‘It’s a Coup’: MAGA World Melts Down Over Biden Dropping Out of Race

Some of the most staunch supporters of former President Donald Trump were indignant on Sunday after President Joe Biden dropped out of the 2024 race and endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris.
Biden announced Sunday afternoon he would immediately suspend his campaign. A short while later, he endorsed Harris – although the upcoming Democratic National Convention will decide the eventual nominee.
Many Trump supporters saw Biden, in his diminished state and with poor polling numbers, was the ideal candidate for Trump to face on Nov. 5. With the Trump campaign now treading uncertain waters, many of his strongest allies on social media lashed out.
Just this morning, Biden’s campaign chair said he wasn’t leaving the race. Then Biden suddenly posts a resignation letter with no address to the country. Wreaks of a coup. https://t.co/snB2iu7qeW

One candidate survived assassination. The other staged a coup. Your choice, America.

Undermining Democracy should never be condoned. They had an election.
They were told he was fine before they voted – and we were told it was simply cheap fakes to think he wasn’t well. https://t.co/fqIl19qpkq

So Biden never had COVID, did he?

They didn’t force Biden out because he was incapable of being President
They forced him out because they didn’t think he could beat Trump

A poetic way to end this year of reckoning with the madness of DEI. It concludes with the DEI Vice President likely becoming the nominee despite not receiving a single vote. Very fitting that the first black female presidential nominee was handed the job and didn’t earn it.

Someone sue the Bidden Harris campaign for a refund and request a preliminary injunction.
That campaign should not be allowed to spend a dollar on Kamala’s behalf until this is fully litigated.

Personally I am most upset that we will not get to see @JDVance1 rip Kamala apart on the vice presidential debate stage now. Out of the pan and into the inferno for her. Trump will have a field day.

Get ready. EVERYTHING is about to be racist again.
Any questions about Kamala? Racist.
Don’t support Kamala? Racist.
Point out facts, her failures, her past…RACIST!

Dear Democrats: your trusted Democrat oligarchs have decided the nominee for you!

Biden said in his shocking statement, “It has been the greatest honor of my life to serve as your President. And while it has been my intention to seek reelection, I believe it is in the best interest of my party and the country for me
to stand down and to focus solely on fulfilling my duties as President for the remainder of my
term.”
In a statement he shared later, Biden said, “Today I want to offer my full support and endorsement for Kamala to be the nominee of our party this year. Democrats — it’s time to come together and beat Trump. Let’s do this.”
