Joe Biden Withdraws from Presidential Race in Last-Minute Decision
Rehoboth Beach, DE (XMN News) – In an unexpected and historic move, President Joe Biden announced his withdrawal from the presidential race on Sunday. The 81-year-old president, who was isolating with COVID-19 at his $3.4 million home in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware, composed a letter with his dwindling inner circle, stating it was time to step aside.
The decision came amid mounting pressures, including the withdrawal of millions of dollars in donor funds, an increasing number of Democratic voices urging him to drop out, and polling data indicating a declining chance of defeating Donald Trump after a disastrous debate performance.
First Lady Jill Biden was present when the president made the momentous decision, yielding to the growing demands. The abrupt announcement caught many White House staff and members of his re-election campaign off guard.
Speculation abounds regarding the factors that ultimately led to Biden’s decision. Sources indicate that Biden has been suffering from dementia, raising concerns about his cognitive health. This development casts a spotlight on the challenges faced by the president in recent months.
As the political landscape rapidly shifts, the Democratic Party must now grapple with the implications of Biden’s withdrawal and strategize for the upcoming election.
