Barack Obama and Democrat insiders have been accused of carrying out a “coup” after Joe Biden announced his decision to quit the presidential race.
US reporter Neil McCabe said on GBN America that Joe Biden did not want to abandon his presidential hopes but internal party fractions forced his hand.
