Barack Obama and Nancy Pelosi pushed Joe Biden to drop out of the race, and as an “F*** you”, Biden made sure that Kamala Harris – a person neither Obama or Pelosi wanted – would be the Democratic nominee for 2024, Media Take Out has learned.

We spoke with multiple people involved in Democratic politics, and the tea behind how Kamala got the nomination is more scandalous than any of us knew.

According to our insiders, Joe Biden was pushed out of the race at the behest of former president Barack Obama and former speaker of the house Nancy Pelosi. The pair believed that Biden had a diminished mental capacity that they felt would prevent him from beating Donald Trump.

Here’s the kicker. We’re told that neither Barack Obama nor Nancy Pelosi actually wanted Kamala to get the nomination.

One top Democratic insider – who is a Black woman – explained, “People in Washington do not have a high regard for Kamala. And it’s not because she was a Black woman either. She was seen as a not very capable leader.”

And before the election – this was a common held belief. Remember that in the weeks before Biden dropped out, every other potential replacement was floated—except Kamala. No one was seriously talking about her. Almost every other prominent Democrat was being considered, except for the sitting vice president.

Barack Obama and Nancy Pelosi are skilled politicians, who know voters. They both felt the Biden-Harris administration was unpopular, and were skeptical of Kamala Harris leadership qualities. Both fully believed Democrats couldn’t win with Harris leading the charge, multiple insiders told Media Take Out.

Obama and Pelosi were quietly grooming other candidates behind the scenes, in particular Gavin Newsom.

But after the Democratic elders staged a mini-coup, Biden decided to be ‘petty’ on the way out. In his announcement to step down, he endorsed Kamala – to the surprise and consternation of the Democratic Party leaders.

The announcement wasn’t even on official White House letterhead; it looked like something hastily drafted on a private device and posted just to avoid leaks—almost as if it was meant to blindside people. Reports came out that even members of his own staff were caught off guard. You don’t make such an important announcement over the weekend, on social media, and in such a casual manner.

Biden’s announcement took the internet by storm, and threw Kamala Harris into the drivers seat, without any voter input.

We’re told that both Obama and Pelosi were furious with the way that Biden “hijacked” the party. Neither endorsed Kamala for days, and both dragged their feet in publicly backing her candidacy.

Obama eventually came around and played his part, with Michelle alongside him, but Pelosi never generated any real enthusiasm for Harris.

No where we are …. with four years of Donald Trump.

All of this ego, pettiness, and scheming truly robbed Democratic voters of the opportunity to select the candidate that was capable of beating Trump. In the weeks and months ahead, we’ll come to realize just how much autonomy the party stripped from its voters—denying them the right to choose a candidate they could actually get behind.

So who is to blame for this loss: Obama and Pelosi, Biden, Kamala, or ALL OF THEM.
