Texas Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick (R) pushed a conspiracy theory that a Democratic “deep state” run by Barack Obama is seeking to prevent President Biden from being the Democratic presidential nominee this fall, The Hill reports.
Said Patrick: “I’ve said for over a year many times that Joe Biden would not be on the ticket and Michelle Obama would be the likely nominee. It’s clear the Democrat deep state run by Barack Obama knew they had to take him down to give them a chance in November.”
