- Trump has criticized his rival's abilities
- Congressmen have urged Biden to consider stepping aside
- Biden has maintained that he will continue to run
US media outlets report that several Democratic congressmen have privately urged President Joe Biden to consider stepping aside as the party’s candidate for the November election.
During a call with House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, four congressmen reportedly expressed concerns about Biden’s fitness for office, citing his recent debate performance.
While some Democrats have publicly called for Biden to step aside, others continue to support him, arguing that he is the best candidate to defeat Donald Trump.
The debate over Biden’s candidacy is expected to intensify as lawmakers return to Capitol Hill and the president hosts a NATO summit in Washington.
Biden has maintained that he will continue to run, despite concerns about his age and recent debate performance.
Trump, who is three years younger than Biden, has criticized his rival’s abilities and celebrated his own chances of returning to the White House.
