Following the widely criticized presidential debate between President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump, former Council on Foreign Relations President Richard N. Haas has called for President Biden to step down. Haas expressed concerns about Biden's age, pointing out that he is currently 81 years old and will turn 82 in November, with the possibility of being 86 by the end of his term.
During a panel discussion, Haas emphasized that debating Biden's effectiveness as a president was not the main issue at hand. He questioned whether Biden, given his age, would be able to fulfill the demands of the presidency in the coming years.
Haas, a respected U.S. diplomat, stated that Biden may not be in a position to be a successful president four and a half years from now. He suggested that Biden should be encouraged to step down from his role as President of the United States.
While Haas's comments have sparked debate and speculation, it is important to note that calls for a sitting president to resign are significant and raise important questions about leadership and governance.
As the discussion around President Biden's tenure continues, it remains to be seen how these remarks will impact the political landscape and public perception of the current administration.
