At a recent memorial service for Ethel Kennedy, President Joe Biden and former President Barack Obama were caught in what appeared to be a candid exchange that left onlookers speculating. While the event honored the widow of Robert F. Kennedy – a major figure in the Democratic realm – it quickly turned into a delightful sideshow for anyone with half an ear tuned to politics. With the 2024 presidential election looming, the conversation between the two political titans has raised eyebrows and added fuel to the already smoldering Democratic dumpster fire.
What started as a respectful tribute soon morphed into a game of political telephone, with lip-reader Jeremy Freeman swooping in to decode the secretive chat. According to his analysis, Biden and Obama were trading barbs about none other than Vice President Kamala Harris and her status as a contender for the presidency. The exchange allegedly included Biden insinuating that Harris doesn’t quite stack up to him, to which Obama – perhaps wearing his poker face – nodded in apparent agreement. This must have been a difficult pill for a president who often seems more like a walking dad joke than a commanding figure.
Big O's regrets!

In what some might characterize as a slapstick comedy routine within the Democratic Party, the duo’s conversation offered a rare glimpse into the tension simmering just below the surface. Their apparent attempt to reassure one another was hardly convincing to anyone paying close attention. It seems that Biden and Obama are both aware they might be stuck in a game of musical chairs with a candidate they’d prefer to sidestep. The ongoing chatter about weaknesses in Harris’ campaign – driven by whispers of discontent amongst Democrats – suggests that even the old guard recognizes the sinking ship they’ve been captaining.
Long before the memorial service, murmurs circulated about a potential revolt within the Democratic ranks, akin to a political coup against Harris and the aging Biden. Reports of open conventions and talk about replacing both candidates with something – anything – less “sinking” have been circulating like hot gossip at a senior center. In a party that seems to be running out of options, the thought of “robbing Peter to pay Paul” is more than a quirky saying; it’s the stark reality of their predicament.
As if this inner party drama wasn’t juicy enough, there are whispers of friction between the Biden and Harris camps – a riveting subplot that hints at a potentially disastrous election year. Insider reports suggest that Biden’s icy demeanor toward Obama has progressively worsened, prompting speculation that he clung to his presidency out of spite. And now that Biden is officially backing Harris, the question remains whether they’ll tie themselves to a candidate who numerous Democrats aren’t exactly excited about. If they thought they were steering a ship, they’re now navigating an iceberg – and everyone on board is watching to see who jumps overboard first.
