The New York Times just dropped an interesting tick-tock on the shocking way in which the Democrat Party forced its duly-elected nominee off the ticket last month. The sequence of events has come out in less detail before now, from Anita Dunn on the record last week.

This doesn’t deliver on that either, but it certainly explains the bitterness Biden has exhibited since. This is as close as it gets to an explanation:
