Joe Biden is facing increasing pressure to drop out of the 2024 presidential race due to poor polling, concerns about his electability, and his age and fitness. Allies such as Obama, Schumer, and Jeffries have expressed doubts about his chances.

Pelosi has shared data showing Biden losing to Trump. Biden's recent positive COVID-19 test has further fueled discussions about his withdrawal.

The Democratic Party is attempting to fast-track Biden's nomination through a virtual roll call. Discussions about his potential withdrawal are ongoing on Capitol Hill.

Biden's doctor has confirmed that he is experiencing mild COVID symptoms, but his vital signs are normal. The decision for Biden to withdraw could have significant implications for the Democratic Party and the upcoming election.

Biden's Political World in Turmoil

President Biden's political world is collapsing as major donations have fallen off and grassroots fundraising struggles to keep up. Allies are calling for him to step aside, concerned that his campaign risks taking down control of Congress. The campaign expects only 25% of the big donor money originally projected. Biden has tested positive for Covid-19 and has retreated to his vacation home, in stark contrast to former President Trump's appearance at the RNC. Democratic leaders, including Nancy Pelosi, have expressed concerns and some have brought dire warnings to Biden. Despite his public insistence that he's not going anywhere, Biden has shown openness to the idea of stepping aside. His campaign has been marked by stumbles, such as mixing up names and losing his train of thought, and lacks excitement. The future of Biden's re-election bid remains uncertain, and many are speculating that he may have to leave the race.

USA: Barack Obama Loses Confidence in Joe Biden

Former President Obama, along with top politicians Pelosi, Schiff, Jeffries, and Schumer, are questioning Joe Biden's candidacy. Biden has faced criticism after a weak TV debate against Trump and testing positive for COVID-19. He has withdrawn to his private home in Delaware with mild symptoms, belonging to the risk group. There are doubts about Biden's chances of winning the election, and Democrats are calling for his withdrawal. Obama wants to protect Biden's legacy and has spoken with Pelosi about it. The decision about Biden's candidacy lies with him, but Biden is still expressing his ambitions. Public opinion polls show that nearly two-thirds of Democrats believe Biden should withdraw from the race, and only 30% are confident in his ability to serve as president. The events have created a sense of two campaigns heading in opposite directions, with Trump appearing strong at the Republican Party convention. Biden's health issues have also come under scrutiny, with him suggesting that he would consider dropping out if new health problems emerge. Even Biden's allies are struggling to defend him, with Senator Bernie Sanders admitting that Biden has trouble completing sentences. The situation has put Biden's campaign in chaos while Trump's campaign is on the rise.
