Democratic Party Faces Backlash Over Biden's Removal and Harris's Installation

Jul 21, 2024, 06:39 PM

A significant controversy has erupted within the Democratic Party as party elites are accused of undermining the democratic process during the primaries. Despite Joe Biden winning the Democratic primaries, party leaders allegedly orchestrated his removal to install their preferred candidate, Kamala Harris. This move has sparked widespread criticism, with many pointing to past instances where similar tactics were used, such as in 2016 and 2020 against Bernie Sanders and RFK Jr. Critics argue that this undermines the principles of democracy and represents a shift towards oligarchy within the party.
