A bombshell new book has rocked the Democratic Party — and it puts former President Barack Obama squarely in the hot seat.
According to veteran political reporter Jonathan Allen, Obama worked against Vice President Kamala Harris as she scrambled to replace Joe Biden on the 2024 presidential ticket. Why? Because he didn’t believe she could win.
“Obama never saw Harris as a winner. That’s the simple truth,” Allen said in an explosive interview with MSNBC. “He didn’t want her on the ticket and pushed for an open primary — anything but her.”
Allen co-authored the newly released book FIGHT: Inside the Wildest Battle for the White House with Amie Parnes, and it paints a devastating portrait of dysfunction at the top of the Democratic Party. The book claims Obama pulled strings behind the curtain to keep Harris from seizing the nomination — even after Biden bowed out under intense pressure.
Obama’s Shadow Moves
Obama didn’t just sit on the sidelines. Allen reports that the former president actively coordinated with power players like Rep. James Clyburn (D-SC), a key kingmaker in the Democratic Party. On the day Biden stepped aside, Obama allegedly arranged a call with Clyburn — but Clyburn smelled the setup.
“He knew Obama was trying to steer things away from Harris,” Allen explained. “So he rushed out an endorsement for her before Obama could get in his ear.”
That five-day delay before Obama and Michelle reluctantly endorsed Harris? It wasn’t indecision. It was resistance.
“He had no faith in her,” Allen said. “He worked behind the scenes for months to stop her.”
Biden’s Warning: “No Daylight, Kid”
As if Harris didn’t have enough enemies in her own party, her own former boss reportedly wasn’t exactly a cheerleader either.
In one stunning moment recounted in the book, Biden personally called Harris before a major debate with a blunt message: “No daylight, kid.”
Translation: don’t step out of line.
Even as he handed her the reins, Biden insisted she protect his legacy — not carve her own path.
“He made it clear that distancing herself would be seen as betrayal,” Allen and Parnes write. “He wanted a shield for his record — not a successor with ideas of her own.”
Harris: “I Wouldn’t Have Done Anything Differently”
Harris, often criticized for lacking vision and authenticity during her campaign, played it safe — perhaps too safe. Even liberal commentators called her campaign flat and uninspired.
When asked on ABC’s The View if she would have done anything differently than Biden in his first term, Harris gave a stunning answer: “No.”
That answer — and her refusal to criticize Biden-era failures — likely sealed her fate with voters.
What This Means for 2028
The revelations from FIGHT confirm what many Republicans long suspected: the Democrats are a fractured party, riddled with infighting and backroom sabotage.
While the GOP rallied behind President Trump and delivered a clear, America First message, the left imploded under its own weight.
If Democrats can’t even trust each other — how can Americans trust them to lead?
