Bye-Bye Biden: US President Announces Withdrawal from Presidential Race

Joe Biden is dropping out of the race for the next presidential election. The motives? Doing what is good for the party and the United States, according to the 81-year-old President of the United States.

“It has been the greatest honor of my life to be president. Although I had intended to seek re-election, I believe it is in the best interest of my party and country that I step down and focus solely on my duties for the remainder of my term.”

The beginning of the end has a date – June 27, 2024, the first debate of the 2024 presidential election, in which Trump and Biden competed live on television from CNN’s studios in Atlanta. Biden stumbles, stares into space, looks slow, tired, and inadequate. An image of himself that he had given several times in the past, but at that moment it seemed to everyone that it was finished. In the days that followed, many in the Democratic Party, including governors, put their trust back in the 81-year-old president, but it was clear that the countdown had begun.

Now, after days of pause over covid, Biden, who has repeated endlessly in recent weeks that he doesn’t want to leave, has raised the white flag. The announcement appeared on X social media, where his vice Kamala Harris’s endorsement was posted a little later.

And Donald Trump has not made any concessions. Shortly after announcing Biden’s departure, he reiterated to CNN: “He will be remembered as the worst president in the history of the United States.” And on Kamala Harris: “She will be easier to defeat than Biden,” although it is not yet known whether Harris will actually become the Democratic nominee.
