TWO-FACED Barack Obama has stabbed his former vice president Joe Biden in the back by secretly rallying congressional support for his wife Michelle’s presidential quest — despite having publicly backed his ex-veep for a second term, political insiders dish.
Sources say the 61-year-old former commander-in-chief was caught red-handed hosting a series of hush-hush meetings with Democratic congressional bigwigs and former administration staffers at his Washington, D.C., office to secretly test support for Michelle.
“Barack recognizes the gravity of the situation with Joe’s disappointing poll numbers,” says a Beltway insider. “He had hoped that the president would have rallied and come into his own at this point, but that clearly hasn’t happened.
“With 2024 growing closer and closer, he had to act since he apparently fears Joe is getting too old and frail to win.”
Officially, the stated purpose of the closed-door meetings, conducted over cheese and crackers, was for Barack to give advice, get to know the younger Democratic lawmakers, and reacquaint himself with what they were hearing in their home districts, the source snitches.
