“Well-orchestrated ‘palace coup’ to stop the faltering president from seeking re-election had been in place for weeks, but stubborn Biden fought it every step of the way,” New York Post reported.
The Democratic Party elite have chosen their new candidate, and it apparently isn’t Kamala Harris, according to a bombshell report.
The New York Post reported Monday that a “well-orchestrated palace coup” had been in the works for weeks but Joe Biden resisted every step of the way.
The report went on to say that part of the “elaborate strategy” to remove Biden included allowing him to debate former President Trump to expose his ailing cognitive faculties to the world.
“That debate was a set-up to convince Democrats that he couldn’t run for president,” a source close to the Biden family told the Post.

High-level Democrat Party operatives also reportedly threatened Joe Biden with the 25th Amendment if he didn’t step down.
“As calls for him to bow out mounted, Biden insisted he would continue, but party bigwigs threatened to invoke the 25th Amendment to the US Constitution,” the Post reported.
So Biden was threatened with removal from the presidency altogether if he didn’t bow to the Democratic Party’s demands for him to drop out, which he did Sunday in a letter posted on X.
Despite the fact Biden endorsed Kamala Harris shortly after exiting the race, top Democratic Party operatives already have chosen a different candidate: Arizona Sen. Mark Kelly.
Although Biden immediately endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris as the Democratic candidate for president, the source said Democratic delegates will be strongly encouraged to instead back Arizona Sen. and former astronaut Mark Kelly for president at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago in August.
Interestingly, Kelly is married to former Democrat Rep. Gabby Giffords, who was almost assassinated in January 2011.
The choice could serve as a counter to widespread sympathy for Trump after he was almost assassinated on July 13.
Notably, other corporate news outlets have reported Kelly was among the top vice presidential picks for Harris, along with Gov. Pennsylvania Josh Shapiro, Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, and North Carolina Gov. Roy Cooper.
The post added that Obama conspicuously refrained from endorsing Harris, instead saying Democrats “will be navigating uncharted waters in the days ahead.”
Additionally, the inside source claimed that “Democratic Party insiders have also known for at least two years how Biden was in decline.”
“When I saw him a couple of years ago, it was frightening,” the source said. “He was just repeating slogans and had no idea who I was.”
