Pressure mounts for President Joe Biden to drop out of Democratic campaign
President Joe Biden is facing increasing pressure to drop out of the Democratic Party campaign for President, both from the public and within his own party. Despite growing concerns about his debate performance against former President Donald Trump and questions about his mental fitness, Biden has vowed to continue running for re-election.
During a surprise appearance on a Democratic National Committee call, Biden, along with Vice-President Kamala Harris, gave a pep talk to reassure party members and stress the importance of the upcoming election. White House chief of staff Jeff Zients also urged staff members to ignore the “noise” and focus on governing.
While the editorial board of the New York Times has published an op-ed suggesting that Biden should step down to serve his country, his family has urged him to stay in the race. Discussions have taken place about potential changes to his campaign team following recent turmoil.
Despite the mounting pressure and concerns about his ability to compete against Trump, Biden remains defiant in his decision to continue running for re-election. As the media storm surrounding his candidacy grows, the President faces a challenging road ahead in his bid for a second term in office.
