President Joe Biden Bows Out Of Election
On Sunday, July 21, President Biden officially announced his decision to bow out from the reelection race.
The politician confirmed he won’t be on the Democratic ticket in 2024, sharing the news in a detailed statement on X (formerly Twitter).
“It has been the greatest honor of my life to serve as your President. 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 my duties as President for the remainder of my term. I will speak to the Nation later this week in more detail about my decision,” Biden wrote.
Biden also thanked the American people for their support during his presidency and expressed gratitude to Vice President Kamala Harris for her crucial role alongside him.
“For now, let me express my deepest gratitude to all those who have worked so hard to see me reelected. I want to thank Vice President Kamala Harris for being an extraordinary partner in all this work. And let me express my heartfelt appreciation to the American people for the faith and trust you have placed in me. I believe today what I always have: that there is nothing America can’t do — when we do it together. We just have to remember we are the United States of America,” Biden continued.
CNBC reports that Biden’s decision follows increasing pressure from Democrats as well as celebrities like George Clooney urging him to step aside for a new nominee to challenge Republican Donald Trump.
