OPINION:
The coup to remove President Biden from the Democratic presidential ticket is no joke. It is the prelude to what could happen if Democrats retain the White House.
While Democrats talk the talk about democracy, they don’t walk the walk. Coups do not occur in democracies. Mr. Biden was elected president in 2020 but is not running the country. Instead, the U.S. is being controlled by oligarchs who tell Mr. Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris what to say and do. In an unprecedented and unconstitutional move, the Democrats gave Ms. Harris the nomination without her having received a single vote.
The Democratic Party has become a machine, complete with media control, and it is doing the same thing with Ms. Harris it did with Mr. Biden: building her up into something she clearly is not. In a matter of hours she went from a weak vice president the Democrats tried not to talk about to a political mastermind and presidential hopeful. In reality, she is nothing but a puppet and the new Manchurian candidate. And the Democrats will continue to prop her up until she is no longer of any use.
