Biden, 81, says he will serve out remainder of term
Trump says he believes Harris easier to beat
Democratic National Committee plans next steps
Republicans hint at legal challenge to switch
REHOBOTH BEACH, Delaware, July 21 (Reuters) - U.S. President Joe Biden dropped his faltering reelection bid on Sunday, amid intensifying opposition within his own Democratic Party
, opens new tab, and endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris to replace him as the party's candidate against Republican Donald Trump.
Biden, 81, in a post on X, said he will remain in his role as president and commander-in-chief until his term ends in January 2025 and will address the nation this week. He has not been seen in public since testing positive for COVID-19 last week and isolating at his home in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware.
"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.
Democratic National Committee Chair Jaime Harrison said the American people will hear from the party on next steps and the path forward for the nomination process soon. It was the first time in more than a half-century that an incumbent U.S. president gave up his party's nomination.

RNC slams Harris in statement on Biden exiting race
From CNN's David Wright
The Republican National Committee has released a statement on President Joe Biden’s exit from the presidential race, pointedly attacking Vice President Harris.
“Every single failure we’ve seen from Joe Biden – the Afghanistan withdrawal, a border crisis, crushing inflation, and America weakened abroad – has been delivered hand-in-hand with Kamala Harris. Not only would Harris be a disaster in the White House, but she also helped Biden cover up his declining health while in office, which destroys her credibility,” it said.
Biden endorsed Harris as the Democratic nominee shortly after his announcement. A number of Democratic leaders and lawmakers have joined him in endorsing the vice president.

Crooked Joe Biden is the Worst President, by far, in the History of our Nation. He has done everything possible to destroy our Country, from our Southern Border, to Energy Dominance, National Security, International Standing, and so much more. He was annihilated in an Earth Shattering Debate, and now the Corrupt and Radical Democrats are throwing him overboard. He was not fit to serve from the very beginning, but the people around him lied to America about his Complete and Total Mental, Physical, and Cognitive Demise. Whoever the Left puts up now will just be more of the same. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!

Crooked Joe Biden was not fit to run for President, and is certainly not fit to serve - And never was! He only attained the position of President by lies, Fake News, and not leaving his Basement. All those around him, including his Doctor and the Media, knew that he wasn’t capable of being President, and he wasn’t - And now, look what he’s done to our Country, with millions of people coming across our Border, totally unchecked and unvetted, many from prisons, mental institutions, and record numbers of terrorists. We will suffer greatly because of his presidency, but we will remedy the damage he has done very quickly. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!

Re: is Joe Biden dead?
Biden is like Schrödinger's cat -
neither alive nor dead but in a superposition of both states.

Joe Biden is dead after suffering ‘medical emergency’ – reports
Mark Slapinski by Mark Slapinski
July 22, 2024
The president of the United States is reportedly dead, according to several sources.
Joe Biden, the 46th president of the United States, is reportedly dead after suffering a “medical emergency,” according to unconfirmed reports on social media.
Last week, the president reportedly suffered a “full-blown medical emergency” that warranted a “drastic, massive response,” as was reported by Jordan Schatchtel of the Dossier.
Several law enforcement officers on duty that day were informed over the radio that the president was dealing with an unspecified medical emergency. Far from a case of the sniffles, this was sent out on encrypted police airwaves as if something akin to a five-alarm fire had broken out.
Biden has not been seen in public in recent days, fueling speculation that he is either gravely ill or dead. Fact-checking website Snopes issued a fact-check on rumours of the president suffering a medial emergency, declaring the claims “unfounded.”
Reports from mainstream media outlet USA Today contradict recent social media reports, stating in a recent article that Biden’s symptoms have “almost resolved completely” after testing positive for Covid last Wednesday.
While Toronto 99 continues to investigate social media reports,
there is no evidence at this time that Biden is dead.
