Trump Says Biden Withdrawing from Presidential Race Was Result of a 'Coup' by the Democratic Party

Former President Donald Trump said that President Joe Biden's withdrawal from the 2024 presidential race was the result of a "coup" by the Democratic Party.


Trump shared his belief about what happened while calling into Thursday's episode of  “Fox & Friends.”

“I think it was a coup,” Trump said, in no uncertain terms.


The former president continued, “They didn’t want him running. He was way down in the polls, and they thought he was going to lose. They went to him, and they said, you can’t win the race, which I think is true, unless I did something very foolish, which I wasn’t going to do, and I think he was so far down, and they said, ‘You’re not going to win, and you’re not in great shape, and you did poorly in the debate.’ I think the debate started everything.”

Trump stated that he believes former President Barack Obama and former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi were behind the plot to remove Biden from the race.


“I know a lot of people on the other side, too, that they went, and they forced him out between Pelosi and Obama and some others that you see on television,” Trump continued. “It was interesting,” he continued. “I’d watch them on television, and they act so nice. ‘Oh, yes, we loved you — we loved you behind the scenes.’ I know for a fact they were brutal.”

Biden withdrew from the race on Sunday and endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris as the nominee. Within 24 hours she had collected enough delegates to secure the spot of presumptive nominee.
