The power play is here.
Former president Barack Obama has raised questions about the structure of President Biden’s reelection campaign, discussing the matter directly with Biden and telling the president’s aides and allies the campaign needs to be empowered to make decisions without clearing them with the White House, according to three people familiar with the conversations.
Obama grew “animated” in discussing the 2024 election and former president Donald Trump’s potential return to power, one of the people said, and has suggested to Biden’s advisers that the campaign needs more top-level decision-makers at its headquarters in Wilmington, Del. — or it must empower the people already in place. Obama has not recommended specific individuals, but he has mentioned David Plouffe, who managed Obama’s 2008 race, as the type of senior strategist needed at the Biden campaign.
David Plouffe also remained Obama’s senior advisor who headed his internal comms strategy. He then became Obama’s point man for warning Biden to stand down and let Hillary get the nomination.
I don’t know how compos mentis Biden is, but I can only imagine his teeth gritting at the mention of Plouffe.
Biden’s weakness has really brought out the vultures. As I wrote recently, Biden had turned to Hillary Clinton for help.
Hillary Clinton is hosting fundraisers for Biden and making the case for him to Democrats. The Clintons won’t spit in your face for free and acting as a campaign surrogate comes with a high price. That’s why Hillary is now suddenly back on the world stage, meeting with foreign leaders and why her aides are showing up in the Biden campaign. Dennis Cheng, the vice president of the Clinton Foundation, is now going to be Biden’s deputy political director, tying together the Biden campaign and the Clinton moneymaking operation.
Now Obama showed up to name his price for a piece of what’s left of Biden’s soul.
Why is this story appearing in the Washington Post? Obama’s people are applying pressure on Biden’s people by way of putting the word out to Biden’s donors.
Obama also recommended that Biden seek counsel from Obama’s own former campaign aides, which Biden officials say they have done, the people said.
No doubt.
Biden’s people are worried about being displaced. A campaign shakeup and a hijacking followed by Obama’s people taking over.
This is really a pitched battle over who gets to be the hand inside an elderly and increasingly less functional puppet.

I never cared that Lord Barackkk (pbuh) is gay and married to a man. That’s between Him and him.
JL says
It used to be, former Presidents refrained from meddling in politics. But then, we’ve never had a former President with less class and such hatred for America.
RAM says
Obama is not just some recent arrival. His team has been programming Biden and Biden’s campaigns for years.
Kasandra says
Not to mention his entire administration.
Jeff Bargholz says
Brokebutt Hasbeen Obama couldn’t program a third grade schoolbook, much less the federal government. How stupid does a person have to be to think that incompetent moron is a mastermind?
You’re idiots.
Onzeur Trante says
Of course Barack Hussein is involved in 2024. Michelle will. be the second shadow president for Barack this election. Stay tuned this summer. That’s where this is headed.
Beez says
It’ll be BO+MO v. Newsome for the Dem nom.
Jeff Bargholz says
Big Mike couldn’t get elected as a town dog catcher. For every idiot who loves her there are ten normal people who hate her ugly guts.
And we hate idiots like you, too. You make the world a worse place.
Jeff Bargholz says
Big Mike couldn’t be a shadow for a wet fart. The Obamas my be big at Netflix but they’re tiny everywhere else.
CRETINS.
Bob Meyer says
Doesn’t Obama need a beer hall for this kind of maneuver?
How long will it be before there is a “Night of the Long Knives” to consolidate control under Obama?
Jeff Bargholz says
Longer than a night. Brokebutt is a Hasbeen and the majority of Americans hate him.
SPURWING PLOVER says
Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum
Beez says
Both Satanists.
DC says
The Deep State will STEAL the 2024 election GUARANTEED.
DOJ/FBI/CIA/HMS etc. etc. will do whatever it takes to keep Trump out of the White House.
Obama is already calling the shots in terms of DEM policy.
But he wants Biden to look respectable and run a campaign that maximizes plausible deniability when the DEMS hi-jack the 2024 election.
It’s about APPEARANCES……….Obama already knows who will win.
Beez says
They’ll send DJT to prison after GOP convention.
Jeff Bargholz says
They’ll probably execute him.
Kynarion Hellenis says
Stealing was easy and successful. When do human beings, untethered by Christian morality, ever give up a successful strategies like lying and stealing?
This time, maybe they can try it without determining a global pandemic or other faux emergency?
Chutzpan says
Obama’s puppet-on-strings Biden hasnt been following all that his handler has instructed him to do – especially to abandon Israel in its time of need.
Obama is worried as he knows that if Biden loses the election, Obama’s chance of his 4th term (from behind the curtain) will be ruined.
Hillary hopes to garner attention and voters’support by grabbing the spotlight in any way she can (even as a quasi-supporter of Biden) -in order to show off her superior cognitive abilities and have Biden look bad in comparison. At the last minute, she’ll then either be the write-in candidate of choice, or Biden will get “disappeared” and she will be the favorite replacement.
DOG EAT DOG is the name of the game when the Dems unleash their dispicable antics on each other
Justin Swingle says
UNSUBSCRIBED.
DELETE THIS NAME FROM YOUR SYSTEM

Fred A. says
Don’t be surprised, if Mrs Obama is drafted to replace Biden on the ballot. Better yet, she could announce she will run for that office and give Biden a big headache. Biden might have to be hospitalized and conduct his campaign from there instead of his basement. Anyway, the taxpayers will pay the hospital bill in full. We can hope he decides to retire to his home and assist illegal aliens in his state by buying bus tickets for them to Texas.
A little humor for the evening.
