Washington/Berlin. Joe Biden will not run for president. The alleged „chain puller”: Barack Obama. It’s the grind behind the scenes.
She was Political earthquakeJoe Biden, 81, announced on Sunday that he would no longer run as the Democratic presidential candidate. The pressure from his own party in particular was simply too great.
What role did former President Barack Obama (62 years old) play in this? According to the „The New York Times„He was the”Chain Puller(“The puppet master”) of the campaign that ensured Biden’s withdrawal and thus made way for his running mate, Vice President Kamala Harris. At least that’s how the Biden side should see it. Accordingly, Obama, along with Nancy Pelosi, the former Speaker of the House of Representatives, and Chuck Schumer, the leader of the Democratic faction in the US Senate, worked in the background to ensure that the pressure on Biden increased.

Even the New York Times describes the whole thing as „Drama of Shakespearean proportions„. And because Biden – Vice President under President Obama (2009 to 2017) – is disappointed with Obama’s actions, the two are actually linked by a (political) friendship.
Advisor: Obama is following calculations in this drama
In addition, Obama has so far avoided directly endorsing a potential vice presidential nomination for Kamala Harris. The former president’s statement said he had “unusual confidence” in his party that its leaders would create a process “that would produce an excellent candidate.” This also sets Obama apart from party stalwarts, such as the Clintons, who quickly threw their support behind Harris.
Obama appears to be following the same calculus he did in the 2020 primary campaign: He wants to back the candidate the party agrees on. One adviser to the former president told CNN that Obama will closely monitor what Democrats decide and then rally behind the nominee to help unify the party — whether it’s Harris or someone else.
Joe Biden seems to be very disappointed in Obama.
Biden was hailed by his party colleagues after the withdrawal as Selfless hero And the great American president, who drew the consequences after a disastrous televised duel against Trump at the end of June, in the past few days, under the enormous pressure from the Democratic Party establishment described above, it has become increasingly clear that Biden will no longer recover from the consequences of his appearance.
