Rumor has it that the reason that Pete Buttigieg and Amy Klobuchar both dropped out of the D race on the same day, right before super Tuesday, is that Obama and the DNC ordered them to drop out and clear the path for Old White Joe.
Obama has been signaling for months that he didn't want Bernie to win the nomination, and apparently now he has personally intervened and meddled in the 2020 D primary. And the DNC is stocked with Obama loyalists, who follow his direction.
IMHO Obama's intervention will prove to be disastrous for several reasons, just as the DNC tilt to Hillary in 2016 didn't work out well.
1. This shows, once again, that the DNC and the D party are a farce. The whole D primary season in 2016 was a farce because the DNC was cheating for Hillary, and now 2020 is a farce because the DNC is tilting to Joe. The D party is not about what the D voters....its about what TPTB in the DNC want. And they wanted Buttiegig and Klobuchar out to help Joe, and so it must be.
2. Second, this move disenfranchises huge numbers of Ds who has already voted in "early voting" in states across the USA for buttigieg and Klobuchar. Their votes literally don't count now, thanks to Obama and the DNC.
3. Third, this move destroys two viable political campaigns. Petey in particular had attracted lots of funding and support, and represented a younger, smarter, and more vigorous alternative to Old White Joe.
4. Petey and Amy had been telling everyone for months that they were the best suited to be the next president, and now we're supposed to just accept that they were lying the whole time and Joe is actually the best?
5. FINALLY....
the whole premise of democracy in the US is that the people get to decide. By pressuring Petey and Amy to drop out, Obama and the DNC have subverted our democracy, taking it upon themselves to decide the election and denying the American people to right to vote and choose their own nominee. No need for you little people to vote. I HAVE DECIDED the D nominee shall be Old White Joe. Bow down and submit!!!!!!
Cheers!
