President Biden Declares End to Reelection Bid Amid Democratic Concerns
On Sunday, President Joe Biden made a significant announcement, stating he will not seek re-election. This decision follows concerns among fellow Democrats regarding his mental sharpness and ability to defeat Donald Trump, leaving the presidential race in an uncertain state.
Biden took to Twitter to explain his decision: “While I had intended to run for re-election, I now believe it’s best for my party and the nation if I step aside. My focus will be on fulfilling my duties as President for the remainder of my term.”
He plans to address the nation later this week following his decision to withdraw from the re-election campaign.
Biden’s announcement has not included an immediate endorsement of Vice President Kamala Harris, creating turmoil within the Democratic Party just months before the election against Trump.
As of Saturday night, Biden planned to continue his 2024 run, but he informed his senior staff at 1:45 p.m. EDT on Sunday that he would be dropping out, according to a source familiar with the situation.
