Lemire: ‘It’s Almost Hard to Believe,’ But in DNC Autopsy, There Is No Mention of Biden’s Age and Decision to Stay in the Race

EXCERPT:

LEMIRE: “Party officials and strategists began criticizing Martin almost immediately after the report was released, saying the autopsy is missing sections, is filled with annotations questioning its methods, and does not capture fully why the party lost the election. So, Chris Matthews a couple of things here. When this autopsy was outsourced to an outside group to do this, when they handed it back months ago, the DNC was pretty unhappy with it, and that’s why Martin didn’t release it. But there’s been such a groundswell of people saying, 'Hey, we want to see this,' he eventually caved yesterday with a note of apology attached. He’s now facing questions about whether he can hold on to that post. But we should also note what’s missing from this. Like, there’s no — it’s almost hard to believe, but in this autopsy, there is no mention of President Biden’s age and decision to stay in the race. That’s not considered here. Nor is the outrage by so many in the party about Gaza and the anger about the Biden Administration, of which Harris was part of, you know, in their support for Prime Minister Netanyahu and the conduct of his war."
