For many, Joe Biden’s decision to withdraw was unexpected. For weeks, his unwavering defiance persisted, and it was only in the final moments before his letter’s upload on X/Twitter that top campaign officials realized he had made a decision.
Naturally, everyone wants to know how it happened. Has Biden had a lightbulb moment? Before he heroically and unselfishly decided to hang up the whistle, did he consult survey data?
Not even close.
According to sources who spoke with the New York Post, senior Democratic Party organizers threatened to remove Joe Biden from his position if he did not withdraw from the race on his own volition.
An insider close to the Biden family told The Post on Monday that although the well-planned “palace coup” to remove the president, who was losing ground for reelection, had been in place for weeks, Biden resisted it at every turn. The source also revealed Biden’s feelings of rage, paranoia, and irritation as the party establishment surrounded him and applied more pressure.”
“As he stated in a shocking letter published on X Sunday, part of the “elaborate” plan to eliminate Biden from the election included letting him debate Republican nominee Donald Trump in person in Atlanta last month. Biden seemed perplexed, slack-jawed, and at one point froze up throughout the ninety-minute debate over the vehicle incident, and his startling performance turned the tables on him.”
On Monday, a family source said that “the debate was a set-up to convince Dems that he couldn’t run for president.”
“Party leaders vowed to use the US Constitution’s 25th Amendment, but Biden insisted he would continue as calls for him to step down rose.”
“The source also stated that the change permits the vice president and cabinet members to declare him unfit for office and require him to resign.”
Vice President Kamala Harris is the Democratic presidential candidate, and Biden immediately backed her. However, several holdouts have yet to embrace Harris, which might lead to a fierce convention struggle. Election Day is now four months away, and the Democratic National Convention is less than a month away.
Democratic Party officials’ willingness to use the 25th Amendment as a kind of blackmail to force Joe Biden out of office says a lot about how they see his viability as president. They wouldn’t have threatened such a move if they didn’t think the public would accept it. It was evident that Biden’s staff anticipated success as well and gave in; the consolation prize for Biden was to continue as president.
The source claims that insiders in the Democratic Party have known about Biden’s slide for a minimum of two years.
“It was terrifying when I saw him a few years ago,” the person claimed. “He had no idea who I was; he was just repeating phrases.”
This provides more evidence that a constitutional crisis is now underway. Democrats are aware that Joe Biden is unfit to hold public office.
