Biden Bows to Pressure, Quits Presidential Race

President Joe Biden has withdrawn from the November 5 election after facing weeks of intense pressure.

Biden, 81, served as vice president under Barack Obama for two terms and defeated Donald Trump in the 2020 election, becoming the oldest person to be elected to the Oval Office.

Biden’s presidency has been fraught with controversies, particularly concerning his health and fitness. The issue escalated after Trump decisively defeated him in a recent presidential debate.

Despite resisting pressure to quit, Biden announced his decision on his X handle, stating he would remain President until his term ends in January 2025.

Biden endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris as his successor. In his announcement, he highlighted the achievements of his administration, including economic growth, healthcare improvements, and significant climate legislation.

Biden expressed gratitude to the American people and emphasized the nation’s ability to overcome challenges together.

Biden plans to address the nation later this week to provide more details about his decision. He thanked Harris for her partnership and the American people for their trust, reiterating his belief in the United States’ potential to lead.
