It’s tough for President Joe Biden right now, to say the least. Ahead of the upcoming presidential election in the United States, voices have been raised within the Democrats that Biden should step aside and carry the torch ahead of the presidential election. So far, about 20 Democrats in Congress and the Senate have openly called on Biden to step aside. And more will likely do so in the coming days, according to sources CBS.
But at the moment it is less about how many within the party support him or not – but who does.

Heavy names should have expressions of concern
Top Democrats Barack Obama and former Speaker Nancy Pelosi are said to have expressed concern in a private conversation about Biden’s chances of beating former President Donald Trump, and the Republicans’ most likely candidate, in the upcoming election, according to party sources to CNN.
And furthermore, the leader of the Democrats in the House of Representatives, Hakeem Jeffries, should have met with Joe Biden last night, without giving him his support, also according to sources of CNN.
– This can happen quickly, if and when this dam breaks. But it has not yet done so, says Fouad Youcefi.
Joe Biden himself has said on several occasions that he will not step aside. Most recently, during a press conference in connection with the NATO summit, he said that he is the most qualified candidate.
– I beat Trump once, I can beat him again.
