“Biden” shake off the gloves is more than a little entertaining. Pass the popcorn…
According to reports, Obama was a key player in the coup to force Joe Biden to drop out of the 2024 election, and Biden is naturally very bitter about it. But the latest revelations about their toxic dynamic during the campaign go beyond personal bitterness. They expose a level of dysfunction within the Democratic Party that’s so raw and chaotic, it would make even veteran political insiders wince.
… What makes this story particularly delicious is how Biden’s staff reacted to Obama’s intervention. According to the book, some of them thought Obama was being a “prick” and felt he “disrespected and mistreated Biden.”
It is just funny and entertaining to see this come out now. Those of us on the Conservative side always knew this is an issue.
Let’s be honest—conservatives saw this coming back in 2008. Joe Biden was a non-factor in the Democratic primary, barely registering in the polls and flaming out after a humiliating finish in Iowa. He wasn’t chosen for his political prowess or popular appeal—he was picked because Obama needed an “elder statesman” to paper over his lack of experience. That’s all Biden ever was in that ticket: window dressing for a green senator trying to look presidential.
Joe Biden was always a complete cipher. He never brought any skills or expertise to the table, and he was only there because he was a convenient choice for Obama. Sure, he got a lot worse as he became more and more demented as time went on. But that was always his role anyway! Even as president, he was never the alpha dog.
