  Once the big wigs realized Joe was a liability, the Primaries were over.

  The bigwigs knew his mind was gone the entire time.

  I don’t think that was taking the low road as much as it was “Oh Fuck, NOW WHAT DO WE DO?!?”

  Oh no! We set things up so we got the candidate we wanted! Whatever shall we do!?!

      That would be a lie. If you’ll recall, there was a whole movement to vote “uncommitted” in the remaining primaries as a protest.

      Centrists hated it because they hate anything to the left of netanyahu.

        How and where? DC, Montana, New Mexico, and New Jersey were the latest primaries and they were June 6th. Biden dropped out after the forest debate on June 27th.
