Silicon Valley Trump supporter accuses Democratic elites of launching 'coup' against Biden
Craft Ventures co-founder David Sacks, a prominent Silicon Valley Trump supporter, accused Democratic elites of staging a "coup" against President Biden.
Biden continues to face intense pressure to step aside in favor of a younger option atop the Democratic Party’s presidential ticket in the wake of his debate debacle. High-profile Democrats, Hollywood royalty, former Obama staffers and liberal cable news pundits have all called for Biden to drop out, but a new 538 poll using economic and demographic data to explore likely election outcomes still considers Biden the favorite.
"538 still has Biden as the favorite to win reelection. Yet a cabal of party operatives plot to remove him on the grounds that he can’t win. This is a coup against the president," Sacks said on X, reposting an election forecast showing Biden has a 51% chance of defeating Trump.

Sacks’ claim came hours after Axios published a detailed report saying that "very-connected Democrats, mostly veterans of the Obama and Clinton administrations, are plotting hourly to get [Biden] to withdraw quickly."
"They're commissioning polls, lobbying former presidents, organizing donors and taking the fight to Biden in a very public way. They're the unofficial Committee to Unelect the President. The mission: Push Biden out of the presidential race — the sooner, the better," Axios reported.
"This loose anti-Biden network is growing by the day — and is circulating polls showing Democrats would shoot from sure losers to big winners with a new ticket," Axios continued. "Some donors are talking of a massive financial commitment to any non-Biden presidential ticket."
