Biden Faces Rising Pressure to Withdraw

President Joe Biden remains steadfast in his bid for re-election despite increasing calls for him to step aside due to concerns about his cognitive abilities. Recent gaffes, such as mistakenly referring to Vice President Kamala Harris as 'Vice President Trump' and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky as 'President Putin,' have amplified these concerns. Polls indicate that former President Donald Trump leads Biden, with independent voters potentially swinging the election. Despite these challenges, Biden has actively campaigned, emphasizing his legislative achievements and attacking Trump's policies. However, intra-party criticism, notably from groups like the Sunrise Movement, suggests doubts about Biden's ability to energize voters and defeat Trump. Biden's supporters argue that his record speaks for itself, but worry persists about his capacity to serve another term.
