Former Democratic Congressional Representatives are urging President Joe Biden to withdraw from the presidential race to allow other candidates to step in. Concerns about Biden's physical and mental fitness have escalated following a turbulent debate performance and ongoing doubts within his own party.

Despite calls for withdrawal, Biden remains resolute in his candidacy, with record fundraising indicating continued support. Some Democrats, like Colorado Governor Jared Polis, believe the debate on Biden's candidacy is valid and urge him to demonstrate a winning strategy to secure victory in November.

While some Democratic leaders, including Hakeem Jeffries, have expressed concerns about Biden's campaign, others like Ashley Judd and George Clooney are actively advocating for his withdrawal to pave the way for a stronger contender, amid fears of a potential Republican resurgence in Congress.

As pressure mounts, the Democratic Party grapples with the delicate balance between loyalty to Biden and the need for a competitive edge in the upcoming election.

Polis said Democrats want to see how Biden will win and what he will do differently, in order to protect democracy and win in November.
