Former President Joe Biden abandoned the 2024 presidential election in a Sunday afternoon social media position a year ago, which has since left the Democratic Party in a state of panic when he jumped with a new presidential candidate before undergoing a devastating blow by Maga voters in the urns in November this year.

A year after the Biden de Biden post post sent shock waves through the political spectrum, the Democratic Party is still in shock from the sloppy campaign cycle and found itself in a “cold war”, according to the Democrat Julian Epstein, the former chief lawyer of the magistracy of the Chamber.

“The Democratic Party has concluded a new phase of Cold War, whether or not,” Epstein told Fox News Digital. “On the one hand, we have an increasingly radicalized socialist movement, out of step with traditional voters, according to the policy of the straw of the providence state, addicted to a sectarian neo-racialist identity ideology, and by aligning with the most oppressive movements of the world in the environment. And most of them are not due to a vision of the illustrated world that the West.

While the other side of the party, he said, is “a more moderate wing” which “is part of the new fashion known as” Abundance “.”

“This movement is led by the so-called” Smarties “in the center,” he continued. “It is not that abundance is not an intelligent pivot – this is the case. The problem is that it is too small, too technocratic, too inside baseball for significant reset. And those who direct this alternative vision seem too easily intimidated by the other wing, and in particular the flying monkeys of the progressive left online, every time they go up.

The current state of the Democratic Party followed an unprecedented electoral cycle in 2024 which was thrown into a tailpin when Biden has officially announced that it would not present itself to re -election to the death of summer.

The staff and campaign of the White House of Biden had for weeks after his disastrous on June 27, 2024, a debate against President Donald Trump that the 46th president would remain in the race despite increasing concerns concerning his mental acuity and calls him to withdraw and pass the torch to a younger generation of democrats.

Despite the allies urging democratic voters to “keep the faith” and support Biden, the president published a letter to X who said: “It was the greatest honor of my life to serve as president. And although I intend to ask for re -election, I think it is in the best interest of my party and the country for me.”

Biden shortly later, vice-president Kamala Harris approved the reins of democratic campaign to secure the White House for another mandate, leaving him only 100 days to invigorate the support of the Blue ticket.

Harris failed to increase the support necessary to defeat Trump, losing each of the seven swing states, including the key battlefield of Pennsylvania which carries 19 electoral votes.

In the wake of the elections, the Democrats played a game of blame for the loss, some pointing to the Harris campaign, arguing that the Biden campaign had left them in a pace with only 107 days. Others pointed out Harris’s package, the Democratic Governor of Minnesota Tim Walz, as a small choice to invigorate voters.

Others blamed themselves on the visible behind -the -level push of high -level Democrats to encourage Biden out of the race.

A handful of allies and former advisers from former President Barack Obama have publicly contributed to the accusation by calling Biden to abandon the race in 2024 earlier in summer, especially David AxelrodWho said that Biden “did not win this race”; George Clooney, who called on the president to leave a bomb editorial; And Jon Favreau, who was former director of the Word editorial staff for Obama.

“There is no singular reason why we have lost, but a great reason is that Obama’s advisers have publicly encouraged the democratic intestine struggles to push Joe Biden to go out, did not even want Kamala Harris to manage the candidate, then registered as Savver of the campaign, only the Biden staff declared Politicod for immediate falsification.

Other experts stressed how the Obamas took three days before approving Harris after allegedly encouraged Biden to abandon.

After the immediate reaction on Harris’ electoral loss, the Democratic Party faced the exodus of the working class vote in the GOP, with high -level senators such as John Fetterman from Pennsylvania and Bernie Sanders of Vermont arguing the Democrats made the back of the blue collar.

“It should not be surprising that a Democratic Party who abandoned the working class would find that the working class has abandoned them. While Democratic leadership defends the status quo, the American people are angry and want change,” Sanders told X after the election. “And they are right.”

Fetterman, who was identified several times as the “voice of reason” of the Democratic Party after the 2024 race, argued in February that the party had become “toxic” after years of voters “ashamed and reprimanding”.

“I think their main motto was to be ashamed and to scold and speak to people and to say to them” hey, I know better than you, or you are dopes, or you are a brother, or you are ignorant or, how can you be so stupid? “I can’t imagine it. Fetterman said on a podcast in February.

“And you know, when you are in a state like Pennsylvania, I know and I like people who voted for Trump, and they are not fascist. They do not support the insurrection and these things. And if you go to the extreme, and you become a kind of shop, then you will lose the argument. And we did it.”

The party’s identity crisis has been highlighted by the affirmations that it has gone too far to the left in recent years, in particular on social issues such as transgender questions, even the New York Times editorial committee reprimanding the party in a March editorial.

“Democrats should recognize that the party has moved too far to social issues after Barack Obama left office in 2017. The former video clips of Mrs. Harris that the Trump campaign joyfully replayed prisoners – has highlighted the problem. written at the time.

Obama told the party to “harden” and “stop looking for a quick solution” after the elections.

“I think it will require a little less navel and a little less groans and to be in fetal positions. And that will force the Democrats to harden,” said Obama during a fundraising earlier in July, according to extracts obtained by CNN. “Don’t tell me that you are a democrat, but you are a little disappointed for the moment, so you do nothing. No, that’s exactly the moment you enter and do something.”

The midst of next year is looming in the two political parties. Democrats are involved in the controversy in the New York town hall race, where the socialist candidate of the mayor Zohran Mamdani has locked the Democratic primary in June and has since made an in-depth examination of his distant platform on the left.

Epstein continued that the current “Cold War” of the Democratic Party is also rooted in “dependence” to “anger”.

“It has become a dangerous culture of anger and negativity that has become the public face of the party. The increasingly strong voices seem to be trapped in a permanent primary cry, and sometimes look more like a strange street dance troupe or university demonstrators,” he said.

“This is what happens when the influence of social media rather than governance becomes the northern star of a party,” continued Epstein. “Anger has become the norm on the left, it has become an dependence, a shiboboleth. It is an amazing in progressive monoculture, but it is toxic outside it. Until the party can say ‘` non’ ‘for militant groups, focus more on voters rather than online influencers, and return to the traditional political center as it was in the 1990s, toxic notes Worse.”

While Biden has won his one -year birthday since his abandonment of his race for re -election, Trump celebrated an important stage on his own on Sunday: the six -month anniversary of his second presidency.

“Wow, time is speaking! Today is this sixth anniversary of my second term. It is important to note that it is one of the most consecutive periods of all presidents,” Trump wrote on social networks on Sunday. “In other words, we have done many good and big things, in particular by putting an end to many countries of countries which are not linked to us, apart from trade and / or, in some cases, friendship,” he added on Truth Social. “Six months is not long for having completely rekindled a large country.”
