President Biden on Sunday abruptly abandoned his campaign for a second term under intense pressure from fellow Democrats and threw his support to Vice President Kamala Harris to lead their party in a dramatic last-minute bid to stop Donald Trump from returning to the White House.
Peter Baker, the chief White House correspondent for The New York Times, explains what happened as Biden decided to withdraw, and what could happen next.

I really don’t feel like this is what he wanted to do; I’m pretty positive getting such strong influencers in the Democratic Party urging him to step down is what pushed him to do it. I’m proud of him and all he’s done. I hope he knows there are plenty of us out here that appreciate all that he’s accomplished during all his years in service and, personally, I think he did way better than anticipated than when he ran. Was he perfect? of course not, but name ONE who was (besides, maybe Teddy Roosevelt or Lincoln). You did a FANTASTIC time, President Biden, especially considering what you had to follow and all the discord and broken unity of the country and people that are complicit to anti-democracy, etc. I hope you aren’t stepping away feeling undervalued because I know history will remember you kindly. You are GOOD MAN!
Time for Dark Brandon to fully emerge. He’s a loose cannon! Give all the honours and medals to whoever he wants. Executive orders galore! Might as well try to enjoy his last 6 months in office.
“Too old to be President” is very rude. Trump has the energy and the wit worth several Kamalas and Joes put together.
Yeah, he can run like Bolt, he can dunk like Lebron😂
@yuanwu7368 not like he needs to lol
