Joe Biden's Decision to Step Down
Joe Biden has officially ended his bid for reelection in the 2024 presidential race after facing pressure and fallout from his June 27 debate performance, where his cognitive abilities were called into question.
Pressure from Democratic Party Leaders
Barack Obama and Nancy Pelosi, among others, reportedly told Biden that his path to victory in the upcoming election was greatly diminished, urging him to step aside to avoid risking the party's future.
Calls for Biden to Step Aside
Top Democrats, including former national security officials, signed a letter imploring Biden to drop out for the good of the US, citing concerns about his candidacy and the growing likelihood of a Donald Trump victory.
The Final Straw: Covid Diagnosis
Biden's Covid-19 diagnosis on July 17 was the final blow to his reelection hopes, leading him to cancel campaign events and ultimately announce his withdrawal from the race.
Republican Response and Trump's Nomination
As the Democratic Party looks to find a replacement for Biden, GOP leaders stood united during the Republican National Convention, formally nominating Donald Trump as the party's presidential candidate.
Division Among Democrats
While Trump and his running mate, JD Vance, present a united front, the division among Democrats widened as calls for Biden to step aside grew louder, with concerns about his ability to defeat Trump in the upcoming election.
