President Joe Biden's COVID-19 diagnosis has intensified calls from senior Democrats like Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer for him to consider stepping aside from the 2024 election due to concerns over his ability to beat Donald Trump. Despite the pressure, Biden's campaign chairwoman Jen O’Malley Dillon reaffirmed his commitment to the race, acknowledging recent polling struggles but asserting the campaign's readiness for a close election. Biden's campaign faces significant fundraising challenges and internal dissent from party donors and lawmakers. Amidst this turmoil, Biden is set to return to the campaign trail next week, while Trump prepares to formally accept the Republican nomination following his recovery from an assassination attempt.
