It’s been an epic whisper campaign about Barack Obama’s feelings towards Vice President Kamala Harris, and her chances to win the election in 2024. These whispers and leaks are likely to continue until the convention and beyond. First Lady Jill Biden is likely behind the revenge tour. According to an article, the Bidens have never truly forgiven Obama for pushing Joe Biden aside in 2016 for Hillary Clinton. There is also bitterness about Biden’s forced one-term presidency.
Biden’s emotions were raw for many years after Obama chose Hillary Clinton as his VP over him in 2016. Though it was much quieter, they both remember the uncomfortable days leading up to 2020 – their negotiations, their careful balancing of personal and political sensibilities, and Obama’s interest in candidates who were not named Joe.
Lady MacBiden loves the power and prestige of the White House. She is probably furious that Nancy Pelosi, former House Speaker (D-CA), and Obama teamed up to prevent her husband from seeking a second term. Douglas Brinkley, a presidential historian, appeared on CBS News “Face the Nation,” in February. He alluded to it and said that Jill Biden had been the one who convinced him to run.
WATCH:
Jill Biden, during President Joe Biden’s Wednesday Oval Office address, which said little, released a note she wrote to supporters.
The First Lady has released a note to supporters:
“To those who never wavered, to those who refused to doubt, to those who always believed, my heart is full of gratitude.
Thank you for the trust you put in Joe — now it’s time to put that trust in Kamala.
Love,
Jill” pic.twitter.com/DW0ywHlVur— Yashar Ali 🐘 (@yashar) July 25, 2024
Her words are venomous. For those who wavered and were a member of the group that threw her husband under a bus, hell will pay – probably at the Democrat National Convention this August. It is said that Obama did not want VP Kamala to Harris at the top of his ticket. Biden’s immediate endorsement of her was a way of sticking it to Obama.
Sources close to the Bidens have claimed that Obama is ‘furious and shocked’ at the fact that Harris was endorsed so quickly by the President.
The insider said that Obama is upset because he realizes she cannot win. Obama knows that she is incompetent – the border czar, who has never been to the border and said all migrants should be insured. She is unable to navigate the landmines in front of her.
Sources claimed that Obama preferred to have Mark Kelly, former astronaut and Arizona senator, at the top of the list at the Democratic National Convention next month in Chicago.
According to former Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich who is a felon, Obama plans to stage a coup to remove Harris.
I’ve known Obama since 1995. We both come out of Chicago politics. I know how it works. He’s behind the campaign to dump 15 million Dem primary voters & replace Biden with his choice. Classic Chicago Democrat machine politics. Selection over election. The bosses over the people. pic.twitter.com/5ibvaX9IzP

Other sources dispute this, saying that he plans to endorse Harris by Thursday and will even campaign with her.
People familiar with the discussion didn’t know when his endorsement was made. Obama did not want to take away from President Joe Biden’s moment in the spotlight, especially his Oval Office speech to the nation on Wednesday night.
One person who was familiar with the discussion said that Obama and Harris wanted his endorsement to be its moment. Harris is trying to maintain the momentum of her campaign among Democrats, which she has enjoyed since entering the race.
Expect the DNC’s unplanned moments to grow and become louder. The DNC Rules Committee met on Zoom on Wednesday to approve a process of a virtual roll call vote to confirm Kamala as their nominee for 2024 instead of the formal roll call on the convention floor.
The new rules note that there will be a state-by-state roll call at the Chicago convention for the Democratic ticket, but describe those votes as “celebratory” and “ceremonial”.
As if this will appease voters who were de-democratized, by the party which is supposed to save democracy from Donald Trump. It doesn’t matter if they changed the rules for Harris’ election, not everyone will follow suit.
Get ready, this should be interesting.
