We have a flurry of new books about the 2024 election and Joe Biden. It’s nothing new—it’s bread and butter season for some journalists who got sources who were ‘in the know’ on these matters.

Democrats were preparing for Joe Biden to die in office. And if this was the case, why didn’t anyone do anything about it? Mark Halperin, an ex-MSNBC analyst, had the line that shreds the revisionist history of the Democrats on this subject regarding that ‘we all knew’ angle. So did the rest of the country. You didn’t need a tell-all book, Halperin argued. All you needed was a C-SPAN subscription to see that Joe Biden’s mental faculties had degraded immensely.

What he found interesting was how both Barack Obama and Joe Biden felt that Kamala Harris couldn’t win—a half-brain-dead Joe knew Kamala was a loser. The problem was that no one else wanted to run, and Joe stayed on the ticket every day, the stronger Kamala got regarding Democrats viewing her as a successor. We know Obama wanted an open primary, not a coronation. At this stage in the game, no one wanted to be tied to this sinking ship.
