Joe Biden withdrew from the US presidential election and launched Vice President Kamala Harris as the Democratic Party’s new nominee, in a surprising move that puts the 2024 race for the White House at risk. Or maybe he’s keeping it safe, we’ll see in the coming days. The 81-year-old Biden has thus stepped aside after weeks of pressure from Democrats following a disastrous performance in the debates, which had caused an unprecedented upheaval in the final mile of a presidential race.
The polls of the last few days were merciless. According to an ABC/Ipsos poll released today, 3 in 5 Americans believed he should step down. “I have always intended to seek re-election, but I believe it is in the best interest of my party and the country to step aside and focus exclusively on fulfilling my duties as President for the remainder of my term,” Biden said in a letter on X. Biden is still recovering from COVID and is spending this time at his beach house in Delaware.
US Vice President Kamala Harris will make her first public appearance in the next few hours since Joe Biden announced his retirement and endorsed Harris ahead of the November presidential election. Harris will speak at an event on the South Lawn of the White House featuring sports teams from across the country that won NCAA (National Collegiate Athletic Association) championships this year.
Trump demands refund for fraud
The Republican Party should be reimbursed for its campaign expenses so far because “now” with Joe Biden’s withdrawal “we have to start over again”. This is what Donald Trump says. “Shouldn’t the Republican Party be reimbursed for fraud since everyone around Joe, including doctors and the fake media, knew he was not fit to run or be president?” Trump emphasizes.
Donation boom with Harris
The American Democratic Party has seen a boom in donations: since Kamala Harris launched her campaign, following the step back of current President Joe Biden, $46.7 million has been raised among small donors. This was announced by ActBlue, the Democratic fundraising platform.
