Barack Obama turned as pale as a ghost when he realized this confession about Kamala Harris was caught on camera

Obama echoed what Joe Biden has maintained all along during his appearance at this recent gathering of Democrat elites.

Whether you love him or hate him, no one can deny that Barack Obama is one of the most talented political operators in American history.

One simply can’t go from unknown, radical left-wing Illinois state Senator to President in just a few years without having the talent to avoid the many pitfalls most politicians succumb to.

But that’s why Barack Obama turned as pale as a ghost when he realized this confession about Kamala Harris was caught on camera.

So much regret

The recent passing of Ethel Kennedy – the wife of former Senator Robert F. Kennedy (D-NY) and mother of former Presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. – brought virtually all of the Democrat elites together under one roof with Election Day right around the corner.

That gave President Joe Biden and former President Barack Obama what many believe was their first opportunity to speak face-to-face since Obama reportedly told Biden that Democrats would invoke the 25th Amendment and remove him from office if he didn’t end his re-election bid just hours before the Democrat President gave in on his weeks-long holdout and released a letter revealing he was pulling out of the race.

What they were seemingly unaware of, though, was the fact that C-SPAN cameras were rolling as they attempted to have a private conversation.

On the bright side for Obama and Biden, C-SPAN didn’t have microphones positioned to pick up their conversation.

But much to their chagrin, The New York Post was able to hire a professional lip reader who supposedly broke the code on exactly what they were saying.

According to London-based lip reader Jeremy Freeman, Obama and Biden’s conversation centered around their views on Vice President Kamala Harris’ chances of defeating former President Donald Trump.

And needless to say, it wasn’t great for Kamala.

Freeman suggested that Biden informed Obama that “she’s not as strong as me,” which was reportedly a large part of the reason Biden resisted calls for him to drop out for so long.

They should’ve seen this coming

For his part, after reportedly opposing the idea of handing Kamala the nomination, preferring instead to hold an open Democrat Presidential Primary to find the Party’s strongest candidate, Obama agreed with Biden’s evaluation of Kamala’s candidacy.

“I know – that’s true,” Obama replied to Biden, according to Freeman. “We have time.”

“Yeah, we’ll get it in time,” Biden allegedly responded.

Of course, this isn’t the first time that Biden has alluded to the idea that he always thought he was Democrats’ strongest candidate in a race against Trump.

In an appearance on ABC’s The View – one of his first sit-down interviews since dropping out of the race – Biden continued to argue that he could defeat the former President.

“Look — I never fully believed the assertions that somehow there was this overwhelming reluctance of my running again,” Biden claimed. “I didn’t sense that. And although the polling, they said Biden’s polling was different, the fact of the matter is, my polling was about, always within range of beating this guy.”

“What I did was –– I think there were — it didn’t make sense,” he added. “There were some folks who would like to see me step aside, so they had a chance to move on. I get that, that’s just human nature. But that wasn’t the reason I stepped down. I stepped down because I started thinking about it –– you know… it’s hard for me to even say how old I am.”

Both Obama and Biden had reservations about Kamala’s ability to rise to the occasion as Democrats’ Presidential nominee.

In fact, some believe that President Biden only endorsed her immediately after he ended his re-election bid because he wanted to “stick it” to the Democrat elites who forced him out.

And she’s clearly done nothing to make either of Democrats’ last two successful Presidential nominees feel more confident in her ability to serve as their Party’s standard bearer.
