Less than four months before the 2024 election, the country finds itself in unfamiliar circumstances when the President announces he will not be pursuing a second term.
The 81-year-old Biden revealed the news in a post he made to his various social media platforms. He made the announcement after realizing he must stand down as president, despite the fact that the position has been the “greatest honor” of his life.
“And while it has been my intention to seek reelection, I believe it is in the best interest of my party and the country for me to stand down and to focus solely on fulfilling the duties as President for the remainder of my term,” said he.

The news, which comes days after the president announced his positive COVID-19 diagnosis, necessitates the selection of a new Democrat by the party to challenge Republican candidate Donald Trump.
After weeks of criticism for his debate performance against Trump last month, Biden made his surprise revelation on Sunday. Many were questioning his capacity to continue as president.

At a private event, Biden tried to assign responsibility to his busy schedule, stating, “I decided to travel around the world a couple of times… shortly before the debate…
I didn’t listen to my staff… and then I almost fell asleep on stage.” Some others, however, still refuse to believe.
British news outlets claim that House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries and Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer met privately with Joe Biden to air their grievances.
A number of famous people, including George Clooney, have publicly demanded that Joe Biden step aside from his presidential campaign.
“I love Joe Biden,” the actor wrote in a New York Times opinion piece. In the capacity of senator. As a vice president and as president.
Not only do I trust him, but I also consider him a friend. Have faith in his personality. Adhere to his principles. He has triumphed in several struggles throughout the last four years.
A few days earlier, Biden expressed his eagerness to “getting back on the campaign trail next week” after recovering from his bout with Covid, demonstrating his unwavering commitment to running.
“The decision is obvious, and the stakes are tremendous. “If we are united, we will succeed,” Biden said on Friday, as reported by BBC News.
