For the record, Democrats are getting upset at the term “coup” even though the removal of Joe Biden seems like a textbook definition, maybe without the violence. We still have few, if any details, about how Biden went from defiance to acceptance in a matter of hours before he stepped down from the race.

Either way, the “c” word is bothering them, according to The Hill:

President Biden and his allies are pushing back strongly against the claim from former President Trump that Democrats engaged in a “coup” when they urged Biden to step aside, resulting in a change in candidates atop the party’s ticket.

“His stability is still in question,” Biden said Monday when a reporter raised Trump’s “coup” comments.

Sen. Chris Coons (D-Del.), a top Biden ally, was asked during a Fox News appearance Monday about a New York Times column by Maureen Dowd titled “​​The Dems Are Delighted. But a Coup Is Still a Coup.”

The senator called the premise of the column “literally ridiculous.”

“This was the president’s decision. He and he alone had to make that decision one way or the other … The president looked at the polls, he listened to friends and colleagues and he made the decision to step aside,” Coons said.

Are you freaking kidding me? The decision was certainly not Biden’s alone as he had already made up his mind. He was the president, he was the nominee, and everyone please shut up. His campaign was heavily pushing back against the narrative that he should step aside until that fateful weekend after the RNC when it seemed like the entire Democratic Party turned on him overnight.

From the outside, it appears that since Biden wouldn’t go willingly, someone turned the screws and pushed him out.

Whoops, guess not.
