Democratic leaders Schumer, Pelosi, and Jeffries, along with other prominent Democrats, are calling on Biden to drop out of the 2024 race due to concerns about his electability. Polls show that many Democrats want a new nominee, indicating a growing rift within the party.
Biden's recent positive COVID-19 test has further raised questions about his viability as a candidate. Despite the pressure, Biden has thus far rejected calls to withdraw.
The party faces the dilemma of risking a contested convention or potentially losing down-ballot races and endangering democracy itself by keeping Biden as the nominee. While potential successors like Harris lack authority, a surprise candidate could emerge.
Biden's age and health concerns have not been quelled, and even some of his Democratic allies have expressed doubts. The situation is further complicated by the ongoing Democratic power struggle and the party's plan to nominate Biden early despite internal protests.
