It took just 48 hours for Kamala Harris to secure support from enough Democrat delegates to take the party’s nomination from Joe Biden. But the coup was set in motion weeks ago, with party operatives plotting to use his mental decline to force him out.
The numbers: Harris has secured the support of at least 2,668 Democrat delegates, according to an unofficial tally by the Associated Press. That far exceeds the 1,976 needed to win the nomination and makes her the presumptive nominee.

- Harris said in a statement that she is “grateful to President Biden and everyone in the Democratic Party who has already put their faith in me.”
FYI: Delegates are pledged to a candidate by states after primary elections. Since Biden has dropped out, they can now theoretically pledge to whomever they choose.
The coup: According to a source close to the Biden family, Democrat operatives conducted a “well-orchestrated” coup against the president, which included allowing him to debate Donald Trump in order “to convince Democrats that he couldn’t run for president.”
- 25th Amendment threats: Once exposed by Trump during the presidential debate, “[o]peratives at the very highest levels of the Democratic Party” threatened to invoke the 25th Amendment to have Biden removed if he would not drop out, according to a party insider.
- Pelosi’s threats: Pelosi reportedly gave Biden an ultimatum to drop out, threatening that it could be done “the easy way or the hard way.” The hard way would have included the former Speaker releasing internal Democrat polling showing Biden being blown out by Donald Trump in the battleground states.
Harris has been waiting: Kamala Harris and her inner circle began plotting a campaign strategy “even before Joe Biden’s disastrous debate” according to a CNN report that cites “several people involved in discussions and thinking about how [Harris] would campaign either with or without Biden.”
Back up: When Harris ran for president in 2020, Democrat voters outright rejected her, with just 3.4 percent support. She ultimately dropped out of the race before the first state primary. Here’s how the NY Times characterized her campaign in 2019:
- “She has proved to be an uneven campaigner who changes her message and tactics to little effect and has a staff torn into factions.”
Ouch.
Big picture: Defects or not, 14.4 million people voted for Joe Biden in this year’s Democrat primaries. Operatives working in the shadows took their votes and handed them to Kamala Harris. No consultation. No votes. No democracy.
