Top Biden Officials Urge Him to Withdraw as Isolation Grows


President Joe Biden Facing Calls to Abandon Re-election Bid, Sources Say

President Joe Biden is facing increasing pressure to abandon his campaign for a second term, with many senior-ranking White House and campaign officials privately believing that it is time for him to step aside. In interviews with CNN, sources familiar with the dynamics inside the West Wing and campaign have revealed that there is widespread acceptance that Biden remaining in the 2024 race is no longer tenable.

The president, who has become increasingly isolated and insulated since a disastrous debate performance on June 27, is surrounded by a tight circle of advisers, including longtime aides Mike Donilon and Steve Ricchetti. Despite mounting concerns about the viability of his candidacy, Biden and his inner circle continue to insist that he will remain the Democratic nominee.

However, as the mood in the White House and campaign turns to deep despair, with staff questioning the leadership and their own professional futures, Biden is said to be in a “contemplative stage” as he isolates in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware. Sources close to the president have indicated that he is receptive to arguments to step away from his reelection bid, but any decision is likely to be carefully considered and may not come before the weekend.

The uncertainty surrounding Biden’s future has left many Democrats frustrated, as they wait to see how events will unfold. If Biden does decide to step aside, a series of cascading events would be set into motion, requiring time for officials to prepare. Additionally, there are concerns that Republicans may call for Biden to resign the presidency if he chooses not to seek reelection, adding further complexity to the situation.

As the pressure mounts on President Biden, the White House is fielding a steady stream of messages from Americans, including Democratic voters like Terri and John Hale, who have expressed their respect for the president but believe that his age and perceived limitations are hindering his campaign. With the fate of his candidacy hanging in the balance, Biden’s decision in the coming days could have far-reaching implications for the future of the Democratic Party.
