President Joe Biden has withdrawn from the 2024 presidential race, citing it as “in the best interest of my party and the country.” His decision comes amid increasing pressure from fellow Democrats following a poor debate performance and concerns over his age and fitness for office.
Biden endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris to succeed him as the Democratic nominee, marking a significant shift in the race just months before the election.
