If you thought the Democrat Party was a united front of woke warriors, think again. A bombshell new book, The Truce: Progressives, Centrists, and the Future of the Democratic Party, by Hunter Walker and Luppe B. Luppen, exposes Barack Obama as the puppet master who quietly worked to sink Kamala Harris’s shot at the White House in 2024.
This isn’t just juicy gossip—it’s proof that the left’s sanctimonious “unity” is a sham, and their infighting is a gift to every American who values freedom over socialism. While Harris floundered, Trump roared back into power, and Obama’s scheming only made it sweeter.
According to the book, Obama didn’t just sit back and watch Harris crash and burn—he actively nudged her toward the cliff. After Biden’s trainwreck debate in June 2024, when even CNN couldn’t spin his mental decline, Harris was poised to step up. But Obama, the supposed kingmaker, had other plans. He pushed for an “open convention,” a chaotic free-for-all that would’ve sidelined Harris and let the party elites pick their own savior.
Sources say he was “not convinced” she could beat Trump—translation: he didn’t trust her to carry his precious legacy. Instead, he floated names like Arizona Sen. Mark Kelly and Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro, anyone but the cackling VP who’d spent four years proving she couldn’t handle the border, let alone the presidency.
This wasn’t about strategy—it was personal. Obama’s camp saw Harris as a liability, a DEI hire who stumbled through interviews and tanked in the 2020 primaries with barely 3% support. The book claims Obama’s consigliere, David Plouffe, warned her campaign was “dead in the water,” and Obama himself stayed silent when she needed his endorsement most. Meanwhile, Biden, stubborn as ever, clung to the nomination until July 21, 2024, only stepping aside after pressure from Obama’s crew and Nancy Pelosi’s hammer. By then, Harris was stuck with a rushed campaign, no primary wins, and a party too fractured to rally behind her. Trump, smelling blood, crushed her in November, and America dodged a bullet.
Conservatives should be popping champagne. Obama’s betrayal didn’t just kneecap Harris—it exposed the Democrat machine as a nest of vipers, more interested in power plays than governing. While they bickered, Trump focused on what matters: secure borders, a strong economy, and putting America First. Harris, with her radical record—co-sponsoring Bernie Sanders’s Medicare for All, pushing to decriminalize illegal border crossings—never stood a chance against a movement that’s all about real American values. Obama’s meddling only sped up the inevitable.
The irony? Obama’s still out there playing the wise elder statesman, but this book shows he’s just another politician with a knife in his hand. Harris’s team knew it—some even suspected Michelle Obama might jump in, though she wisely stayed out. In the end, the left’s circular firing squad handed Trump the win, and patriots everywhere can thank Obama for reminding us: with friends like these, who needs enemies? America’s better off with a leader who fights for us, not against his own party.
