President Joe Biden has admitted that members of the Senate and House from his Party pushed him to step aside from the presidential campaign and allow Vice President Kamala Harris to take his place.

And now former Biden adviser Anita Dunn has spoken to Politico and explained how donors were the main cause of his decision.

“Key moments where people made the decision when it looked like we were reaching a point where we would fight our way through it. I had a lot of Republican friends who were sending me texts during this period saying, ‘Your party is insane.’ They were saying, ‘We’ve never seen anything like this. Our party closes ranks. You know, you fight it through. You have a 24-hour news cycle. He had a bad debate, and you move on,’” the former advisor said.

“They could not believe what was going on here. And then you had this decision that the Democratic Party made to ignore their primary voters and ignore their primary process, and that was a very donor-driven thing,” Dunn said in the interview.

“Do you agree with some of the people who were disappointed about this, that it was essentially a ‘coup?’ Politico asked.

“I don’t regard it as a coup, for a couple of reasons. One is because the vice president was nothing except unremittingly loyal and supportive to the president throughout this, and was fully engaged in the ‘What is your plan? What is our plan? What are we doing next?’” the former advisor said.

“So if you’re going to have a coup, usually someone has to lead it. And she was 100 percent terrifically loyal. I give her remarkable props. Her staff, she made sure there was never a murmur from anyone in that camp, and that takes an enormous amount of discipline and also an enormous amount of loyalty,” said Dunn.
