Everyone except reliably left wing folks knew this, so it's not a shock:

President Biden all but admitted he was pushed out of the presidential race by Democratic Party elites and specifically name-dropped former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi in his first TV interview since the tectonic news last month.

Biden said that Dems in the House and Senate were worried that he’d drag down their chances of being reelected. He said he believed his reelection bid would face too many distractions if he carried on.

“A number of my Democratic colleagues in the House and Senate thought that I was going to hurt them in the races. And I was concerned if I stayed in the race, that would be the topic — you’d be interviewing me about why did Nancy Pelosi say [something] … and I thought it’d be a real distraction,” he told “CBS News Sunday Morning.”

So it turns out that 14 million democrat primary voters could be wrong: if you voted for Biden, well the party thinks you don't matter. Thus the people who really run the democrat party told them to go pound sand and selected a new nominee because mUh DeMoCrAcY.

“Nancy made clear that they could do this the easy way or the hard way,” one Democrat who had knowledge of the private conversations told Politico. “She gave them three weeks of the easy way. It was about to be the hard way.”

Heh. The democrats. The mafia. There's really not much difference between the two.
