President Joe Biden has dropped from the race for reelection, he announced in a letter on Sunday.
“It has been the greatest honor of my life to serve as your President,” Biden wrote in a post on the social media site X. “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,” Biden wrote.
Notably, he then endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris. California Gov.Gavin Newsom, Hillary Clinton, and Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer are being discussed by Democrats, along with Gov. Shapiro of Pennsylvania are being discussed, as is an open nomination process at the Democratic National Convention.
His resignation letter, which was said to have been drafted for him earlier this week, was posted Sunday:
The announcement came the same day that eight state Democrat parties, including Alaska’s Democrat Party, had affirmed their support for Biden, while over 35 congressional Democrats had already told him they could not support him any longer.
The National Republican Congressional Committee posted a challenge for Alaska Rep. Mary Peltola, who has gone silent over the past month after sticking by her endorsement of Biden.
“Extreme House Democrats, including Mary Peltola, have been twisting themselves in knots trying to ignore the question on everyone’s minds: “Is Joe Biden fit to serve as President?” the Republicans wrote.
“Democrats can’t have it both ways. If Joe Biden can’t handle a debate or a rally, he can’t stand up to Putin or have access to the nuclear codes,” the NRCC wrote. Peltola needs to answer the question, ‘Is the President fit to serve the rest of his term?'”
The presidential race is less than four months away and the Democratic National Convention in Chicago is August 19-22, when the nomination officially takes place.
Trump vs. Harris …
Debates should be quite entertaining.
Fire up the popcorn machine and stock the fridge with cold ones!!!
Poor liberals cry your eyes out.
This should be declared a world holiday.
Hopefully he does not do much more damage to us and the world in these last days of darkness.
Someone needs to remove all the sharp objects around Princess!!
Biden is very clearly unfit to continue in office. Now, without his resignation, Biden becomes a mere figurehead, a barely animated suit, for the next six months. His party will effusively praise him, of course, but Biden’s well-deserved legacy is to be known as the Worst President in U.S. History. The End.
“TOUCHDOWN!!!”

Either they’re having Biden step down because he’s losing in the polls, in which case, they’re definitely not democratic, or they’re having Biden step down because he’s unfit to service, in which case, he should no longer be president.
I’m sure the mainstream media will find ways to gaslight all this, however. Ending democracy is okay as long as the Democratic Party is doing it. They should really change the name of their party. They’re anything but democratic.
How much did Dr Jill get? I’m sure it wasn’t cheap. Ugh, Kamala. They’re going to play the race card now…we could make history, first female to be president, first black female president, etc.
Boy, if Trump loses to Harris in November the MAGA cultists will truly implode.
