Co-chair of Biden’s presidential campaign blames Democratic megadonors for president’s departure from 2024 race, demands they now ‘step the f*ck up’ to support Kamala Harris.
President Joe Biden was effectively forced to drop out of the 2024 presidential election by Democratic megadonors who withheld money from the campaign after they “created a self-fulfilling prophecy” of his defeat at the hands of Donald Trump, claims the co-chair of Biden’s now-defunct reelection campaign.
Speaking with CNN on Thursday, Cedric Richmond blasted Democratic donors who cut off funding for the campaign, blaming them for the president’s withdrawal from the race.
“You can’t win without money, and then they were going to point the finger at the candidate. They were going to blame it on Biden,” he said. “For a president that has accomplished so much, it was a no-win situation.”
