The bitter Biden-Obama intraparty war

Apparently, the media hasn't told us about the workings of the White House. I'm not talking the media's cover-up of Biden's cognitive decline, either. I'm talking about the bitter feud between Joe Biden and Barack Obama. The Washington Free Beacon is reporting that there's a major feud between Barack Obama and Joe Biden.

According to the Beacon's reporting, "Years later, Trump's odds of becoming president would dramatically increase when Obama tapped Hillary Clinton, one of the worst politicians (and least likable human beings) in American history, as his heir apparent" In an earlier instance of poor judgment, Obama had picked Joe Biden as his running mate because, among other reasons, he thought Biden was too old and unambitious to consider running for president again. "Biden never forgave Obama for anointing Hillary Clinton as the Democratic nominee," writes journalist Chris Whipple, author of Uncharted: How Trump Beat Biden, Harris, and the Odds in the Wildest Campaign in History."

That anger stayed at that low simmer until Obama and Pelosi sabotaged Biden's reelection campaign:

"Biden had never gotten over the affronts, and he no longer trusted Obama’s political judgment," Allen and Parnes write. "After Hillary’s shattering 2016 loss, Biden told everyone who would listen that he would have beaten Trump and that Obama had been wrong. In his mind, Obama was responsible, in no small part, for Trump’s presidency." When the 2020 election started gearing up, Obama was just as dismissive toward Biden. "You don't have to do this, Joe, you really don't," he told his former running mate. Obama was far blunter behind Biden's back, warning fellow Democrats not to "underestimate Joe's ability to fuck things up." (For once, he was right.) In the run-up to the campaign, Politico reported, Biden started "making a show of reading articles about Obama world’s interest in others. 'You believe this shit?' he’d ask aloud."

This is what ignited the feud:

Obama was reportedly telling people that it "made the most sense" for Biden to only serve one term rather than "test fate again at eighty-one years old," according to Allen and Parnes. As president, Biden was obsessed with outshining his former boss. He would celebrate perceived accomplishments by saying, "Obama would be jealous." Biden was hardly alone in his resentment of Obama and his minions. His inner circle, including Dr. Jill, was just as driven by their spite.

Biden and Obama are 2 of the most fake politicians in recent history. Apparently, their friendship is fake, too.
