If he failed, there would be enough time to remove him and nominate somebody else.
AND I'M ON MY WAY TO THE POLICE STATION RIGHT NOW TO DONATE IT!!!
“Threatened” “to forcibly” remove Biden? And how by chance did they have the power to “forcibly” remove Biden? Sounds like a buch of speculative malarky.
