Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi has raised questions about President Biden's commitment to staying in the presidential race, despite his repeated assertions that he will not drop out. Biden recently reaffirmed his determination to continue running for president in a letter to congressional Democrats, emphasizing his resolve to defeat Donald Trump.
However, Pelosi hinted that Biden is still deliberating on whether to remain the nominee, especially as more Democrats express concerns about his candidacy. She emphasized that the decision ultimately lies with the president and urged him to make a prompt choice due to the dwindling time before the election.
While acknowledging Biden's popularity and respect within the party, Pelosi emphasized that the final decision rests with him. She expressed support for whatever choice Biden makes regarding his re-election bid.
Despite Biden's efforts to reassure supporters about his commitment to the race, doubts about his viability as a candidate have surfaced within the Democratic Party. Following a challenging performance in the first presidential debate, eight House Democrats have called on Biden to consider stepping down from the race.
