WASHINGTON (AP) — President Joe Biden dropped out of the 2024 race for the White House on Sunday, ending his bid for reelection following a disastrous debate with Donald Trump that raised doubts about his fitness for office just four months before the election.
The decision comes after escalating pressure from Biden’s Democratic allies to step aside following the June 27 debate, in which the 81-year-old president trailed off, often gave nonsensical answers and failed to call out the former president’s many falsehoods. Biden endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris to take on Trump, and encouraged his party to united behind her.
I liked him and sad to see him go. His term was the best I have encountered in life (lets be clear this is in comparison to other presidential terms, not ideals) and I think a large part of that was experience. Especially as vp of obama. I will vote harris and hope she bring the experience she got as vp and continues the administrations work.
I hope she motivates people to vote for her.
I’m feeling like the odds are good even just because she comes off as competent and not ancient. On top of that voting for a female president right after roe vs wade was revoked feels motivating to me, personally.
If anything just to watch the orange fuck explode when he loses to HER
I will make popcorn and enjoy that if it comes to pass
I agree. Best president since Carter. And I didn’t like him at all in the primaries.
me2 if you mean the first primary. I had a similar thing with my current governor. Not wild about him at first but he won the primary and the general. Was pleasantly surprised at his performance.
