Confidential Memo

Chuck Callesto

Confidential memo reveals Trump campaign began preparing for Biden exit in May.

Exactly one month before Joe Biden's problematic debate performance, a staffer from the Donald Trump campaign circulated a document to senior Trump campaign officials.

The subject line read: “Nominating An Alternative Democratic Presidential Candidate.”

The 11-page memo, marked “CONFIDENTIAL DRAFT” and acquired by POLITICO, detailed various scenarios in which a candidate other than Biden could secure the nomination. The outlined possibilities included: “Biden stepping aside,” an “insider rebellion,” and an “act of God.”

“Something happens and Joe Biden and the [Democratic National Committee] have no choice but to nominate a replacement at the convention or special meeting of the DNC,” the memo says.
