A striking claim has been made ahead of the presidential elections in the United States on November 5th. It has been suggested that due to his health condition and advanced age, President Joe Biden may end his election campaign this weekend. Calls for Biden to "withdraw from the race" have also been made within the Democratic Party, and it has been learned that even former US President Barack Obama is concerned about Biden's candidacy.
The campaign of US President Joe Biden in the presidential election, which will take place on November 5th, is claimed to end this weekend.
Axios news site prepared a report compiling comments that claim Biden was convinced to withdraw due to pressures within the Democratic Party.
"WITHDRAW" CALL TO BIDEN
The report indicated that concerns about Biden's ability to continue his candidacy have grown after the first live debate on CNN with his Republican rival Donald Trump on the night of June 27th, and many Democrats, including Democratic Representative Adam Schiff, supported the "withdrawal call" to Biden.
CAMPAIGN COULD END THIS WEEKEND
An anonymous source said, "I believe Biden will do the right thing. He is moving in that direction." The report claimed that Biden could end his presidential campaign this weekend. Meanwhile, a survey conducted in the US found that 79% of Democrats supported Vice President Kamala Harris being nominated as the presidential candidate if President Biden decides to withdraw from the election.
OBAMA QUESTIONS BIDEN'S CANDIDACY
Former US President Barack Obama was also claimed to have expressed concerns about President Joe Biden's diminishing chances of victory in the November 5th presidential elections and the need to reconsider his candidacy. The Washington Post reported that Obama shared his recent concerns with his close circle. The report stated that Obama spoke to Biden once after the first live debate on CNN with his Republican rival Donald Trump on the night of June 27th, and in that conversation, Obama said that the decision regarding his candidacy was entirely up to Biden.
The report claimed that Obama received calls from many concerned Democrats, and in these conversations, Biden expressed concerns about falling behind in the polls. The report stated that Obama commented that Biden is moving away from the path to victory in the November 5th elections and indicated that Biden needs to reconsider the sustainability of his candidacy.
FIRST LIVE DEBATE AND DISCUSSIONS ABOUT BIDEN'S HEALTH
Democratic Party candidate Biden and his Republican rival Trump, who are competing in the presidential elections on November 5th in the US, shared their views in the first live debate on CNN on the night of June 27th. 81-year-old Biden failed to perform in a way that would alleviate concerns about his age in his second term candidacy and faced intense criticism after the program.
Some Democratic Party members and media organizations supporting Biden called for him to "withdraw from the presidential elections." Biden acknowledged that his health is not the same as before and stated that he is still the best alternative against Trump and announced that he will not withdraw from the race.
