On a sunny Sunday afternoon, President Joe Biden officially put the brakes on his 2024 presidential campaign, sparking a frenzy in the political arena. After facing mounting pressure from within his own party, the once-mighty “protecting Democracy” banner has been dramatically lowered. In a digital farewell to his campaign, Biden gave a nod to his loyal sidekick, Vice President Kamala Harris, anointing her as the Democratic replacement at the helm.
Biden’s abrupt exit has stirred a tempest of accusations regarding the orchestrators of what some are boldly labeling as a coup. This is especially rich coming from the party that prides itself on being the guardians of democracy while actively working to oust their own nominee. One doesn’t need a degree in political science to see the irony here—good luck finding the “saving democracy” narrative amidst this party intrigue. After all, when the going gets tough, the elite get going… to the nearest backroom deal.

Behind the scenes, the Democrats, corporate media, and their billionaire benefactors successfully piled on the pressure until Biden was forced to drop out. It seems the collective panic over dwindling polls got the better of Democrat leadership, leading to this electoral coup. Rather than letting the voters decide through a fair process, the establishment opted for a power play, smashing any semblance of democratic practices they claim to uphold. Talk about a “choose-your-own-adventure” story gone wrong—only this time no one gets to choose.
The sudden shift has ignited a political firestorm, with notable figures across the conservative spectrum calling out the Democrats for their blatant disregard of the vote counts. With more than 14 million citizens casting their ballots for Biden, one must wonder how the Democrats reconcile their claims of being the party that champions the people’s will. Instead, they resort to elite machinations to preserve the status quo, revealing the true face of a party willing to bulldoze over its base for personal gain.
Predictably, the conversation has turned to the future of Vice President Kamala Harris. With Biden’s departure, many are wondering if Harris can escape the fate of being used as a pawn in this political game. Given recent history, it wouldn’t be surprising if the same forces that orchestrated Biden’s exit turn their sights on her down the line. In a party where loyalty is as fleeting as a social media trend, one must question who will come out unscathed.
With under 100 days left until the elections, Biden’s departure has transformed the political landscape into a 3-ring circus. Moving forward, conservatives will keep a close eye on a party that has shown its willingness to disregard democracy when it doesn’t suit their agenda. If only they would take a cue from their own rhetoric about democracy and realize that real leadership comes from the bottom up, not the top down.
