Een groep prominente donateurs, maatschappelijk leiders en zakenmensen heeft de Amerikaanse president Joe Biden vrijdag opgeroepen zich terug te trekken als presidentskandidaat van de Democraten. Eerder hield Biden opnieuw een zorgelijk zwak optreden.

De Amerikaanse president Joe Biden zei vrijdag tijdens een campagnebijeenkomst dat hij er niet aan denkt om te stoppen. ,,Ik doe mee en ga opnieuw winnen.” Een groep van prominente donoren, maatschappelijke leiders en zakenmensen heeft de Democraat vrijdag een brief gestuurd waarin ze hem oproepen zich terug te trekken als presidentskandidaat. Daarmee wordt de druk op Biden verder opgevoerd.

Zelf zegt de Amerikaanse president Joe Biden na zijn zwakke debatoptreden van vorige week vastbesloten te zijn de presidentskandidaat van de Democratische Partij te willen blijven.

President Joe Biden is now chalking up his fumbling debate performance to a heavy travel schedule ahead of the face-off with Donald Trump — the latest in a series of explanations for an episode that has caused some Democrats to call for him to drop his reelection bid. The president told donors Tuesday that he was offering “not an excuse but an explanation” for his struggles during the debate. “I wasn’t very smart. I decided to travel around the world a couple of times … shortly before the debate,” Biden said at a fundraiser in McLean, Virginia. “I didn’t listen to my staff and I came back and then I almost fell asleep on stage.” His remarks Tuesday marked the latest attempt to explain the poor debate performance and stave off a cascade of Democrats threatening to withdraw support or calling for him to drop out amid questions about his mental acuity at 81, nearly three years older than Trump. He assumed responsibility for what happened on the debate stage, telling donors at the Virginia event that it “wasn’t v...

Joe Biden’s family on Sunday encouraged the president to stay in the 2024 race and privately discussed whether top aides should be fired on the heels of Biden’s stunningly poor debate performance, which has thrown his campaign into turmoil. Biden’s family, including first lady Jill Biden, son Hunter Biden and their grandchildren, convened at Camp David for a previously scheduled get-together and implored the president to keep fighting in his bid for reelection, Biden advisers told CNN. One adviser described the family members as having offered their “unequivocal support.” The family – clearly frustrated with the team that prepared President Biden ahead of his alarming debate with former President Donald Trump – discussed whether any of Biden’s top advisers should be fired and whether campaign staffing changes should be made, one adviser said. Biden, however, is known for being loyal to and protective of his close advisers, and does not like to fire aides. As of Sunday, it did not appear that any major staffin...
