Abstract

President Joe Biden faced skepticism and calls to drop out of the race despite surviving a critical day of his campaign reset. In a prime-time interview and a rally in Wisconsin, Biden declared his intention to remain atop the Democratic ticket and defeat former President Donald Trump. However, voters, donors, and Democratic allies will spend the coming days weighing whether Biden's determination is justified or delusional. Efforts to push Biden to exit the race are underway, with lawmakers and activists questioning his health and fitness for office. Despite these challenges, a recent poll shows Biden narrowing the gap with Trump in battleground states. The road ahead remains perilous for Biden, with campaign stops in Pennsylvania and a NATO summit in Washington, where his age and acuity will likely be scrutinized. [Extracted from the article]
