New York Times’ Maureen Dowd says Dems staged ‘coup’ against Biden

New York Times opinion columnist Maureen Dowd wrote an article on Saturday in which she emphasized that despite the renewed excitement surrounding the Democratic Party's decision to replace President Joe Biden as their nominee in the upcoming election, the party’s actions should still be seen as a “coup.”

Dowd agreed that the decision to replace Biden was necessary, arguing that he was unlikely to be able to campaign effectively or serve another full term in office. She noted the dramatic shift in the party’s plans for the convention, which had initially been expected to feature Biden as the nominee. Instead, there is now a new sense of optimism and excitement with Kamala Harris stepping in as the Democratic nominee.

In her column, Dowd highlighted the abrupt change among Democrats who had previously supported Biden but later conspired to push him out of the race. She described how many of these Democrats had to admit on cable news that they had been unable to reach the president, who was reportedly sulking.

"Democrat after Democrat who had been close to Biden before conspiring to push him out had to confess to cable anchors that they had not been able to talk to the president, who was sulking in his tent,” she wrote.
